Catia vs solid works which one is Better.

two of the best computer-aided design software in engineering and manufacturing are Solidworks and CATIA, they have been around for a long period of time now, and they each have different tools and features that can help you work on your projects.

    You need to look at their histories to see the real difference between the two. Catia was originally developed with large scale manufacturing...i.e. large assemblies (not necessarily large files). It was originally built on a Unix network with huge mainframes with the expectation that a lot of engineers would be working parts of large assemblies, only relatively recently transitioning to Windows (and not doing a very good job of it). Solidworks was NOT developed by Dassault, but by Solidworks independently, and bought by Dassault. It's target audience was for small teams of engineers and designers on smaller manufacturing and development efforts; i.e. smaller assemblies. Solidworks can do everything Catia can but on a smaller scale. Basically, development for Catia was spawned from the mainframe network-centric view, while Solidworks was developed from the single-user PC framework. Catia should probably be compared with ProE instead, whereas Solidworks should be compared with the likes of AutoDesk Inventor, and to a lesser extent Fusion 360, Rhino, Cobalt and other lower-end, and lower cost packages.

I've worked with SolidWorks last 6 years and even having a perfect pc it crashes... Sometimes CTD and a lose of data is secure. Now I'm using Onshape and is bulletproof, no crashes no bugs, nothing. And I don't need a Nasa computer, is for me the best CAD software for up to medium size companies.

THe price difference is going to force CATIA to drop their price. Interesting though is they're both Dasult products. THose people are not dumb by no means so there's got to be more to it.

    Well, I am sorry, but I strongly disagree with the notion of this being a great comparison. In the end the video says "one has a good toolset, but the other one does too". This was in my opinion done by a person who does not have a clue. Now... the most notable difference between Catia and Sw: 1.) is in their kernel core. Catia is CGM, SW is based on Parasolid ( licenced by Siemens, so it is no surprise NX is also a parasolid based CAD). This came to be, as Dassault required to fill in the gaps in their portfolio with an alternative for a mid-level CAD and purchased a young american company -SW. 2.) Catia is great and all with the whole ekosystem of modules and plugins, but it aims for big companies to service the whole LCM. SW is a simpler tool for small businesses. 3.) Catia can by means of it's architecture and loading strategies work with much greater assemblies, counting tens of thousands parts - a feat not many CADs can do. 4.) Parametric architectures. This is a broad topic, but I would pick one aspect of it as a representative: SW relies heavily on volumetric booleans; the problem with such stuff is that your modeling features inputs are often only virtual entities; vertices, edges, faces you choose as an operator. But in case of notable modifications these tend to get lost, as the querry of these entities per boolean body changes, and you'll get an update error. Then you, again, as an operator need to manually replace the missing entity. ( an example: you are about to union trim 2 bodies. The faces to keep are all connected by a tangency continuity operator. If you would later modify the body in question in a way, that the face you picked in the initial operation would no longer be connected to the querry of faces which are cut by the second body, the operation will crash and provide an update error). In Catia you can use these methods too, and for speedmodelling this is great, and to some extent these querries are overlooked by a comparison algoryrhm (which is better on SW). But if you are striving for stability, Catia offers a great number of options for you to pick from inside its toolboxes ( like a dozen for surface modeling alone ), so that you can relatively easily devise strategies where you will use only inputs for features that are rather points, lines, and surfaces ( as opposed to vertices, edges and faces), or put simply: discrete unambiguous operations. As such, this methodology has a 100 fold lower update error incidency. you can build much more robust models, requiring much less time to update upon change request. 5.) User - friendlines. Catia is a hostile otherwordly terror hell-bent on ruining your life when it comes to some very common stuff compared to SW. A simple example: Chain with varying number of links on a spline trajectory and their kinematics. In SW it is several clicks away, in Catia it is a nightmare ( copying and binding them one by one manualy) unless.... you have a lot of money for some very exotic licences. ....Or a lot of free time for programing your own macros. Of course there is so much more to it, but as for the most notable differences I would pick these.

    My opinion on the subject (working 8+ hours with catia daily and having some knowledge on SW): -CATIA can do everything SW can. The opposite is not true. -CATIA is WAY more expensive than SW. -SW is more user friendly (CATIA looks like a program from the 90s). -If you learn CATIA, you'll be able to find a job easily (i don't know about SW, but i know it's true about CATIA). -Most companies can make due with SW, no need to pay for CATIA. Overall I'd say, SW is better in terms of $$ and user friendliness.Go with SW unless you need to do a lot of surface design or youy really, really (for some reason) want to work iun automotive industry.

    If you need to get 3D models out fast (and don't need fancy surfacing), Solidworks will allow you to do horrible, horrible things for the sake of speed. Stuff like building parts using external references to other parts in an assembly, starting new parts in-assembly by sticking it on an existing part, and manually selecting which closed contour(s) to use inside a sketch with multiple overlapping closed contours. Sure, if anything changes, the whole thing might break apart into spaghetti. But it is faster.

Catia offers me everything necessary or unnecessary, like a salesman who doesn't know what I need. It does not provide convenience to me. I can't even attach a line to a part's edge directly, Catia wants me to define that edge every time. The only thing I like about Catia is that it does not slow down the computers. As for the Solidworks, SW knows everything what I need. Faster drawing, faster modelling, much faster assembling.
