Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Sketch Based Features You will see what is new and has been enhanced in CATIA V5R8 for Pad and Pocket in the Part Design Workbench Multi-length Pad Multi-length Pocket
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Multi-length Pad (1/3) You can extrude multiple profiles belonging to a same sketch using different length values. The multi-pad capability lets you do this at one time. V5R8 Select the Multi-length pad icon The Pad Definition dialog box is displayed. You can see the number of domains to be extruded. 1 2 Select the Sketch. Note that all profiles must be closed and must not intersect. 3
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Multi-length Pad (2/3) You can extrude multiple profiles belonging to a same sketch using different length values. The multi-pad capability lets you do this at one time. V5R8 A red arrow is displayed normal to the sketch. It indicates the proposed extrusion direction. To reverse it, you just need to click it. 4 5 Select a Domain in the list. This one now appears in blue in the geometry area.
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Multi-length Pad (3/3) You can extrude multiple profiles belonging to a same sketch using different length values. The multi- pad capability lets you do this at one time. V5R8 Specify the length by entering a value. For example, enter 20mm. Repeat the operation for each extrusion domain. 6 7 Click OK to create the Multi-height Pad. Note that you can multiselect extrusion domain from the list before defining a common length or thickness.
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Multi-length Pocket (1/3) You can extrude multiple profiles belonging to a same sketch using different length values. The multi-pocket capability lets you do this at one time. V5R8 Select the Multi-length pad icon The Pocket Definition dialog box is displayed. You can see the number of domains to be extruded. 1 2 Select the Sketch. Note that all profiles must be closed and must not intersect. 3 Note that a red arrow is displayed normal to the sketch. It indicates the proposed extrusion direction. To reverse it, you just need to click it.
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Multi-length Pocket (2/3) You can extrude multiple profiles belonging to a same sketch using different length values. The multi-pocket capability lets you do this at one time. V5R8 4 5 Select a Domain in the list. This one now appears in blue in the geometry area. Specify the length by entering a value. For example, enter 10mm. Repeat the operation for each extrusion domain. Note that you can multiselect extrusion domain from the list before defining a common length or thickness.

Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Dress up Features You will see what is new and has been enhanced in CATIA V5R8 for Draft in the Part Design Workbench Extracting geometry Shell Update
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Extracting Geometry (1/2) The Extract capability lets you generate separate elements from initial geometry, without deleting geometry. This operation may be especially useful to solve difficulties when drafting for example. Use the Draft command to draft the pad with 10 as angle value for example. 1 2 Once done, the application informs you that the operation cannot be properly achieved. Click OK to close the error message 3
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Extracting Geometry (2/2) A new dialog box displays providing you with a solution. You can deactivate the draft and extract its geometry. To do so, click Yes. The Extract capability lets you generate separate elements from initial geometry, without deleting geometry. This operation may be especially useful to solve difficulties when drafting for example. 45 Draft.1 appears as deactivated in the specification tree. A node "Extracted Geometry" is displayed in the tree too. This category includes the elements created by the application, namely five surfaces. You can now use Generative Shape Design capabilities to complete the draft. V5R8
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Shell Update (1/2) After a sketch modification, a text is displayed about the previous face. Enter the Sketcher to replace the circular edge of the initial sketch with a line, then return to Part Design. 1 2 Then, close the Update Diagnosis dialog box.
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Shell Update (2/2) After a sketch modification, a text is displayed about the previous face. Double-click on Shell.1 in the Specification Tree. The Feature Definition Error window displays, prompting you to change specifications. Moreover, the old face you have just deleted is now displayed in yellow. Click OK to close the window. The Shell Definition dialog box appears. 3 V5R8 Note that the text "Removed Face" is displayed close to the face, thus giving you a better indication of the face that has been removed. 4 Click the Faces to remove field if not already done and select the replacing face. Click OK to close the Shell Definition dialog box and obtain a correct part. The shell feature is rebuilt.
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Part Management You will see what is new and has been enhanced in CATIA V5R8 for Managing Bodies in the Part Design Workbench Change Boolean Type
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Change Boolean Type (1/4) The initial part is composed of three bodies. Assemble Body.1 to Part Body. 1 Remove Body.2 from Assemble.1. You obtain Remove.1. 2 V5R8
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Change Boolean Type (2/4) Click with the right button mouse on Remove.1. In the contextual menu, select Remove.1 object 3 V5R8 Choose now the new operation. For example, click on Change To Assemble. 4
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Change Boolean Type (3/4) You obtain : 5 V5R8 Change now Assemble.2 to Union Trim. You obtain : 6
Copyright DASSAULT SYSTEMES Change Boolean Type (4/4) You can edit Trim.1. For instance, select the cylinder's top face as the face to keep. You obtain : 7 V5R8
