Autodesk Inventor Professional

The educational version comprehends all features and functions. There is no reference to the educational version in print nor the classic watermark. 

Inventor 3D CAD software provides professional-grade mechanical design, documentation, and product simulation tools. The software includes:

• Powerful blend of parametric, direct, freeform, and rules-based design capabilities. 
• Integrated tools for sheet metal, frame design, tube and pipe, cable & harness, presentations, rendering, simulation, machine design, and more. 
• TrustedDWG compatibility and powerful Model-Based Definition capabilities for embedding manufacturing information directly in the 3D model.
  
  

Key new features and enhancements of Inventor 2024:

• iLogic with Vault. Apply iLogic code directly with Vault to copy files, apply numbering schemes, and check out documents.
• Finish utility. Use the new finish feature to specify the appearance and manufacturing process such as material coating or surface finish.
• Mark feature enhancements. Mark across all faces in your path and wrap around curved geometry with new mark feature options.
• Drawing revision cloud. Isolate areas of special interest with the sketch-based revision cloud feature in the drawing environment.
• View setting improvements. Create compelling visual representations of your design with improved view settings, section view enhancements, and IBL environments.
• Tube and pipe enhancements. Create custom elbows quickly and easily in the tube and pipe styles area.
• Parameter enhancements. Include hardness and parameter in expanded unit type export with the option to export Boolean values for custom iProperties.
• Optimized bounding box assembly. Automate the orientation and size of bounding boxes for parts with additional angle options in assemblies.
• Connected inspection workflow. Create an inspection plan of your design by sending your models directly to Fusion 360.
• Weld symbol. Create drawing-associated weld and subweld symbols to be included upon export to 3D PDF, DWF, and Shared Views.
• Edge symbol. Use the new edge symbol feature with appearance settings based on ISO standards and a properties panel with various customization settings.
• Model-based definition enhancements. Explore several improvements to model-based definitions for your documentation workflows in the 3D environment.
