Autodesk Labs has released a new Shrinkwrap add-on for Inventor 2009.
Many of us have been waiting a long time for this. You can make a “shrinkwraped” version of your models, removing any internal faces. This could be very usefull when either sending a model to a vendor or end user when you don’t want them knowing the internal design, but want them to be able to use your product in a design. Or in making ”lightweight” versions of your models for 3D printing. Lightweight versions could also help in rendering when memory limitations become an issue.
