[CATIA] Composites Designer for Industrial Equipment

Functional Value


1. Generate a Top Surface for a given layer of the composites plies stack-up in order to streamline the creation of geometries required for interfaces with other parts
2. Generate the Top Surface from Virtual Stacking for the cured or uncured thickness of plies
3. Enrich the grid design process with the ability to display information on the grid with a colorization of the cells
4. Manage complex manufacturing notches thanks to the dart command now allowing multiple points or an explicit curve as geometrical input
5. Streamline the creation of cut-pieces thanks to the ability to create splicing curves directly from the 3D Multi splice command
6. Automate the smoothing of the Top Surface from Virtual Stacking and Top Surface from Iso Thickness Area thanks to a dedicated auto fillet command
7. Ensure a proper fiber alignment of cut-pieces of plies with the automatic creation of producibility with double guide curve
