Autodesk Inventor Essentials Part 1

PDF
Course Duration: 3 Days

Course Overview

Delegates are introduced to the fundamental principles of 3D parametric part design. Learn how to create intelligent parametric parts by capturing design intent and how this helps to streamline the process of modifying and documenting designs.

Learn the fundamental principles and recommended workflows for creating 3D assemblies and learn the proper techniques and recommended workflows for creating, placing, and constraining custom and standard components in an assembly.

Delegates learn the proper techniques and recommended workflows for creating base, projected, section, detail, and isometric views of 3D parts and assemblies. Students will also learn how to define and follow drafting standards while dimensioning and annotating drawing views.

Course Objectives

    • Understand the fundamental concepts, workflows, and benefits of 3D parametric part and assembly design using Autodesk Inventor
    • Locate and navigate the Autodesk Inventor user interface and the multiple design and documentation environments
    • Start designing simple parts and assemblies using basic sketching and modelling tools
    • Create basic engineering drawings from 3D part and assembly models
    • Annotate drawings by adding dimensions, text and balloons.
    • Update drawings as changes are made to the 3D model

Prerequisites

    • Some design or engineering experience. It is recommended that you have a working knowledge of Microsoft supporting systems.

D. James Jones, Excel Level 2

Following this training what are you going to do differently Use Excel more often for valuable shortcuts to tasks that would otherwise take me a long time.

J. , Excel Level 2

Which part of the course did you find particularly valuable Knowledge on different scenarios. Knowledge from the trainer. Ability to be more confident at work.

T.W. Cirrus Environmental Solutions Ltd, HR Essentials

Programming bespoke functions, familiarity of code, variety of available techniques.

P.L. WestRock, VBA Essentials using Excel

Which part of the course did you find particularly valuable All of it, but mostly use of formula and tables

S.H. GSK, Excel Level 2

How would you rate the course materials overall FANTASTIC

C. The Auckland Castle Trust, Photoshop Level 1

Which part of the course did you find particularly valuable All of the course. A lot of these are tips that I will use every now and then, and some i.e. quick paths are ones I will begin using regularly.
