Autodesk Moldflow Adviser Design Plug-in for Inventor

This new plug-in into Inventor and Inventor LT 2012 can provide near real time feedback to design decisions you make, while you are developing the plastic product. You will get direct feedback on how the design desisions impact the manufacturability, cost and sustainability of the product. The easy to interpret feedback can ensure that the design process moves in the right direction and that the part is developed to conform to plastic part design guidelines.

Autodesk Inventor – Changing material properties across multiple parts

Here at Tata Technologies we often get asked a lot of great questions and I try to share those as much as possible.  This post is no different, we have been recently asked “What is the best way to change material properties in multiple parts without Vault or going through the task of opening each file?”  It’s is very easy just watch the video.
