IP Protection and Simplify

Industrial Machine customers have a need to remove IP (intellectual

property) from their catalog models before making them accessible to
their customers.
BIM and Simplify

Based on the requirements of BIM (Building Information Modeling),

Inventor customers have a desire to lighten HVAC models to be
consumed in Revit as well as make them accessible through email and
on the web.
Shrinkwrap vs. Simplify

The shrinkwrap feature

Automatic

Intended to be very interactive with greater
flexibility than shrinkwrap

Remove Details
Simplify the model by removing:
recognized fillets and /or
chamfers
custom-selected faces.

Fill Voids
Cap holes and pockets with
surface patches to fill model voids.
