The software is used to develop new designs and create templates that allow data to be entered directly into an existing model which will automatically update to produce a finished drawing and parts list. This will greatly improve accuracy and reduce design time. Digital prototyping using Inventor also reduces the need to produce physical prototypes.
In addition to the primary design function, the Inventor system can also be used to instruct those on the manufacturing side of the company how the products are put together and to demonstrate to clients the processes involved in manufacture and the way in which the various movable wall systems operate.
