The company's designers previously spent only half their time developing new concepts due to the constant need to regenerate existing data.
Inventor's parametric system allows them to reuse the assets they already have and modifies all appropriate parts when designers make a single change.
In addition, Inventor integrates with Land's CAM system Pathtrace, allowing the company's manufacturing department to re-use the same information.
