Mechanical design with intent

Course overview

Machines and Mechanisms are the most common elements mechanical engineers calculate and design. Learn how to design machine elements in a hypothetical project we provide using Autodesk Inventor and one of its key productivity tools - Design Accelerators.

This content focuses on best practices and WHYs behind certain decisions you have to make as a mechanical engineer.

You will learn the following skills:

• Use CAD efficiently to design machines and mechanisms.
• Design and calculate shafts.
• Design and calculate gears and bearings.
• Design and calculate belt drives.
• Design and calculate bolted connections.
• Design and calculate frames.
• Design and calculate other machine elements.
