In this project, my teammate and I expand our knowledge of Autodesk Inventor, including using more sophisticated modelling techniques, engineering drawings, and assemblies.


For example, using assembly files in Inventor allowed me to put our assigned suction tool and our container together:

I was able to first to put the tool on top of the non-extruded container, draw around it, and make a tool-shaped extrusion. Then, I made a new assembly with the updated container and tool, to make sure the tool fit in properly.

Our team also made low-fidelity prototypes for the first time - admittedly, some were better than others.
