AutoCAD Training Overview
The Learning Autodesk Moldflow Insight Basic 2012 training material consists of two training guides: Learning Autodesk Moldflow Insight Basic 2012 Theory & Concepts, and Learning Autodesk Moldflow Insight Basic 2012 Practice. The Theory & Concepts guide discusses the theory, background, and workflows used in Autodesk Moldflow Insight Basic to teach students to apply Moldflow analysis techniques to their parts. In the Practice guide students are provided with exercises to practice the workflows that have been discussed. Overall, the goal is to teach students to become more efficient at creating digital prototypes, running analyses and interpreting the results of most of the analysis types available in the Basic package.
