Synopsis

CATIA V5-6R2012 for Designers is a comprehensive textbook that introduces the users to CATIA V5-6R2012, the feature-based 3D parametric solid modeling software. The software works on cross platform that creates a link for Catia V5 and V6 users. This textbook provides a simple and clear explanation of tools in widely used workbenches of CATIA. About 43 mechanical engineering industry examples are used as tutorials and an additional 40 as exercises to ensure that the users can relate their knowledge and understand the techniques used in the industry to design a product. After reading the textbook, the users will be able to create solid parts, assemblies, surface models, Sheetmetal components, different mechanisms, and drawing views with bill of materials. Also, the users will learn the editing techniques that are essential for making a successful design. Additionally, the author emphasizes on the solid modeling techniques that improve the productivity and efficiency of the users. Written with the tutorial point-of-view and the learn-by-doing theme, the textbook is ideally suited for learning at your convenience and at your pace. Some of the Salient Features of this textbook are as follows: Consists of 17 chapters followed by student projects that are organized in a pedagogical sequence covering all important workbenches of CATIA V5R21 such as Sketcher, Part Design, Assembly Design, Drafting, Wireframe and Surface Design, Generative Sheetmetal Design, DMU Kinematics, and FreeStyle. The chapter on FreeStyle will enable the users to create innovative designs using the surface editing techniques. The first page of every chapter summarizes the topics that are covered in it. Real-world projects and examples are provided that focus on industry experience. Step-by-step examples are provided to guide the users through the learning process. Additional information is provided throughout the textbook in the form of tips and notes.
