AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Mold Design / Create Failed

Sep 25, 2012

Starting a new Mold Design. When I try to place my part, I get an error message that says... "Errors occurred during create. Plastic part: Create Failed."

How do I determine what the problem is with my part I'm trying to bring in?  This was a part that was brought in from a .step file, then saved it as a .ipt.  No problems that I can see with the .ipt, but Inventor Mold does not like it for some reason.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Silhouette Curve Gets Lost In Mold Design

Oct 23, 2012

I've created a silhouette curve in the plastic part, and marked it for export.

In mold environment, I need it as startup curve for the runoff surfaces. But whatever I try, it's always switching back to being not used.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Mold Design - Gate Placement And Shape

Dec 20, 2013

my problem is that when I go to put in a gate (in this case a fan gate) of the type and shape shown below, I can't do it.  It seems like gates have to only be above or below the parting line, rather than right on (and symmetrical about) it, and a fan gate (apparently) must always have a flat bottom. 

(This is a snip of the drawing for the actual tool.  I have to run some mold flow analysis on it before we authorize cutting steel.  I could just model the whole 2-cavity assembly with gates and runners, and then lie to Inventor and tell it that the part actually has a sprue gate ... but I'd prefer to do it the right way.)

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Create Slide For The Mold

Nov 19, 2012

How to create a slide for the mold I am designing. I have looked at the tooling tutorials but they are not very useful when it comes to something which doesn't follow the tutorial workflow.

In the case of our product I require that the cavity which has been created to be split down the centre into two halves (essentially the cavity becomes the slides). I have tried a number of methods to achieve this but can't get it right.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Mold From Derive Command?

last week you drafted a mold for my plug part, but you didn't exmplain the steps I need to follow to create the mold using the derive command. Would you mind posting the steps for myself and other forum readers to follow. I guess my real question is: how do you create a 2 part mold using the derive command?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Query Mold Bases In PDS Ultimate 2013

Apr 22, 2012

Having just installed PDS Ultimate 2013 on a Vista-64 machine, I notice while viewing the Wiki files, that the installation installed only a Partial Library of Metric Mold Bases.  I wish to install ALL Mold Bases, i.e. Imperial, Metric and Meusburger.  I followed instruction per "Mold Design Desktop content Libraries for Autodesk Inventor Professional 2012".

I deleted the existing partial metric idcl file and moved the Imperial.idcl, metric.idcl and meusberger.idcl file into the content center libraries folder.  The replacement files are named AI_2012 Inventor Mold Imperial, AI_2012 Inventor Mold Metric and AI_2012 Inventor Muesburger.idcl.  All three files are dated 2/8/2011.

Now, am I no longer able to query for ANY mold base or associated parts whatsoever!

How do I go about installing the complete set of Mold Bases and get Moldfow to make queries to all three Mold Base Libraries?

AutoCAD 2013 :: VIEWBASE - Inventor Server Failed To Load

Oct 23, 2013

when I try to use the VIEWBASE command to create views from my 3D solids, I always get the message "inventor server failed to load" and the command stops. I am using AutoCAD 2014 with SP1 installed on windows 8 .

In a similar message in the 2010/2011/2012 discussion group: URL....

it is suggested to reinstall the software, but this is not working for me.I have already tried to 'repair', 'reinstall' and completely remove all the software and then reinstalling it, but nothing seems to fix this problem.

Are there any other programs I need to have installed to get this command to work?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Exporting To 3Ds Max Design 2013

Feb 4, 2013

I still can´t import inventor materials to MaxDesign 2013.

Using STEP or DWG files accomplishes this but due to the fact that i use multi body objects the imported geometry is grouped in an awkward manner (multiple occurences of an object are grouped and i can´t ungroup them).

How to export right?

The issue is quite pressing and my posts in the AREA have not been answered yet. Is it an Inventor or a Max issue?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Missing Design View Representation From 2013

Jan 8, 2013

My company have recently upgraded from Inventor 2010 to Inventor 2013, on the whole I like it a lot better but there is one feature I can't find or Autodesk have removed. I have attached an image of what I mean if I haven't explained it very well but on the browser bar there used to be a drop down 'design view representation' that you could change back to 'master' quickly. I found this very useful as I often use the 'visible' tool to hide parts then want to unhide them all at once. Is there another way of doing what I want or does this tool exist hidden away somewhere else?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Female Mold From Male For Skateboard?

Jan 25, 2013

I spent quite a bit of time modeling up a male sided mold to press skateboards in a vaccum bag. I want to create a female mold from this file, but need to make sure there is a 1/2" off set to account for board thickness. I've looked at derive and mold but since I have zero experience with either command I have spent hours going in circles.

The attached picture is what my mold looks like. Just a big rectangle that is 2" thick with some rounded contours cut on the top.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Mold Using Derive Component Feature

Apr 7, 2012

I am attempting to create a packaging mold for an 'item assembly' which I have created in AutoDesk Inventor. To do so, in a new 'mold assembly', I made a solid rectangular prism with the assembly constrained in the middle of it. I then import this new 'mold assembly' through the 'derive component' option into a new part and make Inventor subtract from the prism the shape of the 'item assembly'. This gives me my mold, however I am not sure how I can erase the original 'item assembly' that was placed inside the prism (which is now a mold), for it still remains after the derive component feature has been executed. How I can remove it?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Copy To Clipboard Failed

Feb 17, 2013

Whenever I select some objects in an AUTOCAD drawing and Press Ctrl+C to copy them for taking it to any other file, it gives error "COPY TO CLIPBOARD FAILED." 

However, this error is not for all the files but in some of the files. After much tweaking and researching on my own, I found out that this happens in files in which I have set viewports in LAYOUT. When i delete the entire LAYOUT by right Click + Delete, and then go to MODEL and do Ctrl+C, the copy to clipboard happens in normal way.

Why do I get the error when I have set viewports in LAYOUT ?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How Long For Part Fill / Mold Fill Analysis

Sep 7, 2013

Okay, so it's been a while since I've done one of these, and I haven't done one on 2014 at all yet.

I've got a fairly simple part, it's about 6" long x 3" wide, less than 3/8" thick, without a whole lot of complex geometry to work with.  I've built up my whole mold for it, and that went okay, but the fill analysis seems like it's taking forever.  Like hours.  It gets to the "Fill" stage, gets just a sliver of green on the progress bar, and then sits.

Last time I tried this was on my workstation at the office, using 2013.  It didn't take nearly this long, and the part was much larger and far more complex, with a significantly slower computer.

Is something broken with this in 2014?  I guess I can just let it run overnight, see what happens in the morning ...
