Creating clean gaps on complex surfaces can be tricky, especially when a design needs to stay easy to refine.

That’s where the Gap Modeling Modifier in CATIA Creative Design Experience comes in. It gives designers a more controlled way to add recessed details and panel-like separations directly to sculpted surfaces.

For teams working in automotive, transportation, or industrial design, this kind of control can make a real difference. Details that once took extra manual effort can become part of a more natural creative workflow, helping concepts feel more precise without slowing down exploration.

It’s another example of how CATIA supports the transition from early form development to more refined, production-minded design.

✨ Innovation moves faster when experts come together.

Nik and Gerry recently attended the SIMULIA Americas Users Conference in Novi, Michigan, joining simulation leaders, engineers, and technology specialists to exchange ideas, explore new applications, and discuss the future of realistic simulation on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

Events like this are more than conferences; They are opportunities to deepen our technical expertise, strengthen our collaboration, and bring fresh insight back to the engineering teams we support every day. A big thank you to the Dassault Systèmes and MODSIM teams for another energizing event. 🤝

Design and simulation should not move in separate lanes.
Join us on May 28 at 2 PM for a practical look at how MODSIM connects design and analysis on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Sign-up here 👉 https://hubs.li/Q04hxq-p0

When engineering tools are disconnected, teams spend more time managing data, tracking changes, and reacting to issues later in development. MODSIM changes that by bringing modeling and simulation into one connected approach.

Using electric drivetrain engineering and body-in-white concept engineering as real-world examples, the session will show how teams can evaluate performance earlier, manage design changes more efficiently, and accelerate product development with greater confidence.

So, we did a thing. 😎🎙️
“The Innovation Loop”, a new podcast from Mecanica, is officially live! Listen to the first episode on Spotify: https://hubs.li/Q04hjS_-0

Somewhere between the everyday conversations we have with customers, the “wait, that’s actually really interesting” moments we have as a team, and the many, many side conversations about where engineering is headed next, the idea started to take shape.

And now, our first podcast episode is out.

For episode one, Heather and Erica sit down to talk about AI in engineering and product development: what feels exciting, what feels overwhelming, and what it could actually mean for the people designing and building the products around us.

It’s our first step into a new world, and we’re very excited to finally share it. Let us know what you think!

Industrial AI is entering a new phase.

It is no longer only about surfacing insights. It is about helping engineering teams turn complex industrial knowledge into informed action.

In a recent conversation with NVIDIA, Nicolas Cerisier, VP of 3DEXPERIENCE Platform R&D at Dassault Systèmes, shared how AI-powered virtual companions are evolving through science-based Industry World Models. These companions are being designed to understand engineering rules, regulations, processes, virtual representations, real-world behavior, and the physics behind product performance.

For manufacturers, this shift matters.

When AI is grounded in industrial context, it can support better decisions across design, simulation, manufacturing, and collaboration. It can help teams protect their expertise, accelerate innovation, and free up time to focus on higher-value problem solving.

Three days of complex modeling, reduced to four hours. ⚡

That is the kind of shift that changes how design teams think about exploration.

In this CATIA Visual Scripting demo, Felix Rockel shows how advanced operators and procedural modeling can remove hours of repetitive manual work from the design process. Instead of rebuilding complex geometry step by step, designers can create adaptive logic that responds, updates, and opens the door to faster iteration.

The motorcycle concept catches your eye, but the real value is in what happens behind the model: more time to test ideas, refine surfaces, compare variants, and push the design further.

For teams working on complex products, this is where time savings become innovation fuel.

Great work by Felix on this demonstration. 👏

Good surfacing work is easy to appreciate, but not always easy to build.

Smooth transitions, clean reflections, and controlled surface flow all take more than a quick edge treatment. They take the right geometry, the right continuity, and enough flexibility to keep iterating without starting over every time the design changes.

Advanced G2 edge and shape fillets in CATIA Visual Scripting bring that level of control into a visual, parametric workflow, helping designers create curvature-continuous transitions with more consistency and repeatability: more room to explore automotive styling, product design or complex industrial surfaces without losing sight of the final surface quality.

Clean blends. Smarter design logic. Better momentum from concept to refined geometry.

Precision manufacturing is not waiting for the future.

It is already moving.

AI is becoming part of the machine.
Virtual twins are connecting design, machining, and inspection.
Additive and CNC are no longer separate conversations.
Sustainability is becoming a measurable performance factor.
Automation is reshaping the economics of the shop floor.

The manufacturers who adapt fastest will not be the ones chasing every new technology.

They will be the ones connecting the right technologies into one smarter, more responsive production environment.

That is where the next competitive edge is taking shape.
