Inventor Advanced – Factory Design & Utilities
Welcome to the Autodesk® Inventor & Factory Design Utilities Essential Training. This training will allows you to sample some advanced layout functionalities and efficient layout design workflows available in the Inventor & Factory Design Utilities.
This training workflow offers a one-to-one synchronization between your 2D AutoCAD drawings and 3D Inventor assembly models. Changes made in the 2D AutoCAD drawing propagate to the Inventor 3D layout, and changes in the 3D layout propagate back to the original 2D drawing. The bidirectional workflow provides veteran AutoCAD users with a familiar, easy-to-learn process for generating compelling 2D and 3D Factory layouts.
PREREQUISITES
Experienced with the Windows operating system and drafting of 3D parts
TARGET GROUP
Experienced 3D CAD User
Duration
5 Days (35 hours)
Course Achievement
Certificate of Completion by Autodesk
We’ll work through the basic 2D-to-3D workflow that is unique to Autodesk Factory Design. During the exercises in each section, we will use the 2D workflow in AutoCAD to easily create a rough layout of a work cell. When 3D elements are needed, we can use the Cross-Product Workflows tools to open your design in the Inventor environment where 3D modifications are easy to apply. Once the design is complete, the Cross-Product Workflows tools allows you to update all AutoCAD drawings. All of your layout’s Factory Design data is also stored in a Layout Data file, keeping your data connected, centrally located, current, and up to date.
