[CATIA] Lattice Designer

Functional Value

Unleash your creativity with lattice structure design driven by algorithmic generation of structural network. A network of bars published as a feature by the CATIA Visual Script Designer role can be reused as input of the CATIA Lattice Designer role, to produce the geometry, down to simulation and manufacturing preparation.

Description of the overall workflow. The Lattice Specification operator produces a Lattice Structure feature in a Design Sequence (Bullet 1). The Lattice Structure feature is then reused to automatically initialized the design with the Lattice Design assistant of the Lattice Design app. (Bullets 2 and 3). The geometry of the design is then produced with the Lattice detailed design step of the assistant (Bullet 3)

What's new in the CATIA Lattice Design app: the Lattice Design assistant enables the automatic initialization of the lattice design from a Lattice Structure feature thanks to a new "Create From" option.

What's new in the CATIA Lattice Design app: the lattice definition is enhanced with a "Custom option" that enables the usage of a Lattice Structure feature produced by the CATIA Visual Scripting app.
