Catia Generative Sheetmetal Design ●

: Easily add cylindrical bends or various flange types (swept, hem, or tear-drop).

CATIA Generative Sheetmetal Design (GSD) is a powerful workbench within the CATIA ecosystem specifically engineered for the efficient design of industrial sheet metal parts. It allows designers to bridge the gap between complex 3D modeling and the practicalities of manufacturing. Core Workflow and Capabilities CATIA Generative Sheetmetal Design

While CATIA Part Design is great for solid blocks, GSD is essential for parts formed by cold plastic deformation, such as brackets, enclosures, and aerospace skins. It is typically favored by those who need to produce detailed annotated drawings for the shop floor. : Easily add cylindrical bends or various flange

: Tools like Corner Relief ensure that material doesn't tear during the actual bending process. When to Use This Workbench Core Workflow and Capabilities While CATIA Part Design

: You can toggle between folded and unfolded views to verify clearances or add features that must be cut before bending.
