TR-5: Tweaking 3DLive on ENOVIA SmarTeam
Michael Craffey Razorleaf Corporation
3DLive was the first V6 application and is an exciting new interface for PLM data – but where does it fit? This session will explore the basics of how to tweak and tailor the application to show non-standard data via the interface. Suggested applications will be covered to give users an idea of where 3DLive might hold value in their organizations.
TR-6: Wind Turbine 103: Introduction to KBE (Knowledge Base Engineering)
Jeffrey Roark, Johnson Controls Joe Konecny, RAND
This is the third in a series of related, but stand alone sessions using the design of a Wind Turbine. You will use CATIA's Knowledgeware capability, to create an application that can generate Wind Turbines based on a Customer’s specification. The application will execute a design process utilizing standard parts, templates, rules and catalogs to create a new Wind Turbine design that meets the customer requirements.
TR-7: Introduction to CATIA V6
Tom Swindell, IBM Corporation Diane Twa, IBM Corporation Curtis Niemeyer, IBM Corporation
CATIA V6 introduces a powerful new interface to explore/create data and collaborate with others. This session’s topics will include exploring the V6 interface, searching the database, creating assemblies and parts, importing/exporting and general comparisons to V5. It will be beneficial to users who are interested in learning the basics of V6.
TR-8: Wind Turbine 104: Introduction to CATIA Kinematics
Curtis Niemeyer IBM Corporation
This session is one of many in a series of related but stand alone sessions using the design of a Wind Turbine. This session will provide participants with an introduction to CATIA Kinematics. Topics presented will include; an overview of kinematics, the process of defining a mechanism, creation of joints, and basic simulation of a mechanism.  Participants will have the opportunity to apply the topics presented during a hands-on exercise.
TR-9: Introduction to CATIA Non-Linear Analysis
Greg Albrechtsen Dassault Systèmes, SIMULIA
This user training will give an overview of the nonlinear analysis capabilities available within the CATIA Analysis environment.
TR-10: Wind Turbine 105: CATIA V5 FEA Analysis Training
Joe Costa Costa Consulting LLC
This is the fifth in a series of related, but stand alone sessions using the design of a Wind Turbine. We will use the tools contained in CATIA V5 to analyze the wind turbine. The following topics will be covered: meshing, vibration analysis, linear stress analysis and optimization.
TR-11: An Introduction to CATIA V5 Piping and Tubing Design
Brett Ade TechniGraphics
This session will introduce the audience to piping and tubing design in CATIA V5. It will discuss the benefits of using the equipment and systems workbench, as well as the common challenges involved insetting up the piping and tubing environments. Finally, it will provide the audience with a hands on look at designing in the equipment and systems workbench.
TR-12: Wind Turbine 106: Manufacturing Processes 1
David Borck Ferris State University
In this presentation, focus will be placed on CNC programming and tool-path operations. An overview of CNC programming process directed toward the utilization of the latest tool-path techniques that can be incorporated into CNC machining operations. Emphasis will be placed on: CNC programming applications, CNC programming techniques, methods used to generate reliable tool-paths, developing CNC program catalogs, and enhancing tool-path operations using formula driven programs.
TR-13: Wind Turbine 107: Manufacturing Processes 2
John Latva Greenville Tool & Die
In this presentation, focus will be placed on advanced CNC programming applications; an overview of advanced CNC programming techniques that can be incorporated into existing tool-path applications. Emphasis will be placed on: Using Knowledgeware in NC programming applications, Tool catalog Organization,  incorporating CNC programs into single and multiple processes, creating and utilizing program tool queries, customizing program default applications, and creating CNC programs that are self reliant in tool selection applications.
TR-14: Start Using Macros for Simple and Special Automation
Colleen Kennedy FLSmidth-Krebs
This is an introduction to the many aspects of CATIA V5 macros. This is not a session on VB scripting, but is geared towards those who want to automate many common functions of everyday work.
TR-17: Setting Up Catalogs in ENOVIA SmarTeam
Brian Olsen Razorleaf Corporation
CATIA catalogs are powerful, and so are Standard Parts in ENOVIA SmarTeam. But configuring the two to work together is not trivial. This session will cover the configuration and preparation steps needed to make Catalogs and Standard Parts work together. Students will be able to try their own scenarios after configuring a sample system.
TR-18: 3DVIA Composer
Tod Cruikshank Dassault Systèmes
This session will provide an introduction to 3DVIA Composer, the desktop content authoring system that revolutionizes the way enterprises of all sizes create, update, and distribute rich product documentation. Participants will experience how non-engineering staff can easily reuse existing 3D product definition data to create a powerful series of “always current” interactive product documentation, animations, and technical illustrations. Previously, any change in a product required an expensive redo of the documentation. With 3DVIA Composer, users in service, manufacturing, training, sales, and marketing can quickly and easily automate their deliverable production processes while reducing costs and improving quality.
TR-19: SmarTeam Attribute Mapping for Word and Excel
Brian Olsen Razorleaf Corporation
Document automations are powerful ways to save time and improve consistency in your everyday work. Attend this hands-on session to learn to use the functionality included with SmarTeam to map Profile Card information into Word and Excel files just like you do with CATIA title blocks. Follow along as mappings are created and configured from scratch. You will also learn the effects of choosing the mapping direction and hear some lessons-learned from the field. The information in this session is the foundation needed to take control of Word and Excel attribute mapping in your SmarTeam environment.
