joining elements in catia - cenit

Joining elements in CATIADesigning complex joining elements for sophisticated products is often a challenge, irrespective of the industry sector. With CENIT’s FASTJOINT software, all relevant data relating to fastener elements can be displayed in a 3D model, providing simple but effi cient support during the design phase. The ability to manage data associatively, directly within the product’s assembly group model, enhances the quality of the assembly documentation. It also simplifi es change management.
