The CAD software CATIA® impresses with its wide range of features and numerous plugins for practically any application. Originally developed for aircraft construction, the program is now used in diverse industries – from the aerospace industry to the automotive and mechanical engineering sectors.
For freeform surfaces, like those that creative designers often require, CATIA® is among the solutions providing the greatest possible freedom. The software allows users to design three-dimensional models and automatically derive their 2D equivalents, develop mechanical products and simulate complex movements – it’s all possible with this comprehensive CAD software. Thanks to numerous expansions, you can even use the program for kinematics and FEM calculations – you are only limited by your imagination.
From engineering and modeling to the development of complex systems, those in need of a versatile CAD application will love CATIA®.
Powerful graphics cards and processors are the key to minimizing load times down and achieving high resolutions in CATIA®. Similar to most CAD applications, the following holds true: The more RAM, the more performance is possible. This is particularly true for comprehensive solutions like CATIA®. For fluid representations of complex structures, you simply need high-performance components.
The manufacturer Dassault Systèmes recommends the NVIDIA Quadro series of graphics cards. The M4000, M5000, M6000 and K2200 were certified for use with CATIA® thanks to the cooperation between the two companies. These are the cards we use in our products. From the CATIA® entry workstation with 4 GB of video RAM and 640 CUDA cores {link to wiki} to the high-end system with 12 GB and 3072 CUDA cores, the right hardware for every need is available – for everyone from hobby designers to hardcore professionals.
