: Create complex deformations like louvers, bridges, and dimples.
The workbench operates on a feature-based approach, ensuring that every design element remains parametric and editable. CATIA Generative Sheetmetal Design
: Tools like Corner Relief ensure that material doesn't tear during the actual bending process. When to Use This Workbench : Create complex deformations like louvers, bridges, and
: Automatically generate the flattened geometry required for CNC laser or waterjet cutting. When to Use This Workbench : Automatically generate
: Most parts start with a Wall , which can be created from a 2D sketch or from existing solid geometry. Feature Integration :
CATIA Generative Sheetmetal Design (GSD) is a powerful workbench within the CATIA ecosystem specifically engineered for the efficient design of industrial sheet metal parts. It allows designers to bridge the gap between complex 3D modeling and the practicalities of manufacturing. Core Workflow and Capabilities
