[Edit this paragraph] Applications
Aerospace:
CATIA originated from the aerospace industry and is the undisputed leader in the industry. It meets the needs of various applications in commercial, defense and aerospace fields with its accuracy, safety and reliability. In many projects in the aerospace industry, CATIA has been used to develop virtual prototypes, including the Boeing 777 and Boeing 737 of Boeing Aircraft Company (USA), the Rafale fighter jet of Dassault Aircraft Company (France), and the Bombardier aircraft. The company's (Canada) Global Express business jet, and Lockheed Martin Aircraft Company (USA)'s Darkstar unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. In the Boeing 777 project, Boeing Aircraft Company used CATIA to design 100 mechanical parts except the engine. And 100 parts including the engine were pre-assembled. The Boeing 777 is also the only large jet airliner to date that has undergone 100 digital design and assembly processes. There are more than 1,700 engineers, tool designers, technicians and project managers involved in the Boeing 777 project, distributed in different regions of the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom. They are connected through 1,400 CATIA workstations and work in parallel. Boeing's designers performed three-dimensional solid modeling of all 777 parts and pre-assembled the entire 777 in full size on the computer. Pre-assembly eliminates the need for engineers to create a physical prototype. Engineers can check and modify interference and inconsistencies in the design on the pre-assembled digital prototype. Boeing Aircraft Company announced that in the 777 project, compared with the traditional design and assembly process, the application of CATIA saved 50% of the time of repeated work and error modification. Although the time saved in the development time of the first 777 is not very significant compared with other models using traditional design processes, Boeing Aircraft Company estimates that the development of subsequent 777 models can save at least 50% of the time. CATIA's post-parametric processing function also showed its superiority and powerful functions in the design of the 777. In order to cater to the needs of special users, using CATIA's parametric design, Boeing does not have to redesign and build physical prototypes. It only needs to make parameter changes to get an electronic prototype that meets user needs, and users can preview it on the computer.
