Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) 2020: Surface and Freeform Modeling guide teaches you how to incorporate surfacing and freeform modeling techniques into your design environment. You begin with instruction on how to create the splines and 3D sketches commonly used in surface creation. Chapters on surface creation focus on using these sketches or existing geometry to create surfaces for use in your solid models. Freeform modeling is also covered, which enables you to create complex shapes without needing the constraints required in a parametric workflow. To complete the guide, you will learn how to use the Autodesk Inventor surface analysis tools to evaluate the continuity between surfaces and the curvature on a surface, determine if the applied draft is within a specified range, and conduct section analysis to evaluate wall thickness values. The topics covered in this guide are also covered in ASCENT's Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) 2020: Advanced Part Modeling guide, which includes a broader range of advanced learning topics. Topics Covered Create spline and 3D sketched entities. Create planar and three-dimensional surfaces. Combine individual surface features into a single quilted surface. Add or remove material in a model by referencing a surface. Create solid geometry using surface geometry. Remove portions of a surface using a reference surface or work plane. Manipulate the extent of a surface by extending or stretching it. Create a new solid face by replacing an existing solid face with surface geometry. Remove existing surfaces or solid faces from a model. Copy surfaces from one model into another. Create freeform geometry base shapes, faces, and converted geometry. Edit freeform base geometry by manipulating existing geometry or adding new elements to the base shape. Use the surface analysis tools to evaluate continuity between surfaces, check draft values, analyze curvature on a surface, and review sectioned areas of the model. 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 might not be compatible with prior versions (i.e., 2019).

Book Autodesk Inventor 2019  Working with 3D Annotations and Model Based Definition  Mixed Units

Download or read book Autodesk Inventor 2019 Working with 3D Annotations and Model Based Definition Mixed Units written by ASCENT - Center for Technical Knowledge and published by ASCENT - Center for Technical Knowledge. This book was released on with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autodesk® Inventor® 2019: Working with 3D Annotations & Model-Based Definition teaches experienced Autodesk Inventor users how to create 3D annotations to support the visual presentation of annotations in 3D PDF format and a Model-based Definition (MBD) workflow. The geometry designed in a 3D CAD modeling environment is created perfectly. During the manufacturing stage, it is not possible to achieve the same perfection. Variations in size, feature location, and orientation are unavoidable. This learning guide instructs how to use the tools in Autodesk Inventor 2018 to create 3D annotations that communicate dimensional and GD&T data, hold/thread notes, surface texture requirements, and informational text-based annotations; all of which aim to improve manufacturing accuracy. Additionally, this learning guide explains how you can share your 3D annotated models as 3D PDFs, as STEP files for use by other software applications, or in 2D drawing views. Topics Covered: Creating dimensional annotations.Creating hole/thread note annotations.Creating surface texture annotations.Creating text-based annotations to a model to communicate additional modeling information.Creating tolerance features to a model.Using the Tolerance Advisor to review informational messages and warnings on the tolerance features in a model.Creating a general profile note annotation. Prerequisites:Access to the 2019 version of the software. The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions.Knowledge of GD&T required. The international GD&T standard, ASME Y14.5M-2009, governs how annotations should be added to clearly describe the model’s intent. This learning guide assumes that you know how the model is to be annotated and aims to only explain how they are added using the Autodesk Inventor software.Students should have completed the Autodesk® Inventor® 2019: Introduction to Solid Modeling learning guide or have an equivalent understanding of the Autodesk Inventor user interface and working environments.
