Catia V5-6r2015 Ascent - Center for Technical Knowledge

The CATIA V5-6R2015: Sheet Metal Design student guide enables students to create features that are specific to the sheet metal modeling process. Students are provided with a process-based approach to creating sheet metal models. Each step in the process is discussed in depth using lectures and several hands-on practices. This student guide focuses on the Generative Sheet Metal Design workbench.
