Hi All,

Does anyone know the differences between SMD and SM1? specially their training material deference?

Thanks

CATIA — Sheetmetal Design 2 (SMD, 5691-SMD): In addition to the functions supplied by SM1, including its Release 3 enhancements, SMD delivers
  • The ability to design more features:
  • -Stamped features for stiffeners, such as darts and beads
  • -Stamped shapes, such as dimples, countersinks, pierced and extruded holes, and louvers
  • -Swept features (flanges, hems, user-defined)
  • The ability to capture the specifications used in Sheetmetal Design 2 in CATIA — Knowledge Advisor 2 (KWA). Captured specifications can be reused to improve productivity and quality and to implement corporate standards.
  • Interoperability with CATIA Version 4 data and its portfolio of applications. Version 5 parts can be used by Version 4 in downstream applications (analysis, digital mock-ups, assemblies, ...). This capability requires at least CATIA Version 4 Release 2.0 Refresh 1. Current Version 4 designs can be migrated to Version 5 when necessary. For example, Version 5 sheetmetal feature recognition can be applied to Version 4 solids.

RE: SMD vs SM1

Contact any DS training partner, they should be able to provide information about training on those module.
But looking at some DS web I can see only 2 SheeMetal training: SMD as the basic and Aerospace SMD. So my guess is take SMD training and learn about the function you'll be missing. SMD is 8H course.
