Inventor
Autodesk® Inventor® 2021 software provides engineers and designers professional grade design and engineering solution for 3D mechanical design, simulation, visualization, and documentation. With Inventor software, engineers can integrate 2D and 3D data into a single design environment, creating a virtual representation of the final product that enables them to validate the form, fit, and function of the product before it is ever built.

nTop
nTop is a computational design software platform that enables engineers to create, analyze, and optimize complex geometry using implicit modeling and field-driven design methodologies. Unlike traditional boundary representation (B-rep) CAD systems, nTop uses implicit modeling technology to represent geometry through mathematical functions, allowing for unbreakable parametric models that remain stable across large geometric changes and enabling direct integration with simulation workflows.
