What is Inventor?

Autodesk Inventor 2021 software provides engineers and designers a professional-grade design and engineering solution for 3D mechanical design, simulation, visualization, and documentation. With Inventor software, engineers can integrate 2D and 3D data into a single design environment, creating a virtual representation of the final product that enables them to validate the form, fit, and function of the product before it is ever built. Autodesk Inventor includes powerful parametric, direct edit and freeform modeling tools as well as multi-CAD translation capabilities and industry standard DWG drawings. Inventor is a Windows-based 3D CAD software that assists in 3D modelling through mechanical design, documentation, and product simulation tools. Professionals can create custom design configurations, automate repetitive tasks, and include 3D dimensions, annotations, and dimensional tolerances to 3D models. They can also optimize designs using a shape generator and check the fit and performance of designs at the assembly level, simulate 3D models of weld frame designs, prepare sheet metal products for manufacturing, and add model-based definition. This comprehensive solution helps users reduce development costs, get to market faster, and make great products
