The core manufacturing solution, CATIA Composites Manufacturer Preparation, integrated in the 3Dexperience® platform, enables composites designers to embed all composites manufacturing contraints in the design process in order to design complex production-ready composites and mass-produce composites parts.
All shop floor processes can be virtually simulated and optimized upfront to reduce costly scrapping of parts, whether for Lay-up simulation, Laser Projection, NC, Tape Laying or Resin Injection.
Ready-to-use outputs helps composites manufacturers to industrialize composites parts with powerful process-oriented tools.
