Autodesk Inventor Essentials Part 2

PDF
Course Duration: 2 Days

Course Overview

This courseware builds on the fundamental principles gained from Inventor Essentials part 1.

Delegates learn the basics of 3D sketching, and build upon 2D sketching knowledge. They will also learn new tools for creating more complicated shapes, cover parameters in more depth and assign appearances and materials to parts.

This courseware covers the fundamental principles and recommended workflows for “top down” design techniques as well as documenting assemblies. Delegates learn the proper techniques and recommended workflows for documenting assemblies using standard and exploded drawing views, how to customise assembly views, and how to create overlay views that represent multiple mechanism orientations.

Course Objectives

    • To teach delegates the recommended workflows and basic skills needed to create 3D sketches and create 2D and 3D curves.
    • Create more complex parts and shapes, and assign materials and appearances to parts.
    • Make better use of parameters.
    • To teach delegates “top down” design methods for creating assemblies.
    • Create view representations and positional representations.
    • Create part variations using iParts
    • Create exploded drawing views, overlay views.
    • Detailing drawings using automated dimensions, auto balloons, tables, and parameters
