Scenario ObjectivesScenario Objectives
ObjectivesThis scenario illustrates the capabilities of the Part Design workbench available
in CATIA V5R5:
.Design precise 3D mechanical parts with an intuitive and flexible user interface
.Accommodate design requirements for parts of various complexities- fromsimple to advanced
.Apply the combined power of feature-based design with the flexibility of aBoolean approach
