Product Description
Mastering Inventor 2011 begins with an overview of Inventor design concepts and application before exploring all aspects of part design, including sketching, basic and advanced modeling techniques, working with sheet metal, and part editing. The book then looks at assemblies and subassemblies, explaining real-world workflows and offering extensive detail on working with large assemblies.
Weldment design is detailed next before the reader is introduced to the functional design using Design Accelerators and Design Calculators. The detailed documentation chapter then covers everything from presentation files to simple animations to documentation for exploded views, sheet metal flat patterns, and more. The following chapters explore crucial productivity-boosting tools, data exchange, the Frame Generator, and the Inventor Studio visualization tools. Finally, the book explores Inventor Professional's dynamic simulation and stress analysis features as well as the routed systems features (piping, tubing, cabling, and harnesses).
Mastering Inventor's detailed discussions are reinforced with step-by-step tutorials, and readers can compare their work to the downloadable before-and-after tutorial files. It also features content to help readers pass the Inventor 2011 Certified Associate and Certified Professional exams and will feature instructor support materials appropriate for use in both the training and higher education channels. Mastering Inventor is the ultimate resource for those who want to quickly become proficient with Autodesk's 3D manufacturing software and prepare for the Inventor certification exams.

I'm pleasantly surprised with the amount of useful information in this book. I thought I'd pick up a couple of things here and there, but it seems that I learn a new method or tip on each topic. I've even gone back and done some of the more basic beginner tutorials and have picked up some tricks from those. One thing I find interesting about the style of this book is that there are often several tools demonstrated in a single tutorial. For instance I just finished a loft tutorial that covered a number of surfacing tools as well.
There is a lot of information in this book, and I haven't gotten to it all, but I feel very good about having this on my desk when I need it. I think this one has something for everyone from new users to seasoned pros. Glad I bought it.
Having had the pleasure of taking a few classes in advanced modeling that main author Curtis Waguespack has taught. I know Im going to get the very best information possible. I continue to learn new little tricks and different ways of doing things every day. This series of books along with my machineries Handbook are always within reach.
This book would be the extremely helpful to everyone from beginner to advanced power users.
This book has it all. From design conception, implementation, and final release of drawings to part fabrication is all covered. No matter what stage your organization is utilizing Inventor, this book has the information to get your projects from design to the shop floor, faster and more accurate.
