We are pleased to launch a new facility that has been added to our web site.  We have recently introduced an on-line secure area which can be used to upload CAD data. The intention is to help in the transfer of larger CAD data that may be blocked by some e-mail limitations.

On several of our CAD workstations using Autodesk Inventor 2009, we have noticed that they frequently seem to lock up whilst adding assembly constraints, if left alone for long enough it comes back to life eventually. We have not worked out yet if this is from any particular constraint or command but will keep it posted. Has anyone experienced this ?

We have since deleted all the Content Centre Parts from one of the models and it instantly improved, it was not a large CAD model with less than 100 fixings as a guess. If we can find the logic we will keep it posted !

NOVA has recently setup a Web Conferencing facility to enable our clients to view our CAD workstation screens in a real time environment. This along with our conference room facility has proved beneficial as a design review aid without us or our clients having to commute.

We have Solid Egde V20 and have installed Autodesk Inventor 2009 suite onto the same workstation. We have now noticed that if you click on the Material Table command in Solid Edge it crashes.

Has anyone else experienced this issue ?

We are currently looking for a team of Electro-Mechanical design draughtsman for a number of positions with our client in the Worcestershire area. A working knowledge of Autodesk Inventor is essential.
