32 - Fillets | 3D Modeling | Autodesk Inventor Professional Tutorial

Autodesk Inventor Tutorial #32 – How to Use the FILLET Feature in Autodesk Inventor Professional In this Autodesk Inventor tutorial, we dive deep into the Fillet Feature—a key tool in 3D part modeling used for creating smooth transitions between edges and surfaces. This video covers how and when to use fillets, best practices for adding them to your designs, and the difference between internal and external edge filleting. You’ll also learn about advanced options like variable radius fillets, G2 continuity, and using multiple radii within a single feature. This tutorial is essential for anyone looking to clean up sharp edges, reduce stress concentrations, and improve both the function and appearance of their parts. What’s Covered in This Video: - Introduction to the Fillet feature under the Modify tab - Why fillets should be added last in your design process - Creating a basic 3D part and adding holes as preparation - Exploring the different types of fillets: constant, variable, inverted - The difference between internal and external fillets (material addition vs. removal) - Fillet preview behavior and how to interpret red/orange/blue indicators - Using multiple radii within a single fillet feature using the "+" function - Understanding how fillets affect the browser tree and feature history - Tangent and G2 (smooth) continuity options for aesthetic and stress-reduction purposes - Practical tips for reducing stress concentrations in load-bearing parts - Real-world examples: why airplane windows have rounded corners - The aesthetic benefits of fillets in consumer product design - Using body selection to apply fillets to entire parts - Clearing selections and restarting the feature cleanly - Preview of next tutorial: Chamfers and their applications Need professional design assistance or CAD support?
