Digital Prototypes in Autodesk Inventor 1 Autodesk Inventor® provides a comprehensive set of 3D mechanical CAD tools for producing, validating, and documenting complete digital prototypes. The Inventor model is a 3D digital prototype. The prototype helps you visualize, simulate, and analyze how a product or part works under real-world conditions before it is built. Manufacturers get to market faster with fewer physical prototypes and more innovative products. Inventor provides an intuitive 3D design environment for creating parts and assemblies. Engineers can focus on the function of a design to drive the automatic creation of intelligent components, such as steel frames, rotating machinery, tube and pipe runs, electrical cables, and wire harnesses. Tightly integrated motion simulation and stress analysis in Inventor are easy to use. They make it possible for engineers to optimize and validate the digital prototype. Generating manufacturing documentation from a validated 3D digital prototype reduces errors and associated engineering change orders (ECOs) before manufacturing. Inventor offers rapid and accurate output of production-ready drawings directly from the 3D model. Inventor is tightly integrated with Autodesk® data management applications. This integration enables the efficient and secure exchange of digital design data and promotes earlier collaboration between design and manufacturing workgroups. Different workgroups can manage and track all components of a digital prototype with Autodesk® Design Review software. This software is the all-digital way to review, measure, mark up, and track changes to designs. You can better reuse crucial design data, manage bills of materials (BOMs), and collaborate with other teams and partners. Digital Prototype Workflow Before you start a design, determine the most efficient workflow. A top down workflow is often the most efficient way to create a design. In a top down 1
