catia machining capabilities
(OP)
I am interested in using catia for machining, but am worried that it doesn't have the functionality of things like mastercam and surfcam. what are your thoughts of using catia and which workbenches should I use?

last 5 years full time both for metallic parts and composite parts. I find it actually has more funtionality than Mastercam and Surfacam based on opinions from friends who use those systems in their jobs. I also drove UG for many years prior and find Catia to be comparable for flexibility and power.
I think you would be pleasantly surprised with Catia in comparison.

If you already have it, use it. But unless you have some VERY good reason, I think it's a complete waste of money.
You never really defined what you meant by this:
What functionality are you looking for? Do you actually know what it is that are available in MC and SC that you wish to compare with Catia?
