Enabling Rapid Development of High-Quality Mechanical Products
Engineering is critical to Business Success
With significant global competition, it is hard for companies to bring new products to market that will stand out.
The world has gotten smaller, and with technology advancements, many small companies now have access to resources that used to be only available to the largest companies, but they need to make sure they are using the right technology to get that competitive edge. Meanwhile, large companies need to stay ahead to protect their market share. The key to bringing competitive products to market lies in engineering.
CATIA Engineering provides the platform, which enables engineers to create any type of 3D assembly, for a wide range of engineering processes.
CATIA Engineering Key Benefits

Work on Large Assemblies
3DEXPERIENCE CATIA ensures efficient assembly design and fast retrieval of large assemblies.
Manage Product Data and Adapt to Differing Needs
3DEXPERIENCE CATIA integrates PLM, so engineers never leave the design environment
Learn It Easily
Contextual menus, streamlined commands, action pad, and consistent logic enhance user efficiency
10 reasons 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA gives engineers an advantage
Engineering is key. Engineers need to focus on numerous reasons why customers buy their products. Innovation is critical to success as it is the biggest differentiator between Top Performers and others. Explore how the combination of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform powerful capabilities will empower mechanical engineers to develop more competitive, more profitable products.
3DEXPERIENCE CATIA offers all the tools mechanical engineers need to achieve any design, regardless of industry.
Realizing Productivity Gains
With 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA's superior modeling and assembly management capabilities, engineers can expect to see a 20% to 50% gain in productivity. Then, if you complement it with the unified modeling and simulation environment and powerful design for manufacturability capabilities, and tie it all together with integrated data management on a collaboration platform, you can expect an additional 30% productivity improvement, depending on your usage and industry.

How to optimize your design with MODeling & SIMulation ?
MODSIM unifies modeling and simulation on a common data model within a single user experience on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. The goal is to consider the whole product development process and break down barriers.
With products becoming more complex, the faster you can validate your product by simulation, the more time you’ll have to find the best innovative technical solution. MODSIM enables a simulation-empowered shift-left strategy that pulls verification and validation upfront in the concept phase of the design. The design engineer can investigate multiple design options and select the one closest to the requirement specification. Engineering decisions are facilitated by visualizing physical simulation variants of multiple 3D model alternatives. By using the so-called Design Of Experience process, the design engineer reduces the risk of late-stage failures and reworks.
It's easier to do things like IP control with CATIA Product Structure: being able to give someone an assembly and then they can work in context within the assembly.
