CATIA V5 R20 - 304 Advanced Surfacing Text Course

Course Overview

The Advanced Surfacing course continues where 204 - Intermediate Surfacing left off, teaching you how to create and analyze complex surfaces using the CATIA V5 Generative Shape Design workbench. (For some licenses, many of these commands will be found in the Wireframe and Surfacing Design workbench instead.) Users will learn valuable tools to analyze surface models to verify their quality.

Intended Audience

Designers, Design Engineers, and Manufacturing Engineers who need to understand how to effectively analyze and use surfacing modeling for complex shapes and features.

Course Prerequisites

204 - Intermediate Surfacing or equivalent knowledge.
