How to change the blades on a 'dumb solid' (CATIA)

Jack K

This tutorial is to provide a guide for modifying a CATIA file containing a "dumb" solid. (The reader should be familiar with basic CATIA Part Design commands) This tutorial is to respond to a recent question asked by Nouman Khalid: "This dump solid is generated from a STL and i am given a .STP file. I want all the blades to be similar to generate a reference model for modal analysis. I want the encircled blade to be copied all over rotor. Please guide how this can be done."

Linking parts in CATIA: Publication

We can have the same sketch (or parameter, geometry, body,etc) in different parts of the same assembly, that way if we need to change this element, we only need to do it in one place. Some examples: 1) Diameter of holes, lengths. 2) We maybe want a reference model with all the sketches, and then copy those sketches to different parts. 3) We could have a solid of revolution, that we need to split due to the chosen manufacturing process. And after the split, maybe because of minor features (holes, etc) are not totally simmetric, so we have to define two parts with two drawings. We could be faster if we linked only the common solid, before applying specific features. In all of those cases we can use the powerful tool in Catia known as Publication.

[VIDEO] Introduction to Natural Shape - CATIA 3DEXP

Hello CATIA Fans, In this new video, I will introduce you the "Natural Shape" application, included in all mechanical roles! This app allows you to design quickly a conceptual 3D shape/solid with no advanced skilled required. You can also work with Dead Solid Body (step for instance) since it is based on Direct Modeling Technology. Every time you select an element on the 3D (screen), a contextual menu will appears and propose you several action. This really improve the user interface. The video is divided in 2 parts, first I will introduce you the application and show you different features, then I will import a step file from the 3DExperience Part Supply catalog, and we will see what we can do with it. If you are a CATIA V5 user this video should be interesting since it is new in 3DExperience. Please Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe :)
