Inventor Freeform Modeling

Designs for a consumer product usually start with a general primitive shape; whether it is a box, sphere, cylinder, etc.  However, for products to be more ergonomic for consumers to use in day-to-day life, and especially with a market that is as competitive as ever, designers and engineers need to make as ergonomic, sleek, and organic of a product as ever before.  A few examples where this comes into play include the design of chairs, computer mice, grips, helmets, cars, and the list goes on.  This is why it is important to learn about the freeform modeling tools that exist inside Autodesk Inventor.  Join Customer Success Manager Brian Mongkolpoonsuk as he takes us into the world of freeform modeling.  During this session, you will learn how to:

• Start your freeform design with a good foundation

• Incorporate your design with parametric features

• Make your design as light as possible for the computer to process

• Utilize face/edge/vertices selection to your advantage to get your desired result

• Utilize crease, match, insert edge, edit form, etc. tools inside the freeform -environment to achieve desired results
