Autodesk today announced a technology preview release of Autodesk Inventor LT software, a new member of its popular Autodesk Inventor family of software products — the world’s best-selling 3D mechanical design software.
Inventor LT will help customers enhance their communications with suppliers and manufacturing partners by making it easy and affordable to create, share and edit 3D part designs.
A trial version of Autodesk Inventor LT is now available for download from http://labs.autodesk.com for a limited time only.
“Inventor LT eliminates many of the headaches associated with moving files between different CAD systems,” said Rod Hunt, Sales Development Manager Manufacturing Solutions Division, Autodesk . “As a result, customers can realise the benefits of 3D part design and AutoCAD interoperability to get their jobs done faster and easier.”
Inventor LT is available now for a limited time as a free* download from the Autodesk Labs website http://labs.autodesk.com.
Inventor LT technology preview licenses will time out on May 1, 2008 (confirm date). Inventor LT Technology Preview is only available as English language software and is available for download only Australia, and New Zealand, after a limited release for the United States and Canada in May this year.
Create, Share and Edit 3D Designs for Improved Supply Chain Communication
Inventor LT helps customers improve their communications with their supply chain by making editable 3D part design data more accessible than ever before. Rich functionality available in Inventor LT enables designers of manufacturing systems to spend less time and money on file translation for suppliers and customers, due to Inventor LT ‘s affordable tools to import/export and create/modify 3D part models in many common file formats to meet requirements for communicating in both 2D and 3D. As the inventors of AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor LT lets you seamlessly add 3D to your design process because it is the only 3D software that lets you read and write native DWG files with full 3D associativity — no translation required.
“By supporting multi-CAD interoperability in most leading file formats, Inventor LT provides a tremendous solution for the entire manufacturing supply chain,” said Hunt.
“We are thrilled to make this one-of-a-kind product available to the extended manufacturing community.”
