    V5 Volumes

    I have several questions about Volumes in V5 GSD. I understand that it is a closed skin. but that's all I know. 1)What is the logic (benefit) behind using them? 2)How do Volumes compare to Solids and Surfaces? 3)Are there users designers that use Volumes regularly?

    Helical Gear design

    Is there an automatic helical gear generator for CATIA V5. There's a pretty powerful one in Autodesk Inventor, where you can input the data and it will generate your gear. I was wondering if any have come across a similar one for V5?
