Trang 5The Version 5 Part Design application makes it possible to design precise 3D
mechanical parts with an intuitive and flexible user interface, from sketching in an
assembly context to iterative detailed design Version 5 Part Design application will
enable you to accommodate design requirements for parts of various complexities, from simple to advanced
This application, which combines the power of feature-based design with the flexibility
of a Boolean approach, offers a highly productive and intuitive design environment with multiple design methodologies, such as post-design and local 3D
parameterization
As a scalable product, Part Design can be used in cooperation with other current or
future companion products such as Assembly Design and Generative Drafting The widest application portfolio in the industry is also accessible through interoperability with CATIA Solutions Version 4 to enable support of the full product development process from initial concept to product in operation
The Part Design User's Guide has been designed to show you how to create a part
There are several ways of creating a part and this book aims at illustrating the

Basic Tasks
The basic tasks you will perform in the Part Design workbench are mainly the creation of features and surfaces you will use to create your part To create features you will
sometimes sketch profiles first or use existing features

Trang 37Opening a New CATPart Document
The Part Design workbench document is divided into:
● the specification tree
● the geometry area
● specific toolbars : for information, please refer to Part Design Workbench
a number of contextual commands available in the specification tree and in the geometry Remember that these commands can also be accessed from the menu bar
You will notice that the application provides three planes to let you start your
design Actually, designing a part from scratch will first require designing a sketch Sketching profiles is performed in the Sketcher workbench which is fully integrated
plane of your choice
The Sketcher workbench then provides a large number of tools allowing you to
sketch the profiles you need For more information, refer to CATIA-Dynamic
Sketcher User's Guide Version 5.

Sketch-Based Features
Features are entities you combine to make up your part The features presented here are obtained by applying commands on initial profiles created in the Sketcher workbench (See CATIA-Dynamic Sketcher User's Guide Version 5 ) or in the Generative Shape Design
workbench (See CATIA Generative Shape Design User's Guide Version 5) as well as surfaces
Some operations consist in adding material, others in removing material In this section, you will learn how to create the following features:
parameters you need in the dialog box
or Pocket dialog box and select the Go to Profile Definition contextual command to display the Profile Definition dialog box
