Autodesk has hit a milestone of 1000 customers in the aerospace and defense industry thanks to the easy of Autodesk Inventor for prototyping and simulating designs in real-world scenarios.

Inventor software’s Digital Prototyping capabilities helped ADEPT produce accurate 3D models of the 320T before anything was actually built, reducing the number of physical prototypes that needed to be constructed. Processes that once took hours – such as changing the wall thickness of an engine component – were completed almost instantaneously with Autodesk Inventor software. As a result, engineers were able to spend less time constructing geometric models and more time creating innovative designs, and then simulating the performance of the designs under real-world conditions.
