Fabricated Product Creation (FPE)
CATIA PLM Express
Complete and efficient solution ranging from sheet metal parts to progressive dies design
Overview
The CATIA - Fabricated Product Creation option is dedicated to the rapid design of sheet metal parts
and progressive dies. Designers benefit from already capitalized know-how and can take into account
manufacturing constraints early in the design. In this way, they can create sheet metal parts and associated tooling that are fuly compliant with company rules and standards for efficient manufacturing.
- Fast and efficient design of sheet metal complex parts
- Easily apply company-defined standards to ensure design quality
- Create right first time sheet metal parts thanks to design in context of the virtual product
- Take into account manufacturability constraints early in the design phase and speed up
assembly design
Capabilities
- Complete sheet metal oriented features most commonly used
- Creation and reuse of the company’s standard sheet metal components (bend tables, stamps,
tooling templates) - Complete progressive dies design (step by step unfolding and tooling definition)
- Work concurrently on the folded and the unfolded state of the part
- Unique multi-body capabilities, alowing a better understanding of the design and simplifying
exchanges - Recognize and modify external sheet metal parts (STEP & IGES)
- Weld design and assembly features creation
- Sheet metal dedicated drawing generation capabilities for manufacturing as wel as seamless
