What are the two types of assembly design approaches?

- Bottom-up: the components are assembled together to maintain their design intent. - Top-down: components are created inside the assembly in the Assembly Design Workbench.

What are the 2 different types of drafting techniques?

- Generative drafting: used to automatically generate drawing views of the parts and assemblies. The parametric dimensions added to the component in the Part Design workbench during its creation are generated and displayed automatically in the drawing views. - Interactive drafting: you create the drawing views by sketching them using the normal sketching tools and then adding dimensions.

What are the 7 basic workbenches?

-Part Design -Wireframe and Surface Design -Assembly Design -Drafting -Generative Sheetmetal Design -DMU Kinematics -FreeStyle

Which workbench has dress-up features?

Part Design workbench has dress-up features which are other tools used to apply the placed features such as fillets and chamfers. (you can also assign materials to the model in this workbench)

How is part design different from the wireframe & surface design workbench?

The WSD workbench has tools similar to the part design except the tools in this environment are used to create basic & advanced surfaces.

What should you do in order to create a solid model in the part design workbench?

You must create a sketch which is drawn in the Sketcher workbench that can be brought up within the Part Design workbench (while drawing the sketch, some constraints are automatically applied but you can add more + dimensions)

What is the part design workbench?

a parametric and feature-based environment in which you can create solid models.

What is a workbench?

a specified environment consisting of tools that allows the user to perform specific design tasks.

What is the wireframe & surface design workbench?

also a parametric and feature-based environment but is used to create wireframe or surface models.

What does CATIA stand for?

computer aided three-dimensional interactive application

Who is the platform P2 intended for?

for advanced design engineering companies that require product, process, and resource modeling.

Who is the platform P3 intended for?

for high-end design applications, basically for automotive and aerospace industry where high quality surfacing is used.

Who is the platform P1 intended for?

for small and medium-sized process-oriented companies that wish to grow toward the large-scale digitized product definition.

What is the generative sheetmetal design workbench?

it is used for designing the sheet metal components.

What is the DMU Kinematics workbench?

it is used to design mechanisms by adding joints between the components. This also allows you to simulate and analyze the working of the mechanisms dynamically.

What is the FreeStyle workbench?

it is used to manipulate/refine existing surface. You can also create independent surfaces and analyze the surfaces using the tools available in the workbench.

What does the space analysis toolbar do?

provides the Clash analysis tool that helps in detecting clash, clearance, and contact between the components and subassemblies.

What is the Assembly Design workbench?

this is used to assemble the components using the assembly constraints.

What is the Drafting workbench?

used for the documentation of parts or assemblies created in the form of drawing views and their detailing.
