This course covers the fundamental principles of 3D parametric part design, assembly design, and creating production-ready part and assembly drawings using Autodesk® Inventor. Students learn how to capture design intent by using the proper techniques and recommended workflows for:

• Creating intelligent 3D parametric parts
• Creating, placing, and constraining custom and standard components in an assembly
• Simulating mechanisms, animating assembly designs, and checking for interferences

Students also learn how to:

• Document their designs using base, projected, section, detail, and isometric drawing views
• Document assemblies using standard and exploded drawing views
• Follow drafting standards while dimensioning and annotating drawing views with automated balloons and parts lists

AutoCAD® Fundamentals Part 1

February 13-15, 2012  9:00am - 4:30pm. Register Now
March 12-14, 2011  9:00am - 4:30pm. Register Now

Students learn the indispensable core topics for working with AutoCAD®. Starting with a few basic tools that enable students to create simple drawings. Then students will continue to develop those tools, as well as being introduced to more advanced tools.

Specific topics include:

• Understanding the AutoCAD® workspace and user interface
• Using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools
• Organizing drawing objects on layers
• Inserting reusable symbols
• Preparing a layout to be plotted
• Adding text, hatching, and dimensions

Please call 763-420-6600 for pricing.

AutoCAD® Fundamentals Part 2

February 16-17, 2012  9:00am - 4:30pm. Register Now
March 15-16, 2012  9:00am - 4:30pm. Register Now

Students continue to learn more sophisticated techniques that extend your mastery of the program. For example, here you go beyond the basic skill of inserting a block to learn how to create blocks, and beyond the basic skill of using a template to understand the process of setting up a template.

Specific topics include:

• Using more advanced editing and construction techniques
• Creating local and global blocks
• setting up layers, styles, and templates

This course provides an overview of AutoCAD Electrical and is designed to enables user to quickly create and manage electrical-controls production drawings. Users focus on how to build intelligent ladder diagrams and panel layouts, and how to leverage the intelligence built into AutoCAD Electrical. Students also larn how to customize databases and other reference files to tailor AutoCAD Electrical software to specific projects and company requirements. Students will learn to be more productive by updating title block attributes, generating automatic reports, using PLC I/O modules, managing cables, and using the circuit builder. Hands-on exercises representing real-world design scenarios are included.

• Describe the AutoCAD Electrical user interface and follow the basic electrical project design workflow
• Manage projects and the multiple drawing and inter?drawing relationships contained in electrical projects
• Insert wires, add wire numbers, manage circuits, and create point?to?point wiring diagrams and drawings
• Extract information from drawing to create Bill of Material, Wiring, and other reports
• Change project and drawing configurations, create drawing templates, and manage reference file and directory search paths
• Create custom schematic and panel symbols to meet your specific needs and customize the icon menu system to include the new symbols
• Edit part catalog, footprint lookup, pin list, and terminal properly databases
• Use automated processes, such as generating reports and updating drawings from spreadsheets to improve design productivity
• Insert parametric PLC I/O and standard full-unit modules in your schematic drawings, as well as create custom PLC I/O modules

It is recommended that attendees have previous AutoCAD® knowledge.
