Autodesk CFD provides computational fluid dynamics and thermal simulation tools so you and your team can more easily predict product performance, optimize designs, and validate your product behavior prior to prototyping and manufacturing. This recap of a recent Autodesk Virtual Academy session features James Neville – a simulation expert with a specialty in CFD at Autodesk.

One of the most common issues we run into here at the KETIV Support desk is how to restore the Vault tab if it goes missing in Inventor. We’ll show you three ways to solve this issue so you can get your Vault tab back.

At some point, most users will run into some kind of dilemma that’s linked to dimension styles in Autodesk Inventor software. If you’re designing an engine you’ll want different dimension style than say, a watch. Or maybe your project is growing into something that needs a different style than when it started. I’ll show you […]

I’m in the middle of a machine design that the client wants to be all mechanical. Well, they are allowing a couple of limit switches, but other than that, it’s completely mechanical. Three of us here at KETIV are each putting in effort to get this assembly finalized. I am working on the internal mechanism […]

How do I get an Inventor model into Revit? How can I easily transfer models from Inventor to Revit? Am I able to open up an Inventor model in Revit and save it as an RFA file? Can I export an Inventor model to an RFA file? Can I save as my Inventor model to […]

In my adventures taking aircraft maintenance classes at Mount San Antonio College, I’ve learned a lot of things. Not the least of which, is how much I have to learn! Another piece of knowledge I’m grateful for, is how to drive and set solid rivets. I’m not the best at it, but I can do […]

For my post today, I thought I’d delve into creating transparent parts in a drawing.

Lately, I’ve been doing a lot of work inside of Inventor drawings. During that time, I was asked how to make sure that all my text and symbols will move with a view. If you’ve used Inventor for a while, you may have noticed that if you put in a text or symbols next to […]
