- Part Design: parametric solid modeling with features like pads, pockets, fillets, chamfers.
- Assembly Design: hierarchical assemblies, constraints, large assembly management.
- Generative Shape Design (GSD): advanced surface modeling (splines, NURBS), used for freeform surfacing.
- Sketcher: 2D constrained sketching environment driving features.
- Drafting/Drawings: 2D engineering drawings, annotation, GD&T support.
- Sheet Metal Design: specialized features for flanges, bends, reliefs, unfolding.
- Wireframe and Surface, Imagine & Shape: additional geometry tools.
- DMU (Digital Mock-Up): kinematics, clash detection, ergonomics, visualization for large assemblies.
- Analysis & Simulation: basic finite element tools; deeper simulation via integration with SIMULIA or other CAE packages.
- Knowledgeware: automation, rules, macros, and knowledge capture (iLogic-like behavior via VB/VBA or CAA).
