CATIA integration with Nora IPLM

What is CATIA Integration in Nora IPLM?

The CATIA integration connects your CAD environment directly with Nora IPLM through Nora IPLM Desktop Services, giving teams a controlled way to synchronize CATIA files and product data into cloud PLM workflows.

  • Synchronize CATIA parts, assemblies, drawings, metadata, and product structures.
  • Maintain revision and version history across design iterations.
  • Link CAD information to BOMs, documents, engineering changes, and workflows.
  • Support complex product structures and multi-disciplinary development.
01

Single Source of Truth

Bring CATIA data, product structures, documents, BOMs, and lifecycle information into one connected environment so engineering and downstream teams work from the same controlled product definition.

Single source of truth for CATIA and PLM data
02

Automatic Version Control & Traceability

Track CATIA design iterations, versions, and revisions with a clear history. Teams can understand which design is current, what changed, and how each update connects to product decisions.

Automatic version control and traceability
03

Effortless Collaboration Across Teams

Give engineering, product, manufacturing, quality, and other stakeholders access to the product context they need without relying on disconnected file transfers or manual handoffs.

Collaboration across CATIA and PLM teams
04

Reduced Manual Overhead & Errors

Reduce duplicate entry, manual uploads, and spreadsheet-based tracking by synchronizing product information directly between CATIA workflows and Nora IPLM.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does CATIA integration with Nora IPLM enable?
The integration connects CATIA design data with Nora IPLM so teams can synchronize files, metadata, product structures, revisions, BOMs, documents, and engineering changes within a controlled PLM workflow.
Do I need to change how I work inside CATIA?
No. Engineers can continue designing in CATIA using their normal workflows while Nora IPLM Desktop Services supports synchronization of the connected CAD and product data.
What software is required for the CATIA integration?
The integration uses the Nora IPLM Desktop Services application installed on the workstation where CATIA is running, together with a connected Nora IPLM account.
Can non-CAD users review CATIA-related product information?
Yes. Nora IPLM can keep CATIA data connected to product records, documents, BOMs, and supported neutral formats so non-CAD users can participate in review and collaboration workflows.
Does Nora IPLM support revision and version control for CATIA data?
Yes. Nora IPLM maintains revision and version history so teams can understand design changes, compare product states, and maintain lifecycle traceability.
Can CATIA data be connected to engineering change workflows?
Yes. CATIA-related product data can be linked to change requests, approvals, documents, BOMs, and other PLM objects so design updates remain connected to the wider engineering change process.
