Overview

The Autodesk Inventor import converter module allows geometry, hierarchy and materials (assembly data) to be imported from native disk-based Autodesk Inventor files or from a running copy of the Autodesk Inventor 3D solid modeling application using the Autodesk Inventor automation API. No intermediate files are used in the translation.

This import converter allows data to be directly imported from Autodesk Inventor into any Okino compliant program, such as NuGraf, PolyTrans, the 3ds Max native plug-ins, or the Maya native plug-in module. The following screen snapshot shows the "engine" sample Inventor assembly imported and displayed, with chrome mapping, in Okino's NuGraf software:
