Autodesk Inventor is a computer-aided design (CAD) software developed by Autodesk for 3D mechanical modeling, simulation, visualization and documentation. For data management, Autodesk recommends its in-house solution Vault. PDM Studio is a suitable alternative to this system and offers numerous complementary advantages.
The direct integration of PDM Studio in Inventor makes it possible to efficiently manage the product data and call up the functions directly from Inventor. A time-consuming change of the application is not necessary. This saves time and the focus remains on the daily work.

Do you have questions about PDM Studio?
Some functions that can be started directly from Inventor are:
- Switch directly to PDM Studio
- Saving in PDM Studio
- Check out documents for editing
- Create copies, for example, including the linked drawings
- Change release and status
- Create a revision/version
- Direct opening of the drawing belonging to a 3D model
All information provided by Inventor is also mapped in PDM Studio:
- Structure of the assembly and the connection of 3D model and drawing.
- Quick overview of the assemblies without having to open Inventor.
- Synchronization of file properties between Inventor and PDM Studio.
- Use the information to fill in the title block in Solid Edge or to derive BOMs in Inventor.
- Additional documents can be added to the structure or to a single document for more clarity, e.g. a PDF containing the specifications for a purchased part can be attached directly to the part.
The integration and introduction of PDM Studio is usually possible within a few weeks. Preparation of all data in advance is not necessary. Inventory data is transferred 1:1 from another PDM system or the folder structure and only optimized in the course of processing. It doesn't get any faster or easier than this!
