Note: This book is continued in Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) 2020: Introduction for Experienced 3D CAD Users - Part 2. Both books are required to complete this guide. The Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) 2020: Introduction for Experienced 3D CAD Users learning guide is intended to provide accelerated introductory training in the Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) software. This learning guide is designed for users that have 3D modeling design experience with other 3D CAD software packages (e.g., CATIA(TM), Pro/ENGINEER(R), Creo Parametric(TM), NX(TM), SolidWorks(R), etc.). By leveraging the experience users gain in working with other 3D modeling software packages, this hands-on, practice-intensive guide is developed so that new users in the Autodesk Inventor software can benefit from a shorter, introductory-level, learning guide. You are taught how to find and use the modeling tools associated with familiar modeling strategies that are used in other 3D CAD software. You will acquire the knowledge required to complete the process of creating models from conceptual sketching, through to solid modeling, assembly design, and drawing production. Topics Covered The Autodesk Inventor software interface Obtaining model information Creating sketch and pick and place features Work Features Creating equations and working with parameters Model geometry and model display manipulation Feature duplication techniques Placing and constraining parts in assemblies Assembly component display Presentation files (Exploded views and Animations) Assembly tools Creating parts and features in assemblies Creating and editing assembly Bill of Materials Working with projects Creating and annotating drawings and views Prerequisites Access to the 2020.0 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide are not compatible with prior versions (i.e., 2019). Prior knowledge of 3D modeling and 3D CAD software. Users with AutoCAD(R) or AutoCAD(R) Mechanical experience are recommended to use the Autodesk Inventor 2020: Introduction to Solid Modeling guide.

The Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) CAM 2022: Milling Fundamentals guide focuses on instructing new users on how to use the Inventor CAM add-on to create milling toolpaths. The guide begins with an introduction to the overall Inventor interface and explains how to manipulate your 3D model to change its orientation and view display. Through additional hands-on, practice-intensive curriculum, you will learn the key skills and knowledge required to take the 3D model, set it up in the CAM environment, and assign the 2D and 3D milling toolpaths needed to generate the CNC code required by milling machines. Topics Covered Navigate the Inventor software interface to locate and execute commands. Use the model orientation commands to pan, zoom, rotate, and look at a model. Assign visual styles to your models. Locate, modify, and create tools in the Tool Library. Set up machining operations using Inventor CAM. Create 2D Milling, 3D Milling and Drilling toolpaths using the Inventor CAM interface. Use the Simulation option to visualize toolpaths. Import a tool library. Create a toolpath template. Post process an Inventor CAM setup to output the CNC code required to machine a model. Prerequisites Access to the 2022 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide are not compatible with prior versions (e.g., 2021). As an introductory guide, Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) CAM 2022: Milling Fundamentals does not assume prior knowledge of Autodesk Inventor CAM. However, this guide will not provide instructional content on how to create 3D models using the Inventor modeling tools. Its focus is solely on generating 2D and 3D milling and drilling toolpaths once models are created. The Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) 2022: Introduction to Solid Modeling guide should be used to learn to create 3D models. It is recommended that users have prior experience with the Windows operating system, knowledge of 3D model creation/modification, and an understanding of the CNC milling process.

Technical Drawing 101 covers topics ranging from the most basic, such as making freehand, multiview sketches of machine parts, to the advanced—creating an AutoCAD dimension style containing the style settings defined by the ASME Y14.5-2009 Dimensioning and Tolerancing standard. But unlike the massive technical drawing reference texts on the market, Technical Drawing 101 aims to present just the right mix of information and projects that can be reasonably covered by faculty, and assimilated by students, in one semester. Both mechanical and architectural projects are introduced to capture the interest of more students and to offer a broader appeal. The authors have also created extensive video training (120 videos, 17 hours total) that is included with every copy of the book. In these videos the authors start off by getting students comfortable with the user interface and demonstrating how to use many of AutoCAD's commands and features. The videos progress to more advanced topics where the authors walk students through completing several of the projects in the book. The CAD portion of the text incorporates drafting theory whenever possible and covers the basics of drawing setup (units, limits, and layers), the tools of the Draw, Modify, and Dimension toolbars, and the fundamentals of 3D modeling. By focusing on the fundamental building blocks of CAD, Technical Drawing 101 provides a solid foundation for students going on to learn advanced CAD concepts and techniques (paper space, viewports, xrefs, annotative scaling, etc.) in intermediate CAD courses. In recognition of the diverse career interests of our students, Technical Drawing 101 includes projects in which students create working drawings for a mechanical assembly as well as for an architectural project. We include architectural drawing because our experience has shown that many (if not most) first-semester drafting students are interested in careers in the architectural design field, and that a traditional technical drawing text, which focuses solely on mechanical drawing projects, holds little interest for these students. The multidisciplinary approach of this text and its supporting materials are intended to broaden the appeal of the curriculum and increase student interest and, it is hoped, future enrollments.
