- Beginners interested in CAD softwa
- Students and researchers working on design and manufacturing projects.
Requirements
- Basic Engineering Knowledge – Understanding of mechanical design concepts and 3D modeling principles will be helpful.
- Familiarity with CAD Software – Prior experience with any CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks) is beneficial but not mandatory.
- Basic Computer Skills – Ability to navigate software, manage files, and perform basic troubleshooting.
- Interest in Automation & Scripting – No prior coding experience is required, but basic programming logic will help when learning CATIA scripting.
- Python Basics (Optional) – Some scripting will be done using Python (PyCATIA) or VBScript, so knowledge of Python or VB can be an advantage.
Description
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to Computer-Aided Design (CAD), with a focus on CATIA, a leading 3D modeling software used in aerospace, automotive, and industrial design. You will learn the fundamentals of 3D modeling, assembly design, and drafting while exploring powerful automation techniques using scripting.Through hands-on exercises, you’ll gain practical experience in creating parametric models, automating repetitive tasks, and enhancing productivity using VBA and Python scripting. By the end of the course, you will be able to design complex models efficiently and customize CATIA to meet specific project requirements.
