Content Center

The Autodesk Inventor installation provides a set of Content Center libraries that include over 750,000 standard components.

The standard libraries are available from the Autodesk Inventor installer.

You can expand the standard database by creating user libraries with your custom content. User libraries include customized content copied from a standard library, or new user-published parts or features.
