Robot / Inventor

is anyone using this combination?
I saw that there is an extension while I wandered around Autodesk but now i can not find it... will this work in trial version?

Actually this functionality works in Inventor. There is Frame Analysis module which simulates steel frames basing on Robot calculation engine. The simulation supports basic static loads, displacement, stresses and modal analysis. The steel frame can be also exporteded to Robot rtd file for further analysis and design.

thanks, I knew it was possible to do the frame analysis inside inventor but was not sure of the route to Robot.... I was trying to do it with the trial version of Inventor LT so I will get the full version trial and try again...
