Abstract

CATIA V6 has found extensive applications in the water conservancy and hydropower industry. However, when it comes to generating sectional views, CATIA V6 still faces some challenges. For instance, the generation of sectional views relies on the selection of projection profiles, which are limited to the XY, XZ, and YZ planes by default. This restricts the ability to create custom profile sets based on specific rules. To address the issue of generating profile sets, this paper proposes a method based on CATIA V6’s custom features and the CAT3DBagRep interface. This method enables the rapid generation of a series of profiles based on specified rules, filling the gap left by CATIA V6’s inability to generate profile sets. This approach facilitates the batch generation of sectional views with irregular projection profiles.
