PacWest Racing Group recently adopted Autodesk's Inventor to design parts for its race cars. Each flange has three precision pockets that drive the tripod-like CV joint. In a machine where almost every part is custom built and each car is designed, tested, and built in a three-month time frame, it's imperative that designers learn the software quickly. Julian Karras, PacWest's drawing office manager who oversees product design, detail, and development, was up and running on Inventor in an afternoon. Another key issue is software compatibility.
Inventor makes it easy.
We obtain really accurate results using on-screen simulations. Karras says that Inventor's simplicity, ease of use, and learning, intelligence, and on-screen animations are just a few of the many benefits that can help everyone involved in new vehicle design. All rights reserved.
