CATIA | How to Create an Extrusion Not Normal to the Sketch Plane

1 0 Beginner
Learning “How to Create an Extrusion Not Normal to the Sketch Plane” in CATIA is essential for engineers, designers, and CAD professionals who want to create complex and realistic 3D models. In many real-world designs, parts are not always aligned perpendicularly to a sketch plane — for example, angled brackets, turbine blades, or aerodynamic surfaces. Understanding how to extrude features along a non-normal direction allows you to accurately represent these advanced geometries. This skill enhances your ability to model with precision and flexibility, giving you more control over the orientation and direction of your features. It helps you go beyond basic extrusions, enabling you to handle sophisticated assemblies and meet specific design requirements. Moreover, it improves your efficiency in mechanical design, product development, and simulation workflows, since you can generate accurate shapes without relying on multiple sketch planes or workarounds. By mastering this CATIA technique, you develop a deeper understanding of the software’s geometry control tools and gain a competitive edge in design engineering. Whether you work in automotive, aerospace, or industrial design, knowing how to extrude features not normal to the sketch plane is a powerful skill that reflects true professional-level modeling expertise.

Learning how to write text on a piece in CATIA is an important skill for anyone involved in product design, mechanical engineering, or 3D modeling. Text engraving or embossing is often overlooked by beginners, yet it plays a crucial role in making models more professional, identifiable, and ready for manufacturing. By mastering this feature, you can add functional and aesthetic details that enhance both the clarity and quality of your designs.

CATIA Reverse Engineering - from STL to Solid Body

The Savvy Engineer
in Modeling
1 0 Beginner
Learning how to convert an STL model to a solid body in CATIA for reverse engineering is an important skill for engineers, designers, and 3D modelers who work with scanned or mesh-based data. In many industries, physical parts are often scanned using 3D scanners, producing STL files made up of triangular meshes. While these files accurately represent the shape of an object, they are not ideal for editing or manufacturing. Converting an STL model into a solid body in CATIA allows you to transform this raw mesh into a fully functional CAD model that can be modified, analyzed, and used for production.

CATIA | How to Extrude a Part Face up to a Surface

The Savvy Engineer
in Modeling
1 0 Beginner
Learning how to extrude a part face up to a surface in CATIA is an essential skill for anyone involved in 3D modeling, product design, or mechanical engineering. This feature allows designers to create highly accurate and complex geometries that match specific design requirements. Instead of extruding to a fixed distance, you can extrude precisely until your geometry meets another surface. This ensures that your part adapts to existing shapes or reference models, maintaining design intent and precision.
