CATIA’s Composites Design App functionality, reinforced by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, puts Dassault’s solution at the top of the industry. To see the full power of the solution, it is essential to understand the different processes and how they benefit the user. When designing composites in CATIA, the process is broken down into stages. Furthermore, different methods can be utilized to streamline the design process based on the application. This video offers an overview of the fundamentals and process for designing composite parts in 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA.
