Inventor 11: Advanced Modeling is the third in a series
of courses on Inventor from ASCENT. The goal of this
class is to build on the skills acquired in the Inventor
Introduction to Solid Modeling and Intermediate Modeling
courses to take students to a higher level of productivity
in Inventor.
In this course, we begin by discussing the concept of Top-Down
Design for assembly creation. Planning the assembly using
the top-down design approach helps create clean, reusable
geometry that interacts as expected with the rest of the
assembly. Throughout the course you will be taught how
various Inventor tools can be used to achieve Top-Down
Design practices in your assemblies. Other advanced assembly
topics include Positional and Level of Detail Representations,
Design Accelerator and CAD management techniques that aim
to help you become more efficient when working with assemblies.
Topics
include:
•
Introduction
of the Top-Down Design technique for creating assemblies
and its components.
•
Inventor
tools for Top-Down Design, including creating parts
and features in the context of the assembly, associative
links, adaptive parts, skeleton models, and derived
components.
•
Applying
motion to existing assembly constraints using either
Drive Constraints or Motion and Transitional Constraints.
•
Analyzing
model geometry using Inventor analysis types (Curvature,
Zebra, Gaussian Curvature, Draft and Cross Section).
•
Creating
Positional Representations of an assembly to review
motion, evaluate the position of assembly components,
or document an assembly in a drawing.
•
Creating
Level of Detail Representations to reduce the clutter
of large assemblies, as well as reduce your time
spent waiting for your system to retrieve a large
number of components in an assembly.
•
Using
the Design Accelerator to easily insert standard
and customizable components and features into your
model.
•
Creating
sketched symbols in drawings.
•
Creating
rendered realistic images and animations of parts
and assemblies using Inventor Studio.
•
CAD
Management tools such as the Style Library Manager,
the Style Management Wizard, as well as creating
customized title blocks, borders and command options.
•
Link
system parameters and custom parameters to an external
spreadsheet file and use it to drive parameters in
the model.
Prerequisites: The
class assumes a mastery of Inventor basics as taught
in Inventor Introduction to Solid Modeling. Inventor
Intermediate Modeling and a basic understanding of
surface creation is recommended.
