CATIA 사용 후기 및 리뷰

A widely renowned computer-aided design software.

주석: CATIA is not the software that I strongly appreciated compared to SolidWorks, which I really liked and find much more suitable for my current work.

장점:

What I really love about CATIA is its ability to handle complex three-dimensional models and seamlessly manage the entire design process from conceptualization to manufacturing. CATIA greatly assists me in my mechanical designs and to some extent in electrical designs as well.

단점:

I used CATIA for less than 6 months, and then I switched to SolidWorks because it is the software that best suits my needs in mechanical design.

Perfect for Designing

주석: It is a great software and very easy to use and teach interns on

장점:

The User interface is very easy and has many customization options. Can be used easily by new people.

단점:

It is a little expensive and given too many toolbars even if you dont need it

Catia Enovia V6 review

주석: I create large motor boats with large assemblies and i use Catia and NX on a daily basis. I have no problem managing the boat and the parts but when it comes to modelling in Catia i find incredibly tedious and very time consuming. Some days are very frustrating using this software as it is still very buggy. And when i contact helpdesk, they just reply 'oh yes, we know about that. This will be fixed in the next version!*

장점:

Managing large assemblies is particularly good with Enovia V6. I frequently open large assys containing up to 3-4000 parts (some of these individual parts are even 500MB each) and i have no problem with rotating the model with too much lag. The perspective view and general rendering of the parts is very good and quite impressive compared to other top CAD engineering packages.

단점:

Catia is not an easy package to learn. The UX is very over complicated and you really have to be shown by another user how to grasp the endless mouse clicking menus as they are not straight forward. After using Siemens NX for 10 years and then having to learn Catia was a nightmare. Catia takes far longer to model compared to other CAD packages. After 1 year with NX i didnt have a problem with creating anything, it was very reliable and I knew i could have a solution within a certain period of time. With Catia i never know how long something will take. It is far more unstable and it crashes very frequently.

Probably the best software for product design and surface modelling

주석: If you're in automotive industry and not have your own design tool; then Catia is your must to use design software. It is the most complex and capable design tool and perfect for surface modelling. Yes it is not much user friendly and hard to become an expert user; but these doesn't enough to drop Catia V5 from number one seat...

장점:

I'm working with Catia V5 for a long time. I've used other programs such as Solidworks as well; but Catia is the best by far due to it's features. Catia is the most complex tool for part design and assembly management. For instance creating complex large surfaces with Catia (which is a must for automotive industry) is really easy thing to do. Variety of manipulating tools (turn, pan, rotate, etc.) makes you to easily view or manage the designed part. There are several modules which you can add many features to your part when managing the design. There are several material libraries to use for your product. Product tree is detailed and let you to manage the design steps e.g. to make parametric design. Catia is very powerful and fast; but sure you do need a good hardware as well. Creating 2D drawing is a bit complicated; but can be managed easier when you got used to it.

단점:

Probably biggest drawback for Catia is that you really need to spend years to become an expert user (not designer). It's a bit complicated compared to some other design tools. Mouse function is a bit hard to control - for example you need multiple buttons to rotate. Also interface is a bit old fashioned. V5 had many upgrades so far; but I assume it's time for V6 now for a better outlook. 2D generation module is really poor; therefore we mostly use other tools to create 2D's. License fee can be an issue for personal or small company usages.

Comprehensive software for CAD modelling

주석: If you want to deal with complex designs, extended surfaces; e.g automobile body structures, this is the software to use. However for less complex part or tool/mold designs you may prefer Solidworks due to its cost advantages.

장점:

The best thing for Catia V5 is for sure the high capability for surface modelling. Complex surfaces can be designed easily with the extensive library and the functions Catia provide. That's why this is the #1 software used in Automotive for creating the designs. There are lots of features to shape your design product. Creating assemblies and defining movement for the assembly structures also possible and can be managed easily after some experience. If you know parametric design principles, Catia can work wery well with this principle. There is also a broad material library available for your selection, you can even add new material or properties.

단점:

Probably the first and the only thing to mention about Catia V5 is the interface. Although I like to use Catia due to its extensive features; I do not like the somehow retro interface, ribbon and menu designs. Therefore main screen makes you feel little bit uncomfortable. More than this, I think Catia has does not have cons to mention.

Accurate and best design software for design engineers.

주석: The CATIA helps our organization to create part modelling and assembly modelling as per requirements with short period of time. We can do the analysis of the design helps us to avoid problems during production. The designs can be easily edited according to changes in specifications is the most useful feature.

장점:

The CATIA is one of the best software for designing engineering drawings as per specifications with great accuracy. The software is helpful for design the products in 2d and 3d. We can do part modelling as well as assembly modeling with realtime editing is a great feature. The software help our organization to create design of the products within short period of time.

단점:

We didn't noticed any missing feature during our use.

CATIA software has provided me best ways for development and it is easy to model complex designs.

장점:

CATIA is an excellent software that has make our job work too easier. CATIA software offers large number of functionalities that is linked with other CAD softwares.With best manufacturing tool opportunity,it enables us to design complex parts. CATIA provides the fantastic space for user.It has unique fuctions for designing products. Moreover one can simulate the production.

단점:

Learning curve of CATIA software is quite higher and it is indeed most intuitive software.In the beginning it's layout seems to be quite difficult but when we have good command on basic functions then CATIA becomes easier for us within a few days and it can be done quite efficiently. Sometimes CATIA software takes a lot of time in downloading files but it is a minor issue.

Awesome solution fitted for your part and assembly design needs

주석: CATIA works well for modeling complex designs and dealing with assemblies, and also helping with analysis for production line assembly and manufacturing through stamping, molding, injection, and others. CATIA also integrates very well with Teamcenter, the PLM software which we use in our company, making it easy to upload files and dealing with approval processes for new designs - although the time it takes for loading parts and saving could be reduced to improve productivity.

장점:

Easy modeling with production steps in mind; Surface modeling is pretty intuitive and makes possible to design complex geometries faster; Model edit is practical, making possible to edit a geometry parameter and rerun the program to have the new parameters ready; CATIA works very well for assemblies too, it makes possible to easily attach parts and bind specific parameters, also to hide parts that are not desirable for the analysis.

단점:

The software is pretty heavy, even with computers designed for heavy-duty loads, resulting in long wait times to load files and make changes, reducing productivity; User Interface is not that friendly, too many features which can get confusing.

Fundamantal CAD program for designers

주석: It's a functional design tool, but users are not happy for the interface.

장점:

You can work on any design on Catia. It has several modules which you can customize for your needs, such as mechanical, electrical, manufacturing tools. You can also work with parametric for any dimentions that can be connected with a formula and variables. It is well integrated with PLMs.

단점:

User interface has not been changed for years which feels it's old. You should be trained well to use all functions. It may take some time to open/import data from different types.

My Review of CATIA

주석: My overall experience with CATIA is not much good and the program needs a lot of improvements.

장점:

I like that CATIA is simple and doesn't need much expertise in order to master it. CATIA allows importing files in different extensions and works smoothly with them. Also, I like the shortcuts of CATIA which saves me a lot of time.

단점:

I don't like the limited features that CATIA offers as i can't deal with solid structures or metal structures. Also, CATIA is not for professional use because it doesn't have any support community and lacks collaborative tools.

Awesome but a little bit costly

주석: Overall, as a user I have had a positive experience with the Catia software. It is a powerful and versatile CAD/CAM software used by many industries for product design and development. It is also highly customizable, so this will allow users to tailor the software to their specific needs. It also offers a variety of features and tools that make it easy to create complex designs. However, it is expensive software and can be difficult to learn and use, making it difficult for new users to get up to speed quickly.

장점:

The advantage is that it is a powerful 3D CAD/CAM software used for product design and development. It is easy to learn and use, making it accessible to users of all skill levels. It also allows users to customize the software according to their specific needs. In addition, it offers various features and tools that can be used to create complex designs in addition to being compatible with various other software programs, making it easy to integrate with other systems.

단점:

The downside is that this software is very expensive, so it makes it difficult for smaller businesses to afford it. It can also be difficult to learn and use, making it difficult for new users to get up to speed quickly. It can also be difficult to troubleshoot and resolve issues with software. It is also not compatible with all operating systems, making it difficult to use on certain platforms. It is also not as user friendly as some other CAD/CAM software programs.

Catia, you feel free to make design everything.

주석: I am Design Engineer at Ford Motor Company.
I am using Catia everyday.
If I making design, if I need to update my 3D model I need this software for using.
Because, our Automotive Industry using it commonly.
I can manage my product tree without any forces in catia.
I can create updateable design and share my collleagues.

장점:

If you create a new product in Aviation or Automobile Industry you should start with Catia. Because that, it is most common software in these industries and it makes you using same language while designing something together your partner. Catia has more capabilities to update your models if required. It is stronger software to use product assemblies into assembly.

단점:

First time if you learn Catia, you can be forced into doing something, than you to continue doing something. thus, you will understand strategy of Catia.

CATIA

장점:

pros: Professionals "It makes new clients pulled in to it and there are a lot of instructional exercises accessible to learn. Its ability over a wide range of portfolios makes it an extraordinary item." "The parametrization ability is one of the significant experts. Since you can undoubtedly control it to make plans by streamlining programming projects like ModeFrontier." "I have been utilizing this product for right around 2 years and I preferred it. In any case, they should improved and rework the toolbars to locate the required instrument for the circumstance." "In spite of the fact that it actually has a few cons, Catia is best particularly in Aviation and Automotive businesses due to having complex parts and congregations. It is consistently a bit of leeway to realize how to function with Catia."

단점:

Cons : "Particular franticness, they charge you for everything." "CATIA has helped my organization push ahead. We were stuck in the stone age with AutoCAD however now we produce 3D models and related drawings better/quicker/less expensive than previously." "In this way primary screen causes you to feel smidgen awkward. More than this, I think Catia has doesn't have cons to specify." "2D age module is truly poor; hence we generally utilize different apparatuses to make 2D's. Permit charge can be an issue for individual or little organization uses."

I love CATIA

주석: I love CATIA. I have worked with it for several years.

장점:

Sketching and drawings are amazing I have used CATIA for almost ten years. Its functionality is really great. You can model any 2D or 3D part using CATIA. Drawings are among the most important features of a company. Using CATIA, high-quality drawings can be modeled.

단점:

At the beginning of working with CATIA, it seems that it is really hard to work with. Information about some of the features is lacking in the CATIA website. So whenever we want to know how to model a specific 3D part, we should search a lot and talk to many people to understand.

Every engineer's choice!!!

장점:

Simple to use, reliable, easy to install

단점:

Requires additional memory processor, heating issues when using continuously

NOT EASY TO USE BUT EFFICIENT

주석: Designing power transmission system.

장점:

1. Common usage 2. Easy to find engineer / technical specialist who has experience on it 3. Price 4. Effcient 2D feature

단점:

1. Always Crash like as 'click ok to terminate' 2. Not easy to use' UI is not friendly. 3. Disconnected links 4. Lack of "3D tolerance stack up" feature

Catia is extremely powerful design software, but not the easiest to learn

주석: Catia is an extremely powerful design software and it is great to use once you are fully trained.

장점:

Catia can do basically anything you want from a graphical design standpoint. My company designs very complicated 2D and 3D models of tires and Catia can do it with ease.

단점:

Learning to use the software is very time-consuming. Because of the thousands of functions and tools at your disposal, the learning curve is steep. However once you're a pro, it's great.

Good product for 3D design

주석: We're working on automotive company.This product is benefit to prepare and see the design with 3D and check the package. It helps to decrease the prototype investment.

장점:

You can easily create 3D design and choose the suitable material from Catia library and calculate the mass, inertia, volume.

단점:

It's not easy to use. It has many different feature . You need to get training .

CAD software for a certain industry

주석: In my overall experience CATIA is great CAD software because from the way you draw to the way you make assemblies or renderings, it is a software that does not have a great learning difficulty. You may take longer in design for the above, but it's a great advantage that you can use to your advantage.

장점:

CATIA is a very complete software but with its areas of improvement. Unlike other softwares it is very complete, its functions are very extensive and offers us what are step-by-step design process and in this if we come to have a mistake we can see in which step exactly we make mistakes this I see it as a great advantage. The renders even though it takes time but quality like any good product that takes your time. The interface is very simple to use and does not take much complexity of learning.

단점:

As I mentioned in the advantages is a software that is handled step by step compared to other CAD software there are functions that takes you 1 step what CATIA does in 5 steps that I see as a great disadvantage in that you take more time with the jobs. When it comes to rendering jobs or making assemblies if it takes time and resources from your computer so if you don't have a good computer with resources this is going to cost you a little bit.

Create Cad Model Professionally

주석: I am very pleased using this program. Because we generally use complex models.

장점:

Using only mouse to rotate, pan, zoom. Creating parametric model very easily. Complex models are not trouble.

단점:

Sometimes, small models can be crashed while saving.

You get what you pay for

장점:

Great CAD software. Has a lot of functionality that can takes a long time to learn, but can do amazing things.

단점:

Very expensive software when there are others that have the same features for less.

Catia a designers tool for creating 3d and 2d models

주석: I work mostly on 2D drawing creation in my organization. Catia provides more flexibility in usage of different sorts of tools.

장점:

The software contains powerful tools for CAD modeling. The interface is very good and is divided into different workbenches based upon the designer's requirements.

단점:

The features tools won't create a 3D model unless the sketch a closed profile.

Catia

주석: I have been using this software for almost 2 years and I liked it. However, they should improved and rearrange the toolbars to find the needed tool for the situation.

장점:

This software has a lot of features that no other design program has. With this program you can create 3d models as well as analyzing them to know the resistance of the materiales and applied forces.

단점:

I liked this software, however, I do not like the way it is designed. It has a lot of features but in most of the cases, they are really difficult to find. You have to drag and drop the tool bars to find them.

Design

장점:

Better for plastics design,sheet metal design

단점:

No better for class A surface development limitations for blends

Easy to learn

주석: Excellent application developed by Dassault Systemes. It is very easy to learn. The main advantage in this software is we can switch between modules to have better design features.

장점:

We can design any type of product using this software with high rendering effects and colors. We can easily edit the designed part in this software.

단점:

The least i like in this software is that while designing any BAJA Vehicles, it will be very difficult to design them due to the weldment design between the pipe joints. It takes more time to design when compared to solidworks software.
