What to Expect from Inventor?

by Aliza Wajih

Hey Everyone!

It’s ResBaz time again! If you have chosen the Inventor stream for your ResBaz conference or if you just would like insight into inventor this should be a good read.

So, What is inventor?

Inventor is a 3D CAD software offering professional-grade tools for 3D mechanical design, documentation and product simulation. If you are doing research on a product that you would like to design and possibly have manufactured, Inventor is the tool you would use to design it!

Its application is largely in engineering. This software helps you easily handle large assemblies and automates advanced geometry creation for intelligent components. You can design using sheet metal, plastic parts, steel frames and rotating machinery as well as tube and pipe runs!

However animation tools and free-form modelling make it a great software for art and free-hand design too!

Freeform Modelling View

Who is this class for and what do you expect to learn?

This class is for beginners! Don’t worry if you’ve never used 3D modelling software. We will go through it at a pace that will keep everyone on board! If you’re a fast learner there will always be more exercises to keep you busy.

In our class we’ll be going through basic design element. We will look at how to take a 2-dimentional drawing & make it a 3D model! We will also look at how to work with multiple parts and make more complex geometries further on in the course. We will conclude the session by learning how to do some free-form modelling, as well as 3D printing our final products!

It is going to be a guided session with plenty of helpers and plenty of fun - hope to see you all there! 

Let’s bring our inventions to life with Autodesk Inventor!

Here is a rough timetable we will follow! See you all there :)
