If lighting isn’t great, the screen is hard to see. To understand why, we first need to bear in mind that today’s user environments are very different from how they were when Inventor was first released, almost two decades ago.īack then, the desktop was king and designers and engineers didn’t expect mobility from their computing.įast-forward to today, and the mobile workstation is a big part of the picture and software is used in a wide variety of locations, environments and lighting conditions. Sham Tickoo, Purdue University Northwest, USAĬADCIM Technologies, 525 St.While I realise that icon redesigns may not be the most enthralling of subjects, in this case, it seems perfectly valid. Also, the users will learn the editing techniques that are essential for making a successful design. Additionally, the author emphasizes on the solid modeling techniques that will improve the productivity and efficiency of the users.Īfter reading this textbook, the users will be able to create solid parts, sheet metal parts, assemblies, weldments, drawing views with bill of materials, presentation views to animate the assemblies, and apply direct modeling techniques to facilitate rapid design prototyping. The mechanical engineering industry examples that are used as tutorials and the related additional exercises at the end of each chapter help the users to understand the design techniques used in the industry to design a product. All environments of this solid modeling software are covered in this textbook with thorough explanation of commands, options, and their applications to create real-world products.

Autodesk Inventor Professional 2020 for Designers is a comprehensive textbook that introduces the users to Autodesk Inventor 2020, a feature-based 3D parametric solid modeling software.
