Technical What’s NewWelcome to the Autodesk ® Inventor ® 2010 software product lineThe Autodesk ® Inventor ® 2010 software product line offers many significant usability and productivity enhancements that will benefitusers who need to create, optimize, and validate designs involving plastic parts, sheet metal parts, and large assemblies. Major areas offocus in this release include the following.Plastic Part DesignMultibody workflows, specialized plastic features, rule-based fillets, and associative import of exterior or A-side geometry fromAutodesk ® AliasStudio software provide Inventor 2010 the tools for designing complex molded parts (that update smoothly whenchanged) without requiring a lot of detailed geometry construction or intermediate steps.The Autodesk Inventor software product family includes a new application, Autodesk Inventor Tooling (included in Autodesk ® Inventor ®Professional software), for designing complex molded parts. It includes automated tools that leverage a digital prototype to quicklycreate and validate complete mold designs, reducing errors and improving mold performance.Simulation and Layout DesignThe new sketch blocks in Inventor 2010 provide a logical representation of both rigid and moving bodies that can be combined into 2Dkinematic models for detailed motion studies on different mechanisms. Inventor sketch blocks can be used to populate the assembly withcorrectly constrained part models based on the selected sketch.Inventor 2010 offers a new integrated simulation environment for motion simulation and finite element analysis (FEA) of both parts andassemblies. Support for modal analysis, parametric studies, and optimization helps make it much easier to perform what-if studies toselect the best design option and then push the resulting geometry back into the assembly model.Interoperability and Data ExchangeWith the new Shrinkwrap feature users have a new level of control over the simplification of large assemblies. You can quickly convert anassembly into a single part or surface model for use as an assembly substitute or to protect intellectual property when sharing modelswith third parties.The enhanced AEC Exchange tool simplifies the exchange of data for use in building design. With support for the new Autodesk Packagefiles (.adsk) and the Shrinkwrap tool, AEC Exchange allows users to publish data files with simplified 3D representations and intelligentconnections points for use in building models created using Autodesk ® Revit ® MEP software and Autodesk ® Revit ® Architecturesoftware.Inventor 2010 includes new translators for CATIA ® V5 R6 through R18 as well as enhanced JT support for reading and writing JT files.Usability and ProductivityUsability and productivity are enhanced with the introduction of a modern task based user interface and a large group of user requestedenhancements including user-defined browser folders, user-defined coordinate systems, document tabs, improved spline handles, XYZaxis indicators, Auto-save option, and many more.This release includes new sheet metal tools that simplify the creation of rolled features and lofted flanges such as square to round transitions.It also provides Unfold and Refold features making it much easier to define features in the flat.Drawing manager highlights include aligned section views, dual units display, and a very cool arrange dimensions tool.Inventor 2010 includes many enhancements designed to lower the cost of ownership: local, or desktop, content that does not requireinstallation of SQL/IIS on the user’s desktop, dynamic network licenses, and language packs.Thank you for your continued support of Autodesk Inventor,The Inventor Team2 Autodesk Inventor 2010
