CATIA V5 is the newest release of the long-standing 3D CAD software from Dassault Systemes. It is the first full release to be available on the PC platform (NT). There are many changes over the previous UNIX-based V4. This quick demonstration will outline one basic approach to 3D design.

1. Solid model creation of 3D objects has become much easier. To begin with, we should use the 'Mechanical Design' Workbench. We want to create an arc segment and a horizonal centerline for revoltion surface later. As with CATIA V2 - V4, wireframe geometry creation begins with the selection of a plane. We will select the ZX plane for ourselves. Select the plane directly from the display or from the Product tree. In both cases, the selected element should be highlighted to indicate it has been selected.

2. The sketcher can be started on the selected plane with the 'Sketcher' Workbench. The display will change to a 2D grid, and the sketcher icons should apear on the toolbar. We want our arc segment close to the axis, but stll fairly flat - 205mm Radius with centerpoint 200mm away from H axis.. 3. We first draw our horizonal centerline for our later surface of revolution. We draw a horizonatal line well under the (H)orizontal axis. We may specify its distance from the H axis by using the CONSTRAINT function and then selecting our line and (H)orizonal axis. A green constraint dimension representing the distance should appear. Use the left mouse button to fix it in position. 4. Double-click the new distance constraint. A dialogue box should appear. Enter the Radius dimension "200"(millimeters). Now we want to create our arc segment.
