AutoCAD and DWG Interoperability in Autodesk Inventor
Autodesk® Inventor® software delivers the best integrated simulation tools in the industry. Tools for calculations, stress, deflection, and motion simulation enable engineers to optimize and validate digital prototypes before a product is built.

The comprehensive simulation environment in Autodesk® Inventor® Professional and AutoCAD® Inventor® Simulation Suite software provides support for motion simulation and static and modal finite element analysis (FEA) at both the part and assembly level. Dynamic simulation results enable engineers to use FEA more effectively.

Simulation capabilities in Inventor can help you:
  • Optimize the strength and weight of your designs to minimize material usage.
  • Set up tests you can feel confident about, based on real-world constraints.
  • Check designs for high stress concentrations and modify part geometry to meet safety factors.
  • Size motors and actuators to reduce energy consumption and costs.
  • Identify and reduce unwanted vibrations to improve product quality.
  • Improve product performance by investigating dynamic behavior of mechanisms.
  • Design cams and grooved paths by specifying the motion of followers.
  • Balance rotating components to reduce internal stresses.
