CAD-CAMChapter 1. An Introduction to Inventor Simulation
Simulation Overview
During a typical design process, designers go through a series of typical questions, like do the parts fit together? Do the parts move well together? Is there interference? And do the parts follow the right path? Even though most of these questions can be catered for by 3D CAD and Rendering Software, there may be other questions that cannot. For example, designers may want to know the machinery time cycle. Is the actuator powerful enough? Is the link robust enough? And can we reduce weight? All these questions can only be answered by building a working prototype or a series of prototypes. The major issue with this method is that it is timely and costly. An alternative cost-effective method is to create a working virtual prototype by using the Inventor simulation suite. Inventor simulation suite allows the designer to convert assembly constraints automatically to mechanical joints, provide the capability to apply external forces including gravity, and be able to take effect of contact friction, damping, and inertia. As a result of this, the simulation suite provides reaction forces, velocities, acceleration, and much more. With this information, the designer can reuse reaction forces automatically to perform finite element analysis, hence reducing risks and assumptions. ...
