Product optimization in CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE
How to design lighter, more efficient, and optimized parts
Reducing weight, cost, and material in a product has always been a complex challenge.
Today, it can be addressed in an integrated way.
This isn’t about designing. It’s about finding the best possible solution.
Design, simulation, and optimization in a single environment
Full integration of all development phases.
Structural and fluid optimization
Improvement of product performance under different conditions.
Reconstruction adapted to manufacturing
Geometries ready for real production processes.
Exploration of multiple alternatives
Generation and evaluation of different design solutions.
BEYOND CAD: WHERE IS THE PROBLEM
In many development processes:
- Optimizing a design requires multiple tools
- Complex and not very accessible processes
- Dependence on prior experience
- Difficulty evaluating multiple alternatives
The problem is not optimization. It’s doing it efficiently.
What changes with Functional Generative Design
This approach allows:
- Integrating design, simulation, and optimization in the same environment
- Quickly exploring different design alternatives
- Reducing weight and material from early stages
- Validating solutions with advanced simulation tools
Optimization becomes part of the process from the start.
What impact does it have on your company?
- Reduction in product weight and cost
- Improved performance and efficiency
- Less dependence on manual iterations
- Greater design innovation capability

“It has never been so accessible to integrate optimization, simulation, and design in the same process.”
