    Where is Mechanical Desktop 2010 MDT in AutoCad Inventor Pro Suite 2010 and 2011? Seem to be discontinued.

    If yes!

    Where are the tool for 3D Fasteners in AutoCad Mechanical included in AutoCad Inventor Pro Suite 2010 and 2011?

    Since 2009, I do not have of these any more!!!

    Mechanical Desktop has been discontinued as of Mechanical Desktop 2009.
    However, you can download a 2010 install version of MDT 2009 or request
    it here:

    You could contact Autodesk directly about the 2011 install version of
    MDT2009.

    Dennis is correct. Mechanical Desktop has been discontinued. The 2009 version was the last and final version. We made the installer available at the link indicated by Dennis. Please note that you must have Inventor installed on the target machine before running the MDT installer. Also note that this will work with all versions of Inventor 2011 except the Inventor Tooling Suite. We are working on a fix to support Inventor Tooling Suite.

    MDT 2009 is already install, since 2009!!!!

    The problem is, I do not have the fonctions that MDT add before, in my AutoCad Inventor Pro Suite 2010 and 2011 that Buscom sold to us! It was suppose to be included in those version.

    So where are de 3D Fasteners in AutoCad Mechanical today???? With out using Inventor.

    As stated, MDT is no longer shipped with Inventor. You have to download it from www.autodesk.com/mdt.
    It will install as long as Inventor 2010 or 2011 is already installed.

    AutoCAD Mechanical is not Mechanical Desktop (MDT).

    Hello!

     

    Is there any chance to see ”3D Fasteners” from MDT included in an AutoCAD Mechanical version? I work daily with this option and i can not use an AutoCAD Mechanical because i can not use 3D Fasteners (i am not an Autodesk INVENTOR user because i do not need it)

    I think i am not the only one who will not buy an AutoCAD Mechanical because of this....

    It seems that is necessary for Autodesk to understaind that there are some certain things that it should not give up. One of this is ”3D Fasteners” from MDT.

    Can Autodesk help us? If ”YES”, when?

     

    Thank you!

     

    Best regards,

    Cristian
