info passage from solidrks to inventor

[drake]

hi to everyone, I write here x which are solidworks user, but if you think the discussion is to be moved do it quietly.
I wanted to know, from those who have already made the passage of the cad from solidworks to inventor, the time that really takes x be productive regardless of the obvious work of transformation of their library. Thank you for telling me your experience.
Thank you.

Since no one answered me I ask the administrators to move the discussion under the inventor section, maybe someone will answer me... Thank you.

Thank you.

depends on too many factors.
how many files you have the library, setting settings, any files. . .
I think no one can give you a real answer because it depends on too many things.

ii thank you, but I meant the time that most or less takes x be master of the software regardless of the library.

 

[teseo]

how long did you take to be "master" of solidworks? I think the time is the same....

I would be very careful to make such a migration....they have become so vast that knowing more than one good.... well, here is a little difficult

hello and good luck

 

[drake]

Thanks teseo and crack the wolf!

I don't understand why switching to another medium-range cad, even if the 2 sw nn are too different the same will be for the results with more the deficit of adaptation to inventor. Perhaps the change would make sense by moving to a higher-end cad type creo.

Solidworks does a lot of things and switch to inventor who has some different things in management I don't see a winning strategy unless you want to see the sw dealers anymore.
who passed from creo to solidworks noted that if set well the parametric would no longer return with creo even if it can be convenient to iron the pieces by trade.
If you want to be operational it takes about a month to set everything up and learn to do four things. within two months of installation you could be 100% operational. conversion of files could lead to loss of information and management difficulties.

My idea, however, is still only an idea that perhaps will never materialize, is linked to the fact that my use of the cad of mechanical origin is a bit "improprious", because I use it for civil structures, especially steel. It is undeniable that "my world" in good and evil belongs to self-desk. So I have a working group using the software of the latter. to have greater integration would be good to have equal software. Besides, what x me still has some value, autodesk allows you to install the software even on a laptop, with ds instead I have to move license, so since I work in two different offices sometimes I can't work because I forget to move. then if I don't have the internet in another office or is there a problem on the network I do not work? Moreover x last, but not really, I saw that autodesk, that knows long, begins to fresco really complete packages with quite competitive prices. instead with ds you pay every year update and assistance, which let us say x how it is.....
in the light of all this I have come across the idea, although at the only thought of learning other software I feel bad.. .

is a little "improper", because the use for civil structures, especially steel.

If you do that, take a look at: https://www.autodesk.com/products/advance-steel/overviewI use inventor in purely mechanical field but sometimes I have to make steel structures.
with inventor I do, but to say it's the right program, I don't feel like doing it.
if you are then tied to an environment where inventor is preponderant, it is clear that a change would make more sense.
I find myself, paradoxically, having to think of a change to the reverse, around me I have more people using sw, but the passage scares me not little.

Thanks stefanobruno! advance I know it as a product, I don't question its great practicality and speed but I don't think it is a design software, but drawing. what you do with the classic cad3d with advance in my opinion you can't do it, first of all for the graphics that is absolutely not comparable. instead with sw or inv you can do everything you want without any limit both in design and design, if not time.
the passage between various cads is always a big problem, especially x those who do not only and exclusively the designer, but must take care of the profession at 360 °. said this, I think today sw and inv very similar, surely x something is better one and x others the other, it is obvious.

a couple of months could also be an acceptable time. . Thank you!
