The course runs in 2-hour sessions over 35–40 hours, in small batches of 5–8 or one-to-one. You practise on a real mechanical assembly — a pump housing assembly with individual machined parts, fasteners, and exploded views — built from scratch to final engineering drawing set. One-to-one training suits mechanical engineers working on live product development or manufacturing projects who need to apply Inventor skills directly to current design challenges.

Autodesk Inventor is Autodesk’s professional parametric 3D mechanical design software, used by mechanical engineers, product designers, and industrial engineers to model parts, build assemblies, design sheet metal components, perform stress analysis, and produce engineering drawings for manufacturing. It integrates with AutoCAD, Vault, and Fusion 360 within the Autodesk ecosystem, making it the preferred 3D CAD tool for organisations already using Autodesk products. In the UAE, Autodesk Inventor is used in oil & gas engineering (ADNOC, DEWA), industrial manufacturing across JAFZA and Dubai South, defence and aerospace supply chains, and product design firms across Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Autodesk Inventor training at Orbit Training Centre in Dubai prepares mechanical and product engineering professionals to design, document, and simulate mechanical components using Inventor’s complete feature set.
Dubai and the wider UAE are undergoing sustained industrial expansion. According to Dubai Statistics Centre data, Dubai’s industrial and manufacturing sector contributes significantly to the emirate’s economic diversification goals under the Dubai Industrial Strategy 2030.
Firms across JAFZA, Dubai Industrial City, and Kizad require mechanical design engineers proficient in 3D CAD tools — and Inventor is the dominant choice for organisations embedded in the Autodesk ecosystem.
ADNOC Group companies, DEWA engineering divisions, and UAE defence contractors sourcing from Tawazun-aligned manufacturers all place Autodesk Inventor skills among their core mechanical engineering requirements.
Mechanical design engineers in Dubai with 3D CAD proficiency in Inventor typically earn AED 6,000–15,000 per month, with oil & gas and advanced manufacturing roles reaching AED 18,000–25,000 for experienced leads.
In this course, you build a complete mechanical assembly project in Autodesk Inventor from first sketch through to a full engineering drawing set ready for manufacturing. You will learn to:
Sessions run 2 hours each across 35–40 hours. You leave with a full mechanical assembly model, drawing set, and iLogic template as portfolio output.
This course requires no prior Autodesk Inventor experience. It is ideal for:
If you have a basic mechanical engineering background and understand sketches, parts, and assemblies conceptually, you have everything needed to start. No 3D CAD experience is required.
| Job Title | Sector | AED Salary Range / Month |
|---|---|---|
| Junior Mechanical / Design Engineer (Inventor) | Manufacturing / industrial | AED 5,000–8,000 |
| Mechanical Design Engineer (3D CAD) | Oil & gas / EPC contractor | AED 8,000–14,000 |
| Senior Mechanical Design Engineer | ADNOC / DEWA / defence supply | AED 14,000–22,000 |
| Lead / Principal Design Engineer | Large EPC or OEM | AED 20,000–30,000 |
| Freelance CAD/Design Consultant | Independent | AED 4,000–10,000 per project |
Mechanical engineers with Inventor certification work across oil & gas firms in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, industrial manufacturers in JAFZA and Kizad, food and beverage equipment manufacturers, UAE defence and aerospace supply chains, and product design studios. Inventor skills also transfer readily to GCC markets including Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
Karthikayan Balamurugan, CAD and BIM trainer with 15 years of experience, has trained over 2,000 professionals at Orbit Training Centre across AutoCAD, Revit, Autodesk Inventor, and mechanical and industrial design disciplines.
The most common gap seen is mechanical engineers who can do 2D drawings in AutoCAD but struggle to build a parametric 3D model — this course closes that gap by building a real assembly from scratch in every session.
The free demo session at Orbit includes a live Inventor walkthrough of a 3D mechanical part — you watch a pump component modelled from sketch to finished solid, with constraints and features explained in real time. You can ask the trainer about your specific mechanical background and current software.
One-to-one training works particularly well for engineers with live product development work: you can bring your actual project into the sessions and build the Inventor model around your design constraints.
Post-training support includes 30-day continued access to course materials, direct query access to the trainer for Inventor-specific modelling questions, and guidance on the Autodesk Inventor Professional (AIP) certification exam pathway. The course is KHDA-aligned — the certificate is recognised by UAE employers for mechanical and product design roles.
Autodesk Inventor is a 3D parametric mechanical design software used to model parts, build assemblies, design sheet metal components, and produce engineering drawings for manufacturing. In the UAE, it is used by mechanical engineers in oil & gas companies (ADNOC, DEWA), industrial manufacturers in JAFZA and Dubai Industrial City, defence supply chains, and product design firms. It integrates with AutoCAD and Vault within the Autodesk ecosystem, making it the standard 3D CAD tool for Autodesk-based engineering teams.
Both are professional parametric 3D CAD tools for mechanical design, and their core modelling capabilities are comparable. Inventor is part of the Autodesk ecosystem — it integrates tightly with AutoCAD, Revit, Vault, and Fusion 360 — making it the natural choice for engineering teams already using Autodesk software. SolidWorks (by Dassault Systèmes) has a wider global user base and a larger third-party add-on market. In Dubai, Inventor is more prevalent in oil & gas and ADNOC-linked supply chains, while SolidWorks is common in product manufacturing and consumer goods sectors.
No prior Inventor or 3D CAD experience is required. The course starts from 2D sketching fundamentals and builds through 3D modelling to assemblies and drawings. A background in mechanical engineering, product design, or industrial engineering is helpful — understanding parts, assemblies, and engineering drawings conceptually — but formal 3D CAD experience is not a prerequisite. Engineers with AutoCAD 2D backgrounds transition into Inventor very effectively through this course.
Both are Autodesk products for 3D mechanical design. Fusion 360 is cloud-based and includes integrated CAM, simulation, electronics, and generative design in a single subscription — it suits product designers and small engineering teams. Inventor is a desktop-first, file-based system optimised for large, complex mechanical assemblies, detailed engineering drawings, and enterprise-scale product development workflows. In UAE manufacturing and oil & gas environments, Inventor is the professional standard for design engineers; Fusion 360 is more common in product development startups and prototyping labs.
Based on Glassdoor and PayScale UAE salary data (2024–2026), mechanical design engineers in Dubai with Autodesk Inventor proficiency earn AED 5,000–8,000 per month at junior level, AED 8,000–14,000 at mid-level, and AED 14,000–22,000 at senior level. Engineers in oil & gas companies or ADNOC-linked contractors with lead design responsibilities typically earn AED 20,000–30,000 per month. Freelance CAD/design consultants command AED 4,000–10,000 per project.
