- 13. Migration of Model: V5 to V6 This function creates a CATIA Publication for each feature in the model. These publications aid in maintaining the links when working with sub-assemblies, WTX files, and when converting a model from V5 to V6. Process to Migrate a 3DCS V5 Model to 3DCS V6 without losing feature links 1. Open model in V5 2. Run CATDUA - Optional 3. 3DCS Update Model 4. Open 3DCS Add/Update Publications 5.Select the top level assembly 6. Review the Publications created 7. Export a WTX file of the model 8. Use Remove "DCS Data" 9. Use Save Management to save a copy of the entire model with no DCS data. 10. Close V5 11. Open CATIA V6 12. Import the V5 CATProduct 13. Open the top level assembly Product in V6 14. Put all the parts in Design mode (manually or Find *PL* w/ deep search) 15. Create a new Manufacturing Simulation 16. Open the 3DCS V6 workbench 17. Update Model 18. Import the .wtx file exported from 3DCS V5. Notice all the feature links are maintained because 3DCS is now leveraging the publications for linking. GD&T Annotation links are lost but Update GD&T will automatically fix them. Dimensional Control Systems All Rights Reserved 2014

Editor's Notes
- #9: So some of the issues often encountered have to do with poor requirements definition and high cost due to improper allocation of tolerances or no validation of specifications until after manufacturing is well underway, or during the run-away launch It has been proven again and again that nearly 70% of a products cost commitment occurs during the first 5-10% of the development cycle. At this stage the downstream impact areas are all effected by the specifications set during initial design. The case for a well defined dimensional engineering process has never been greater. NEW SLIDE Product & Process requirements loosely defined and not traced High Manufacturing Costs due to tight tolerances on non-critical features Part Verification ONLY After Production Uncontrolled Program Launch Cycles
- #23: Thinking back to the product lifecycle, the first aspect considers customer perceived quality. 3DCS Spec Study enables design studios to visualize the effects dimensional variation has on a product using high-end visualization tools within CATIA or externally in products like Showcase and RTT. At this stage, this type of analysis can be done even before the internal design structure has been defined.
