Digital Prototyping with Autodesk Inventor software gives manufacturers the ability to digitally design, visualize and simulate how a product will work under real world conditions before it is built. Digital Prototyping reduces reliance on physical prototypes, which helps reduce cost and speed time to market in highly competitive industries.
"Autodesk Inventor 2011 leads the 3D CAD industry with Digital Prototyping tools that help manufacturers design better products, reduce development costs, and get to market faster," said Amy Bunszel, senior director, Digital Engineering, Autodesk Manufacturing Industry Group. "Designers and engineers can expect dramatic usability and productivity gains across our entire 2011 manufacturing software portfolio."
"We're excited for the launch and looking forward to the year ahead. The new Autodesk products, paired with our team of experts, create a powerful partnership and in turn, increase the overall value of offerings to our clients," says Matthew Burke, Principal of M2 Technologies. "The 2011 product line consists of valuable tools that will help our customers more efficiently and productively solve their design challenges."
M2 Technologies has been a leading provider of Autodesk solutions since 1999. They are one of only eight Autodesk Gold Partners in the United States, a Consulting Services Partner and an Authorized Training Center (ATC).
M2 Technologies will be offering the new versions of the following Autodesk products:
AutoCAD Electrical 2011 software helps electrical controls designers to quickly create control system designs and easily access extensive catalog information for large electrical controls projects.
AutoCAD Mechanical 2011 software's streamlined design environment gives users vastly improved access to power dimensioning functionality, which automatically aligns part dimensions with the rest of the drawing properties, without ever opening a dialog box.
Autodesk Algor Simulation 2011 mechanical simulation tools now feature integration with Autodesk Moldflow 2011 software, allowing engineers to utilize Moldflow analysis results and the extensive Moldflow material database when performing simulations on plastic parts.
Autodesk Alias 2011 family -- Alias Sketch, Alias Design, Alias Surface and Alias Automotive software -- deliver surfacing capabilities supported by industry-leading sketching, modeling and visualization tools. New Autodesk Alias Sketch software's unique hybrid paint and vector workflow helps creative professionals quickly transform ideas into compelling design iterations.
Autodesk Inventor 2011 software's new direct manipulation capabilities fundamentally improve the mechanical design process. Inventor 2011 software also incorporates Autodesk's leading design visualization capabilities so users can better conceptualize and communicate designs within the 3D CAD application.
Autodesk Inventor Publisher software makes its commercial debut after its recent Technology Preview on Autodesk Labs. The easy-to-use software for creating compelling product documentation enables manufacturers to provide their customers with clearer and more comprehensive technical instructions by leveraging the same digital model used in the design to manufacturing process.
Autodesk Moldflow 2011 software helps users simulate and optimize plastics part and injection mold designs long before manufacturing begins. Users can now easily export their Moldflow analysis results to Autodesk Showcase 2011 visualization software to expose defects and see how the part will look in real life, helping them to assess part quality and make design decisions.
Autodesk Vault 2011 family now features a heads-up display for easily managing design data and graphically mapping Vault information directly to Inventor models to streamline workflows, fundamentally improve the reporting and decision-making process, and accelerate model selection and interaction.
