We ran a benchmark on a standard engineering workstation (Intel Xeon W-2245, Quadro RTX 4000, 64GB RAM) comparing R31 vs. R33.
| Operation | V5 R31 | V5 R33 | Improvement | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Open Large Assembly (2k parts) | 42 sec | 29 sec | 31% faster | | Regenerate Complex Surface (GSD) | 8 sec | 4.2 sec | 47% faster | | Save to ENOVIA (Delta save) | 12 sec | 2 sec | 83% faster | | Drawing Regeneration (50 views) | 35 sec | 18 sec | 49% faster |
Verdict: R33 is objectively faster under the hood, thanks to multicore threading improvements in the geometric kernel (CGM). catia v5 r33 new
If you hate detailing, R33 is your best friend. The Automatic Dimensioning tool in the Drafting workbench has been completely rewritten.
Don't overlook the boring stuff. R33 fixes major headaches for IT and PLM managers. We ran a benchmark on a standard engineering
Previously, automated dimensions created a mess of overlapping lines. In R33, the AI-driven layout engine analyzes the 3D model’s functional tolerances (via the Functional Tolerancing & Annotation workbench) and places dimensions with:
Practical impact: A drawing that took 4 hours to clean up manually now takes 30 minutes. If you hate detailing, R33 is your best friend
The biggest selling point of R33 is the ability to connect the "Classic" V5 environment to the "New" 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
