This training course has been designed to build on the basic skills acquired from the Autodesk Inventor: Introduction to Solid Modeling course. The goal of this course is to help students achieve a higher level of productivity when designing part models using Inventor.

In this course, various approaches to part design are covered to expand your basic skills. Specific advanced part modeling techniques covered include bending and unwrapping model geometry, multi-body design, advanced lofts, advanced sweeps, coils, shape generator, and surface modeling. The course explains how to work efficiently with imported data as well as contains other material aimed at increasing efficiency such as iFeatures for frequently used design elements, and model states and iParts for similar designs.
