Based on the material and process selection, and end-of-life choices, Eco Materials Adviser calculates a range of environmental impact measures that can be used to assess the product's impact, and to compare and optimize alternative choices. The Add-In is available in the Part and Assembly environments, and is loaded automatically at Autodesk Inventor start-up. When you make material or process choices, it calculates the estimated key environmental indicators, such as:.

These environmental indicators can be displayed in the Eco Materials Adviser dashboard, or as a detailed report which can be printed or saved as a PDF. We recommend you use one of the following browser applications to launch the tool successfully: Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, 7, 8, or Mozilla Firefox.
