Inventor LT

Experience the power of 3D

Inventor LT Subscription Renewal software allows you to adopt 3D mechanical part design-at the pace that's right for you. When you design using 3D models of parts, you can increase your productivity, reduce the risk of errors, and improve communication with customers and partners. You'll be able to compete more effectively as you move towards Digital Prototyping.

Inventor LT is also sold as part of the AutoCAD Inventor LT Suite, which includes AutoCAD LT. By turning to Inventor LT, you get many of the capabilities found in Autodesk Inventor software, including part-level 3D modeling, multi-CAD translation, and automated DWG drawing views. Interoperability with AutoCAD LT lets you continue to work with real DWG data.

Design Parts Faster and Better in 3D

With powerful part-level parametric modeling, Inventor LT delivers the capabilities you need to design mechanical parts in 3D. Use it to design even complex parts more quickly. Visualize and verify your part designs in 3D to avoid costly errors-before building expensive physical prototypes. Then generate photorealistic renderings of 3D part models to communicate design intent to customers and other reviewers. You'll reduce rework and cycle times, allowing you to bring better products to market sooner.

Share 3D Part Designs and DWG Drawings

With Inventor LT, you can reduce the hassle and inefficiency of working in today's multi-CAD environments. It allows you to easily share 2D and 3D design data with customers and suppliers-without relying on expensive file translation software. Import, create, modify, and export 3D part models in common file formats to streamline communication with your extended supply chain.
As projects progress, your downstream users need production-ready DWG drawings. With Inventor LT, you can generate production-ready drawings that automatically update whenever the 3D part model changes. And since the AutoCAD Inventor LT Suite includes AutoCAD LT, you can use familiar 2D tools to make quick changes to DWG drawings.

Leverage Existing 2D Designs and Expertise

Realize the benefits of 3D design while continuing to rely on the 2D designs and expertise you have built up over time. Autodesk has more experience with the needs of AutoCAD users than any other company, and Inventor LT was built with those needs in mind. Maintain your current 2D productivity by using AutoCAD LT when you prefer. Inventor LT also offers the industry's most seamless DWG interoperability, so you can work easily with existing 2D designs within a 3D environment.

Open the Door to 3D—and Opportunity

In today's competitive global marketplace, 3D is not a luxury for manufacturers. It's a necessity. Yet your current needs may not warrant a full Digital Prototyping workflow. Inventor LT offers DWG interoperability, affordability, and 3D capabilities. So you can use it to get your job done today and be ready for tomorrow-knowing that your Inventor LT designs will be fully compatible with the Autodesk Inventor family of software.
It's not just companies that need to compete. Individual designers and engineers do too. With 3D design becoming the standard, you need to keep your skills up to date. The 3D design skills you learn using Inventor LT are directly transferable to Autodesk Inventor, the top-selling 3D mechanical design software and the foundation of the Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping.
