Autodesk Inventor: Sheet Metal Design

This Autodesk Inventor training course introduces the concepts and techniques of sheet metal modeling with the Autodesk Inventor software. The structure of the training course follows the typical stages of using the Autodesk Inventor software. That is, to create and edit sheet metal parts, generate flat patterns, and document the designs in drawings.
