What does a CAD Technician do?

Posted on 08:01 by Unknown
Are you thinking about getting into computer modeling or design work? CAD technicians are typical entry level positions throughout the industry. The CAD Technician works as a member of a team that is responsible for modeling and detailing activity associated with engineering services. ESSENTIAL DUTIES: The following duties and responsibilities are illustrative of the primary functions of

How do you create high quality model renderings in CATIA V5?

Posted on 11:10 by Unknown
CATIA V5 users may be wondering how do you create a high resolution image of their CAD model? The quickest way to render an image of a model in CATIA is by going to Start>Infrastructure>Photo Studio--> quick rendering. Although this is drastically better than just taking a screen shot, it isn't really a high quality resolution image that you may want to use for a poster or marketing device. So

Steel Roller Coaster Modeled in CATIA V5

Posted on 16:16 by Unknown
As you can see from many of my previous posts, I spend quite a bit of time modeling roller coasters in CATIA. Well, it looks like I'm not the only one. Yunus Alapan, a student at Yildiz Technical University in Istanbul, Turkey, recently submitted a few pictures of a roller coaster he created with CATIA V5. I know from experience how hard and time consuming  it is to model a complete roller

New 3D XML Model Uploaded to 3D Via

Posted on 16:57 by Unknown
Today, I uploaded a new CAD model to 3D Via in 3D XML format. This is the current state of my next generation version of the cantilevered roller coaster. The main difference has been the change from a cantilevered I beam to a beefier truss configuration.

CATIA Kinematics Simulation from Manikin's POV

Posted on 18:13 by Unknown
I am modeling a new type of roller coaster in CATIA. In order to test this new coaster concept I need to run the simulation from the viewpoint of the manikin riding in the car. Whether you are modeling a roller coaster or a sports car, here is how it is done:

First, make sure this option under Tools > Options>Ergonomics is set:

For the line of sight, create a camera in View - Named View and
