CATIA - DMU Navigator 2 (DMN)
Product Overview
CATIA - DMU Navigator 2 (DMN) performs advanced collaborative DMU review,
packaging and pre-assembly, using optimum visualization, navigation and communication
capabilities. High graphic performance is provided to the user. Productive 3D navigation is
ensured through group management and selection capability. A large number of tools
(annotation support, hyperlink and animation creation, publishing and conferencing tools)
facilitate collaboration between all team members involved in DMU inspection. User
productivity is enhanced through the ability to automate commands and work on
visualization files for quick data loading. Batch mode can be used to further improve cache
management. Combined kinematics and fitting simulations can be performed to extend
review capabilities. Interoperability with CATIA V4 is supported.
Addressing all populations involved in Digital Mockup related processes, CATIA DMU
Navigator 2 handles digital mockups of all sizes from consumer goods assemblies to very
large automotive, aerospace, plant, ships or heavy machinery mockups.

Product Key Customer Benefits
File Access
A large set of 2D and 3D document types is supported (CATIA and industry standard
formats). Moreover, access to data is very quick thanks to a selective loading mode: the
product structure is first loaded without its 3D representation, and then a portion of the DMU
3D representation is loaded.
Other tools enable easy and flexible access to data for efficient navigation. For instance,
groups of independent components can be created. Parts can also be selected according to a
distance criterion.
Multiple synchronized animations involving both kinematics and fitting motion simulations
can also be performed.
Automation
Automation of commands is supported for enhanced user productivity. Major DMU
commands are concerned (Markup, Group, Proximity Query, Replay, Scenes, Move, etc.)
Integration with ENOVIA V5 VPM With ENOVIA V5 VPM, ENOVIA - DMU Navigator
creates a breakthrough targeting all the actors across the product lifecycle involved in
reviewing processes as it offers an immersive and direct access to to the configured digital
mock-up with advanced reviewing capabilities. It leverages the 3D instant conferencing
productivity by the usage of capabilities like annotations or presentations.
With the management of reviewing information through technological packages inside
ENOVIA V5 VPM, it widens the scope of concurrent engineering and reviewing and
increases know-how usage and enables unmatched and accurate lifecycle management of this
information

Conferencing capability
Conferencing tools enable collaboration on a project review from different location. Two
types of conferencing are proposed to the user. Shared Conferencing enables the team
members to share the view of the master application and interact in it. In the case of
Replicated Conferencing, each member has his own application and the master controls the
data viewed by other participants. Thus, the confidentiality of the conference is ensured.
Cache management
Cache management, interactively or in batch mode, ensures fast access to data while the
automatic reconciliation mechanism guarantees that the reviewed data is always up to date.
Automation
Automation of commands is supported for enhanced user productivity. Major DMN

V4 interoperability
CATIA DMU Navigator 2 can work with either CATIA V4 or V5 stored data. No conversion
is required to access V4 data.
