CenitDesktop launches CATIA composites software

CenitDesktop, a UK CATIA PLM business partner has announced the availability of Dassault Systems CATIA Composite Design and Manufacture products in the UK.

Developed from Airbus and Boeing work processes, CATIA V5 Composites Design is an advanced process centric solution that reportedly allows companies from the aerospace industry to reduce design and manufacturing time for complex composite parts.

CATIA V5 Composite Design Solution, developed in partnership with composite industry leaders, is already in use at major aircraft and helicopter manufacturers.

“Using CATIA V5 Composites Solution significantly improved our engineering processes and almost doubled the productivity of our design staff,” said Antti Aho-Mantila, R&D Engineer at Patria Aerostructures in Spain.

The new system delivers software tools covering preliminary and detailed design phases while taking into account, even at the concept stage, product manufacturing requirements. Owing to powerful synchronisation mechanisms CATIA V5 Composite applications make it possible for engineering and manufacturing to efficiently collaborate throughout the product development process.

Geoff Haines Managing Director of CenitDesktop Ltd commented, “This product complements our traditional areas of expertise; design, analysis and manufacturing and enables us to offer exciting capabilities to composites users”.
