Capacity and Performance

With the capacity to design large complex machines including tens of thousands of components, you don’t need expensive hardware. The segmented database architecture will continue to increase in capacity to meet your needs and is now faster than ever.  Autodesk Inventor 9 users will experience performance gains in all areas of the product.

The creation and editing of large assembly drawings will be greatly improved with an enhanced drawing manager.  In addition, large assembly drawings will benefit from new load on demand functionality and z-plane clipping controls for drawing view optimization.
