Inventor Parametric Modeling Best Practices

Inventor’s true power lies in parametric design–the ability to create models that are connected from top to bottom in a way that lets you change a design element, and all other related elements automatically update themselves. Parametric design reduces the time needed to update models when a design changes, and cuts down on human errors introduced by such changes. In this productivity training, we will learn ways to parameterize parts and assemblies and review techniques and practices vital to success.
