CATIA V6R 2009

Achieve product excellence with CATIA V6R2009x, providing unmatched realism to bring virtual 3D close to real product, and World class collaboration tools to tighten CATIA communities around the 3D media. CATIA V6 puts 3D collaborative innovation at the heart of the enterprise and helps accelerate companies’ transformation toward a full PLM 2.0 approach, thanks to ground-breaking collaboration tools enabling 3D brainstorming.

CATIA V6R2009x Highlights
- Extensions to Dassault Systemes’ award-winning collaborative 3D environment, allowing an unlimited number of online users to participate with immersive video conference in virtual 3D brainstorming, leveraging the collective intelligence of geographically dispersed teams.
- Collaborative Design enables people to share new features in real time as well as asynchronously even with offline people, supporting a “design anywhere, build anywhere” strategy.
- Unique real time rendering capabilities with new materials, new effects, and paint shaders for heightened realism of virtual products through the entire V6 portfolio.
- The availability of knowledgeware beyond the design domain, to all disciplines, allows to capture/capitalize, to reuse and to enforce/automate companies’ best practices. CATIA V6R2009x delivers 2 new products to support creation and usage of companies processes templates, and accelerates design automation.
- Systems engineering improvements for virtual simulation of the system within the 3D mockup are provided, in particular, by adressing the growing trend of electronic content in all industries.
- Thanks to the “engineering connection” unified model, user can specify once any connection information such as part mating, FTA, etc. and reuse them across multiple disciplines spanning from assembly, to kinematics and structural analysis.
- CATIA Virtual Product Management, which allows for management of the product model at the right level of granularity, now provides automatic and intelligent data loading/unloading for unmatched performance during assembly updates.
- Two new composite design approaches, “grid” and “solid”, for optimized design and mating with structural parts.
- Support for collaborative V4/V5/V6 design scenarios enables gradual adoption of V6 for an OEM and its supply chain.
- CATIA Mechanical delivers new kinematics simulation to enable collaborative multi-discipline engineering on the single IP platform.
