Product Overview
SAMTECH extends now its suite of analysis solutions embedded in CATIAV5 and provides CATIAV5 users with TEA Pipe, a new professional product. TEA Pipe is a vertical application dedicated to Piping and Tubing Simulation useful and in particular to the placement of pipes in engines and cars.
TEA Pipe provides you with a comprehensive and very powerful software for brake pipes analysis.It allows the use of It allows the use of a Pipe Manufacturer Databases. Material laws The material behavior can also be defined in a imported from Databases. The brake pipe connectors, supports... can be defined on points and geometries from your current CATIA V5 models. Distance measurement between the deformed shape and the surrounding surfaces allows the user to detect possible collisions. A new pipe shape can be created from the analysis result. With a Using simple kinematical representation,definition the wheel rotation and translation can be taken into account. With the Advanced kinematical definition concepts allow to import complex movements can be imported from DMU Kinematics. With TEA Pipe, the best length, the best optimal pipes lengths and connectors positions...can be determined found, while checking collisions or curvatures.
Customer Benefits
speeds up the design work thanks to the use of a single user interface to determine the optimal pipe length and connectors positions while checking collisions or curvatures
Provides users with extended solving capabilities for pipe position optimization, in a fully associative environment.
Answers to customer needs from medium and large automotive industries by providing access to SAMCEF embedded in CATIA V5 to eliminate expensive iterations.
