Introduction to Parametric Modeling Using Inventor

Using Inventor software, this course focuses on 3-D solid parametric modeling in an engineering design environment. Hands-on learning in basic sketch profiles with constraint based 2-D shape control is studied. Part design, Boolean operations, placed features, parametric features, dimensions and constraints, design modification of solid parts, analyzing and documentation of the part or parts are also covered. Bi-directional control of 3-D model to 2-D part drawing is studied. The use of rapid prototyping techniques for model creation and design, analysis and redesign are incorporated.
