About this Course

CAD software like Autodesk Inventor makes sheet metal design quick and cost-effective.

This course shows designers how to use Inventor to plan, create, modify, and document sheet metal parts and assemblies.

Expert demonstrates how to set up your working environment, create flanges and other features with Inventor's specialized sheet metal tools, and modify parts—cutting, seaming, punching, and ripping as you go.

Expert also shows how to reuse existing design features through the use of the fold operation.

 

Finally, when your part is finalized and ready for manufacturing, expert show you how to document your design and get the flat pattern to production.
