Download or read book Mastering Autodesk Inventor 2015 and Autodesk Inventor LT 2015 Autodesk Official Press written by Curtis Waguespack and published by Serdar Hakan DÜZGÖREN. This book was released on with total page 1058 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Autodesk® Inventor® program was introduced in 1999 as an ambitious 3D parametric modeler based not on the familiar Autodesk® AutoCAD® software programming architecture but instead on a separate foundation that would provide the room needed to grow into the fully featured modeler it is now, more than a decade later. Autodesk Inventor 2015 continues the development of Autodesk Inventor with improved modeling, drawing, assembly, and visualization tools. Autodesk has set out to improve this release of Autodesk Inventor by devoting as much time and energy to improving existing tools and features as it has to adding new ones. With this book, the sixth edition of Mastering Autodesk® Inventor® 2015 and Autodesk® Inventor LT™ 2015, I have set out to update the existing pages and add new content and exercises. In these pages, you will fi nd detailed information on the specifi cs of the tools and the principles of sound parametric design techniques. Some readers will fi nd this book works best for them as a desktop reference, whereas others will use it primarily for the step-by-step tutorials. With this in mind, I’ve worked to shape the pages of this book with a mix of reference material, instructional steps, and tips and hints from the real world.

Download or read book Autodesk Inventor 2015 A Tutorial Introduction written by L. Scott Hansen and published by SDC Publications. This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique text presents a thorough introduction to Autodesk Inventor for anyone with little or no prior experience with CAD software. It can be used in virtually any setting from four year engineering schools to on-the-job use or self-study. Unlike other books of its kind, it begins at a very basic level and ends at a very advanced level. It’s perfect for anyone interested in learning Autodesk Inventor quickly and effectively using a “learning by doing” approach. The philosophy behind this book is that learning computer aided design programs is best accomplished by emphasizing the application of the tools. Students also seem to learn more quickly and retain information and skills better if they are actually creating something with the software program. The driving force behind this book is “learning by doing.” The instructional format of this book centers on making sure that students learn by doing and that students can learn from this book on their own. In fact, this is one thing that differentiates this book from others: the emphasis on being able to use the book for self-study. The presentation of Autodesk Inventor is structured so that no previous knowledge of any CAD program is required. This book uses the philosophy that Inventor is mastered best by concentrating on applying the program to create different types of solid models, starting simply and then using the power of the program to progressively create more complex solid models. The Drawing Activities at the end of each chapter are more complex iterations of the part developed by each chapter’s objectives. CAD programs are highly visual, there are graphical illustrations showing how to use the program. This reinforces the “learn by doing” philosophy since a student can see exactly what the program shows, and then step through progressive commands to implement the required operations. Rather than using a verbal description of the command, a screen capture of each command is replicated.
