It is not necessary to install every Update. Inventor LT is limited to 3D part modelling. You can get current on the latest release simply by installing the latest Update and its prerequisite. You can also buy a cut down version of Inventor called Inventor LT or in a suite called AutoCAD Inventor LT Suite. These Updates include new capabilities and/or bug fixes that improve the 2022 release. Many early problems have been solved and local network use has improved.Ĭontinual crashes, printer problems at almost every update (Inventor and Windows), networks, both local and external, with the usual Autodesk problems (We are Inventor users since version R3), bloatware starting to creep in, and too expensive.The table below lists Inventor 2022 Updates available to active subscription and maintenance plan customers. Large assemblies and projects are usually no great problem. 2D operations are sufficient for sketches and model work. Once you get used to using it, it is generally a good 3D creator and the standard libraries provide a relatively wide selection of parts. Inventor and Networks are not good bedfellows, however, and why must the damn Downloading and Licensing be such a theater?
We used it mainly for R&D, in which we find it usable with some features earning a 'good' and even a 'very good'. Also there is no assembly mirror that associative! You have to use pattern, if you can! These are basic standards in even older softwares! How can Inventor not have these Basic staples! Weak points for sure.įrequent crashes, printer problems, network headaches, too expensive, funcionality middle grade.Ī number of irritating problems functionally have prevented us from integrating Inventor fully into our systems. So if you insert 100 Identical components, it’s gonna take you forever to constrain them in your assembly. There is no “copy with mates” like others softwares have.
This is a real great software, but I must be honest at 2 Major weak points that are deal breakers for me and maybe others. The frame members can be trimmed and you can create your own profiles! Also ipart creation make things easy. I love the rendering and Frame generator! Frame Generator is freaking Awsome! Literally allows you to build a complex frame out of a sketch or a simple extrusion. It’s getting better every time, the other 20% is just basic frustration not being able to mirror components in assemblies and keep them linked, and not being able to copy mates on assemblies is just a big time waster.
