Design Mechanisms
A mechanism is defined as a design with one or more moving parts. inventor provides numerous tools to assist you in creating and evaluating a mechanical design. Use sketch blocks in a 2D part sketch to create a schematic layout of your mechanism. create flexible , nested blocks and apply sketch constraints to define subassembly kinematics. Derive sketch blocks into component files and create other features to develop your 3D models. The components remain associated to their corresponding blocks and update to reflect any changes in block shape. Use the following tools to evaluate a mechanism in the 3D environment:
â
Animate an assembly constraint and enable collision detection to determine the exact point of contact. Drawings
A drawing consists of one or more sheets that each contain one or more 2D drawing views and annotations. Drawings are associative to the digital prototypes. Any change to the model is automatically reflected in the drawing the next time you open it. You can create a drawing at any point in the design process, and it always reflects the current state of the digital prototype. annotations can include dimensions , symbols , tables , and text. Start Drawings
Drawings are created from a drawing template file. The available templates are presented in the tabs of the New File dialog box. drawing templates can contain sheet formats , borders , title blocks , and sketched symbols. Templates also control the default styles and standards used for the appearance of views and annotations. When you start a drawing, the title block, border, sheet size, and other elements come from the template. Inventor Drawing Tips:
â
The template you select to create a drawing file determines the default sheet size, title block, border, and so on. [. . . ] Â

If you do not create a project or specify a different project, when you start working in Inventor a default project is automatically active. Your files are saved to the Default project.
