Develop a solid foundation in Autodesk Inventor’s core tools. New users learn parametric part design, assembly design and the preparation of production-ready drawings.
Practise creating basic 3D parts, assemblies and drawings with a structured introduction to Inventor’s features and commands.
At the end of the course, you will be able to:
- Understand the Inventor User Interfaces & workflow.
- Create Parts, Assemblies & Draft/Drawing.
- Edit and reuse Parts & Assemblies.
- Creating sketches using 2d sketch tools.
- Differentiating between Parts, assembly & Drawing.
- Making assembly constraints and simple mechanisms.
