Using this student guide, you will learn how the iFeature, iPart, and iAssembly tools can be used to leverage existing geometry to quickly and easily create additional or slightly varied geometry, and how iMates can be used to define geometry placement in an assembly. \u003cbr\u003eThe remaining chapters in the student guide focus on how you can simplify a model to create positional configurations to evaluate components' range of motion (Positional Representations), create simplified geometry to share with customers while protecting your intellectual property (Shrinkwrap and Assembly Simplification), and how to manage working with large assemblies (Level of Detail Representations). \u003cbr\u003eThe topics covered in this student guide are also covered in the following ASCENT student guides, which include a broader range of advanced topics: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ci\u003eAutodesk\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e Inventor\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e 2017: Advanced Assembly Modeling\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eAutodesk\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e Inventor\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e 2017: Advanced Part Modeling\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTopics Covered\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCreate and place an iFeature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the Copy command to duplicate features in a model or between models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate a table-driven iFeature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdit an iFeature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate an iPart that can generate different configurations of a model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsert standard or custom iParts into an assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplace an iPart in an assembly with a new iPart instance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModify an iPart factory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse a table-driven iPart to create an iFeature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild iMate constraints into parts or subassemblies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombine multiple iMates into a Composite iMate group.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManually or automatically match iMates of parts in an assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl the order in which iMate pairs are previewed by using the Match List functionality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVary constraint settings in iParts by including iMates.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate and place an iAssembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdit an iAssembly Factory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate and edit different positional representations of an assembly by overriding the existing settings of an assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate a Shrinkwrap part that is a simplification of the original component.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelectively determine which assembly components to include in a simplified view and use that information to create a new part model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefine bounding box or cylindrical geometry to represent assembly components and use that information to create a new part model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombine the use of a simplified view, envelopes, and visibility settings to create a new simplified model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay a system-defined Level of Detail (LOD) Representation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimplify the display and create user-defined LOD Representations in an assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplace a complex component for a simpler one using a Substitute Level of Detail Representation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePrerequisites\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe material covered in this student guide assumes a mastery of Autodesk\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e Inventor\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e basics as taught in the Autodesk\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e Inventor\u003csup\u003e(R)\u003c\/sup\u003e: Introduction to Solid Modeling student guide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ascent -.
