<a href="/conv/imp_catia4.htm" class=fft>CATIA v4 Models</a>	| .model, .dlv, .exp, .session | v4.1.9 up to v4.2.4 (or newer)
NOTES-START
<p>This geometry import converter imports and processes BREP solids-based CAD geometry files stored in the CATIA v4 native file formats. Okino has been a trained Spatial Corp. developer since 1997, resulting in a top notch, refined and professional implementation of the Okino-CATIA importer.

<p>The <a href="http://www.3ds.com/catia">CATIA</a> stand-alone program (made by <a href="http://www.3ds.com">Dassault Syst&egrave;mes</a> and distributed by <a href="http://www.catia.ibm.com">IBM</a>) is an integrated suite of Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Engineering (CAE), and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) applications for digital product definition and simulation. It allows manufacturers to simulate all the industrial design processes, from the pre-project phase, through detailed design, analysis, simulation, assembly and maintenance. CATIA is primarily used by the automotive and aerospace industries for automobile and aircraft product and tooling design (it is well known for being used by Boeing to design their massive airplanes, or NASA to help design the Space Shuttle). There are roughly 20,000 companies worldwide using CATIA with roughly 30,000 seats sold per year.

<a href="/conv/imp_catia5.htm" class=fft>CATIA v5 Parts & Assemblies</a>	| .CATPart, .CATProduct | R2 and newer
NOTES-START
<p>This geometry import converter imports and processes BREP solids-based CAD geometry 
files stored in the CATIA v5 native .catpart part and .catproduct assembly file formats.
 The importer is based on the actual CATIA v5 runtime DLLs and components from <a href="http://www.3ds.com">Dassault Syst&egrave;me</a> 
(the developers and owners of the CATIA v5 modeling software) and hence provides the 
absolute best conversion of native CATIA v5 part and assembly files - no reverse 
engineered libraries are used, as is often the case with other CATIA v5 importers.
