ENOVIA V5-6R2023: DMU Kinematics focuses on creating and simulating V5 mechanisms using CATIA products. The course begins with an overview of the mechanism design process, then covers each step in detail through lectures and hands-on practices. The course also explores how to convert assembly constraints into kinematic joints. Additionally, it introduces converting V4 mechanisms to V5, as well as using the 3D model method for building kinematic assemblies.
Topics Covered
- Kinematic analysis process
- Constraint-based joints
- Curve/surface-based joints
- Ratio-based joints
- Compiling and replaying a simulation
- Swept volumes
- Traces
- Sensors
- Clash detection
- Assembly constraint conversion
- CATIA V4 mechanisms
- Simulation with laws
Prerequisites
- Access to the V5-6R2023 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Dassault Systèmes may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions (for example, V5-6R2022).
- Completion of at least one of the following courses (or equivalent experience) is highly recommended:
- ENOVIA V5-6R2023: DMU Navigator and Space Analysis
- CATIA V5-6R2023: Introduction to Modeling
- CATIA V5-6R2023: Introduction for Non-Designers
