Contributions Regarding Parametrized Design

Parametrized design is a desired way of working when building 3D models. A well designed product will come with time, cost advantages and avoiding errors as advantages. These kind of designs are usually used on platform products, but there are also useful on any project. Parametrized design is based on parameters organization and relations. The actual paper contains some applications of the parametrization usage in Catia software in order to show the possibility of obtaining different product designs using a generic model. The key of a well-built 3D model is to be well organized, to respect the linkage rules and to think about all fail and need possibilities. The designer must consider all the issues that the end user may face and come with solutions for any of it. The parameters of the 3D model can control a lot of things as: relations between each others, activity (of feature, Boolean operation, component), material, information messages (give instructions or details related to the model). Mathematical operations and conditions can be used to control the 3d model. There must be also considered the best place to create the parameters and relations (assembly, skeleton part, component).
