What you'll learn

CATIA Kinematics is a practical course focused on creating, simulating and analyzing mechanical mechanisms using CATIA's DMU Kinematics environment. The course teaches learners how to convert assembled mechanical components into functional mechanisms by defining joints, degrees of freedom and motion commands.

Students will learn to create and simulate different types of mechanical joints including revolute, prismatic, cylindrical, spherical, universal, screw and gear relationships. The course also covers practical mechanisms such as four-bar linkages, crank-slider systems, gear drives, rack-and-pinion systems, cam mechanisms and robotic movements.

Through hands-on projects, learners develop practical skills in mechanism creation, motion simulation, interference checking and technical documentation.
