Layout and System Design

Layout and System Design

Getting the initial mechanical design concept right is the key to a successful mechanical engineering project. With Autodesk Inventor, you can move your initial design studies from paper by using the parametric design environment to develop initial concept sketches and kinematic models and rapidly investigate multiple design concepts.

Dynamic sketch blocks can enable you to quickly evaluate different concepts and convert your sketches into a fully constrained 3D assembly model to form a 3D digital prototype. The Design Accelerators in Autodesk Inventor offer the fastest way to add the remaining components, such as drive mechanisms, fasteners, steel frames, and hydraulic systems.

Direct Manipulation

Direct Manipulation

Autodesk Inventor 3D mechanical engineering products redefine ease of use with a revolutionary new design experience that features new methods for modeling parts and assemblies. Direct manipulation part modeling offers an uninterrupted design workflow. You can control all command inputs right at the point where you are directly affecting geometry. Dynamic input in the sketch environment helps you to sketch more freely and directly. The Assemble tool can enable you to "snap" components together quickly and accurately.

Rules-Based Design

Rules-Based Design

Autodesk Inventor features rules-based design and automation tools that can help accelerate design and enable engineers to focus on design intent rather than manually modeling geometry. Fully integrated Inventor iLogic™ technology can dramatically simplify rules-based design, so that any Inventor user—even those with little or no programming experience—can capture and embed engineering and product knowledge directly into virtual models. The iCopy feature automates the process of copying components, so you can easily customize commonly used assemblies.

Data Management

Data Management

Autodesk® Vault data management software is a centralized application within Autodesk® Inventor® 3D CAD software that enables teams to securely store and manage design data and related documents. Design workgroups can more easily manage and track all the design components of a digital prototype, so they can better reuse critical design data, manage bills of materials (BOMs), and collaborate earlier with manufacturing teams and clients.

Cable and Harness Design

Cable and Harness Design

The electrical systems in almost every product or machine require careful design of physical cables and harnesses. Incorporating cable and harness runs into your 3D digital prototype enables you to calculate accurate path lengths, avoid small-radius bends, and help ensure that electrical components fit into the mechanical assembly before manufacturing. Cable and harness design features include:

· AutoCAD® Electrical software interoperability

· Functional harness design

· Harness validation

· Harness documentation

· Automatic wire routing

Integrated Motion Simulation

Simulation Ease of Use

Optimize and validate product performance before the product is built. Easy-to-use and tightly integrated motion simulation and stress analysis tools in Autodesk Inventor Professional can enable you to predict how the design will work under real-world conditions, helping you save time and reduce prototyping costs.

Inventor Professional can help you find the best design solution without having to investigate an excessive number of options. Create parametric studies of design constraints and understand the effects of different parameter values.

The Simulation Guide helps you to set up loads, constraints, and contacts, as well as generate and interpret the results. Because the simulation tools are part of the 3D mechanical design environment, it is practical and cost-effective to employ simulation throughout the design process. A comprehensive simulation software environment provides support for motion simulation and static and modal finite element analysis (FEA), at both the part and assembly level.

Integrated Finite Element Analysis
