View 6 RepliesI can obtain the Center of Gravity of a sub-assembly. What are the values with respect to? The origin/root of the whole assembly or the origin of the sub-assembly? How can I obtain the coordinate of the COG of a sub-assembly with respect to its origin or with respect to the whole assembly's origin?
View 9 Replies View RelatedHow do I get the center of gravity to work, by measuring a distance from the origin like Solidworks? I select the “Physical” Tab under the iProperties “Center of Gravity” and it gives me” lbmass”? Also is there a way for it to show on the screen?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a LOD in my assembly to suppress some of the components. In the assembly, it looks like the center of gravity is correct for the LOD. Now I place this assembly in an idw with the LOD active. Now I right-click on the assembly in the idw and choose "Center of Gravity". The center of gravity shown here does not represent the center of gravity for this LOD. The CG shown represents the CG of the master LOD.
Is it possible to get the center of gravity to show on the idw that represent the CG of an LOD?
Structural shape authoring has a parameter mapping for the center of gravity. What values should these be for a C channel where the part origin is at the geometric center and the center of gravity is located along the negative X axis? I checked one of the channels in content center - it had the origin located at the center of gravity and the parameter mapping was the distance to the outer web surface (positive), with the web located in the negative X direction.

When I'm checking in the Iprop., I see the center of gravity coordinates, but it there a way to "see" it (some visual representation)

For some reason it will not let me constrain a part to the center of gravity plains. I would like to constrain lifting lugs to the center of gravity so the model will automatically update itself. Is there anyway to make this work (using ilogic or anything)?
Why would Inventor tease me with showing me the center of gravity plains in an assembly but making them completely useless?
I have created assembly (lets call it main assembly) in which there are 4 other assemblies (lets call them sub assemblies).
Now in the main assembly document i want to display center of gravity of each of the sub assembly.
When i open each of the sub assemblies and turn on center of gravity of each of them, when returning to main assembly view it displays center of gravity of main assembly, not of each of the sub assemblies.
Im asking for this because i want to create a drawing of main assembly and add dimensions of each of the sub assembly centers of gravity and unfortunatly just as in assembly view, when i want to display center of gravity i can do it only for the main assembly not for each of sub assemblies.
I am currently trying to show a comparison of Center of Gravity between two assembly's. One is the original state and the other has counter weight bars. I know how to get the COG to show on my drawings, but both COG locations are the same in my drawings (but different in my assembly) My problem is when I create View Representations and I toggle the Counter Weight bars off, the COG in my drawing still remains in the same location as if they were still on. I know the hard way of accomplishing my task would be to save 2 seperate models (one with Counter Weights and one without). But I would like to take full advantage of the Representation Option.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to apply a load lengthwise on a 2 x 2 x 3/16 angle at the center of gravity using "stress analysis" in inventor pro 2014, but it won't let me apply the load at this point. I know that the load would be floating in the air at the center of gravity, could this be the issue?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to pinpoint the center of gravity on a curved face of an assembly. I can use the c og G command to get the true center of gravity but i would like to incorporate lifting eyes into the finished assembly. Basically I need to know how to find the C of G on a given surface. I have attached the assembly I am working on and added lifting eyes roughly where I would like them. I have tried measuring from the C of G to a face and then creating the lug above the C of G but somehow it doesn't line up.
View 7 Replies View RelatedOk received parts from a customer. It was ALL mesh features.I converted some of them(the mesh features) to Solids. Some would not convert to solids (converted to surfaces).
I need to have the COG show up correctly. Yes, I have a physical COG. I know where it is supposed to be.
I am trying to use this and several other parts (with mixed, Solids, Surfaces, Mesh features), in an assembly AND balance it all thru a common lift point.
How can I correct the COG of the individual parts, so that the assembly is correct.
I have work planes for the corrected COGs, but I am afraid that I will need to calculate the new COG for the assebmly.
I have tried just about everything and the mass properties center point of gravity is coming out incorrect.
I have created a box 300x300x300 with the center of the box at 0,0,0 (for testing the cg) . The result I get is not 0,0,0 one of the values always comes out to be not zero, depending on the orientation of the box. Is this a bug?
Dim cg As Point3d = T.MassProperties.CentroidMsgBox(cg.X & vbCr & cg.Y & vbCr & cg.Z)
Is there a command within AutoCAD2000 to establish the centre of gravity of a solid or solids?
View 7 Replies View RelatedIn the iProperties, in the Mass properties are the coordinates of the center of gravity. i guess they relate to the center point and axes in the main origin folder, right?
How can i show and measure from the genter of gravity symbol in parts and drawings?
I'm trying to build a VBA code in inventor 2010 to export the Center of gravity coordinates (X,Y,Z) from an inventor assembly to an excel sheet.
But I'm not able to get the iproperties for the COG from my assembly.
I have a drawing with 13 layouts for a set of easement documents. They are in TN state plane and if I close and open the drawing the coordinate system in every single viewport on every single layout resets itself centered about the origin (state plan of this part of TN is around (2210437,238922.) so 0,0 is a long way from there.)
This error can be reproduced simply by saving and opening the drawing again but only in this one single drawing. I have never encountered this before in 12 years. I have done it over and over hoping it would not repeat but it happened again and now I have to redo all of my layouts...again. This is costing me a great deal of time. I am running Civil 3d 2013 and am going to move this drawing back to 2012 in the hopes of stopping this bug.
I have audited repeatedly and I purge all of my drawings often.

I have re-installed the content center. we do not use the vault even though i had to install the basic to install the content center see attached for my file settings for the content center.

They included a drawing for Home Space PLanning, Landscaping, etc. where these files or blocks are found in 2013? I want to use some of the sample blocks that I had access to in older versions of AutoCAD.

we have Inventor prof 2012 lisc copy ,now we recd 2013 upgrade copy , as per discusswith local service provider of Autodesk need to uninstall whole 2012 and reload fresh 2013. i copied contenet center folder on other location and reload fresh Inventor 2013.when i installed it it is obserbed that content center libraries don't have standards which contents in Inventor 2012. To open our old projects we need this standards, the procedure to import this content center libraries from 2012 to 2013.

I made the cone ramp and double cone but the cone either goes the wrong way or only moves a few inches in the correct direction and then gets stuck. I’m using 3D Contact Joints and Spatial Joints and Gravity Force.
