The material assumes a mastery of Autodesk Inventor basics, as taught in Inventor beginner and intermediate courses.

Users should know how to create and edit parts, use work features, create sheet metal parts, design automation tools, create and annotate drawing views, etc. The use of Microsoft Excel is required for this course.

Learning Objectives

  • Learn how to 3D sketch for geometries that lie on several work planes
  • Create frames using the tools contained within the Frame Generator environment, as well as learning various methods for creating and controlling the skeletal model that drives the layout of the frame.
  • Create models for weld prep, welds, and machining in the Weldment Environment.
  • Create complex sketches that define complex geometry in Autodesk Inventor using Splines and Surfaces
  • Learn the basics of conducting stress analysis tests of parts and assemblies with Inventor, and uncover the weak points of your designs.
  • Setup, run, and examine a basic frame analysis. learn how to analyse parts and assemblies, perform parametric design studies, and use modal analysis in the Frame Analysis Environment of Autodesk Inventor.

 

  • Learn how to validate digital prototypes by simulating the operation of mechanisms and motorized assemblies in the Dynamic Simulation Environment.
  • Design physical cables and harnesses for electrical systems in almost any kind of product or machine. Calculate accurate path lengths, avoid small-radius bends, and help ensure that electrical components fit into the mechanical assembly before manufacturing.
  • Design routed elements, including tubing, piping, and flexible hose. These are rules-based routing tools that select the correct fittings and helps the pipe run to comply with your standards for segment length, round-off increments, and bend radius, that you will learn to maximize.
  • Create a 3D rendering of an existing model in Autodesk Inventor. Learn how to change lighting, cameras styles, and background scenes to produce realistic images and animations.

  • Creating and editing secondary solid features that are sketched and placed
  • Creating equations and working with parameters
  • Manipulating the display of the model
  • Resolving feature failures
  • Duplicating geometry in the model
  • Placing and constraining/connecting parts in assemblies
  • Manipulating the display of components in an assembly
  • Obtaining model measurements and property information
  • Modifying the components in an assembly
  • Creating parts and features in assemblies
  • Creating and annotating drawings and views
  • Working with projects
  • Collaborate with alternative file Exports and Imports

Design project

 

This course is designed for users that already have a basic working knowledge of Autodesk Inventor.

Students should have a basic understanding of Autodesk Inventor parametric part and assembly design. It is recommended that you have a working knowledge of Microsoft supporting systems.

 

Learning Objectives

  • Quick Overview-Standard Part and Assembly modelling
  • Introduction to Sheet Metal interface
  • Create and edit sheet metal parts, generate flat patterns, and document the designs in drawings.
  • Introduction to iFeatures – convert a single feature or a collection of features into a feature you can reuse in other part files.
  • Introduction to iParts – generate part variations that differ by size, material, or other variables
  • Direct editing other Sheet Metal CAD files and exporting DXFs and

DWGs

  • Introduction to iMates for faster assembly modelling
  • Simulating motion in an assembly by Driving Constraints
  • Creating Assembly Presentation files (Exploded views) and Animated videos
  • Creating and editing an assembly Bill of Materials
  • Annotate assembly drawings with automated balloons and part lists.
  • Leveraging AutoCAD DWG Underlays to translate AutoCAD 2D data to Inventor sketch data and use it to create a part.
  • Introduction to iLogic – it provides a simple way to capture and reuse your work with a few codes.
  • Copying and sharing Inventor Files using Pack and Go, iLogic copy and Design Assistant
