Learn how Autodesk Inventor now supports publishing assemblies to Content Center, making reusable sub‑assemblies easier to standardize, place, and configure across designs. For many Inventor users, Content Center has long been a cornerstone of efficient design workflows. It’s where teams manage and reuse standard components, including fasteners, hardware, and purchased parts, without reinventing the wheel…

Learn how Autodesk Inventor helps engineers design industrial machinery, automate custom equipment design, manage large assemblies, and accelerate product development. What is industrial machinery design? Industrial machinery design is the process of engineering machines and mechanical systems used in production, manufacturing, and heavy-duty operations. It covers everything from early concept and CAD modeling to simulation,…

Learn how Code Blocks makes iLogic automation in Autodesk Inventor easier with visual, block‑based rules that help designers automate tasks and learn iLogic faster. Automation has long been one of Autodesk Inventor’s biggest advantages. For years, iLogic has helped designers and engineers automate repetitive tasks, configure complex designs, and enforce design standards directly inside their…

Explore how Model‑Based Definition (MBD) in Autodesk Inventor, combined with connected product data in Autodesk Vault, improves fabrication accuracy by replacing drawing‑centric workflows with a single, controlled digital definition of design intent. What Is fabrication accuracy in manufacturing? Fabrication accuracy refers to how closely manufactured parts match the intended design geometry, tolerances, and functional requirements…

Autodesk Inventor has consistently proven itself as a superpower for automation.  The specialized modeling tools quickly design sheet metal, tube and pipe, and weld frames.  iLogic reduces the time it takes to perform modeling changes from days to just minutes.  These features save time so you can focus on more important work.  So what’s next…
