AutoCAD Training Overview
This course will introduce students to the commands, techniques, and concepts of Autodesk Inventor. Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to construct "intelligent" 3D parametric parts, to arrange parts in assemblies, and to create a 2D drawing from the 3D model.
- Getting Started
- Constraints and Dimensions
- Creating a 3D Part
- Editing Sketches
- Finding, Storing, and Using Information
- Adding More Features
- Introduction to Assemblies
- Refining the Assembly
- Annotation
