CATIA Composer
Add a New Dimension to your Product Communications
CATIA Composer Overview
CATIA Composer (formerly 3DVIA Composer / SOLIDWORKS Composer) allows non-technical users to create associative 2D and 3D technical illustrations, product documentation, animated assembly instructions and interactive product experiences - directly from 3D digital product data. Built on a lightweight, open, XML-based architecture, Composer keeps every deliverable synchronised with the source CAD: any change in geometry, metadata or BOM flows through automatically, so documentation is always accurate and always current.
CATIA Composer Solutions
Key Capabilities:
- Author 2D and 3D technical illustrations directly from CAD geometry, without altering the source model.
- Create exploded views, sectioning and step-by-step animated assembly and disassembly sequences.
- Build interactive 3D content for product documentation, service procedures, training and marketing.
- Generate Bill of Materials tables that stay linked to the model structure.
- High-quality raster and vector output for print, web and embedded experiences.
- Style libraries and templates for consistent, brand-compliant deliverables.
- Scripting and automation API for batch generation and pipeline integration.
