Is there a way that I can add helicoil tap info to the thread size spreadsheet so that I can use the data within the hole command and place helicoil-tapped holes into my models? I need some way to automatically flow the helicoil tap info into the drawing via a hole note.

My colleague installed IV2013. He has excel 2010 installed in his PC also. However he cannot create thread hole (thread option is grey out).

Could not find file C:Program FilesAutodeskInventor 2013Design DataXLS13XLSen-USThread.xls containing thread data.
why I can't export the "Distance 1" attribute out of thsi drawing using the ATTOUT command. I need to build a series of constrained drawings using Dynamic blocks so I can send info from an Excel spreadsheet back and forth bewteen a drawing. I think I'll have to buy a 3rd party utility for that but for now, how to simply get the info out of ACAD and into Excel thsat would be a great start.

The thread is M26x2.0
I can't seem to find any information for me to simply plug in the values into the .xls, so I am thinking that I have to crunch some numbers. which is fine. I just want to make sure that this image below is the correct the reference for this task.
using the pitch, I should be able to calculate all my min and max values, but the xls has class column and a tap drill column, how would I determine these values??

You can organize a multi-threaded work with data through Inventor API? For example, there is a assembly and I need the first part of assembling a list of items to consider in a data set, the second part of the list - in the second data set, the third - the third and so on up to N, where N - depends on how many threads can run in the system . Whether these flows are processed and to receive data in parallel? Or go to the consistent implementation of this algorithm will first be processed by the first part, and only after it will start the second ...?

I am having a terrible time getting the thread modeler to work correctly for an M16x 1.5 thread. I have tried multiple approaches to get the correct thread dimensions output.These are the steps I take:
1) Create hole (I've used both major and minor thread diameters,16mm and 14.376mm)
2) Apply Inventor threads (M16 x 1.5)
3) Select threads from tree using the Add-in thread modeler "Controller"
4) Analyze dimensions finding both cases yield the wrong dimensions.
This add-in would be very useful and a great time saver if it would work correctly.

A reboot of the computer did not work.
The Edit via spreadsheet option does not work, it will not call up Excel, although it believes that it does. The computer is running Win7 Ultimate sp 1 64, Office Home and Business 2010 sp1 32, Inventor 2012 sp2. The software (windows, office) is up to date, I have done the registry edit that other sites have mentioned.
I will bring up an .ipt, right click on Table, click on Edit via spreadsheet. I will get a circle for a cursor for a moment as if it were processing, then nothing. I right click on it again, and just get the How To option, so it believes Excel is open when it is not.
I have just inherited a project where I have been asked to supply our purchaser with a list of non-stocked fixings.
OK so far, i hear you ponder, but the designer for reasons of speed (his words) didn't add the fixings to the assmbly!
Is there any way to list all tapped hole features to an excel spread sheet so that i could then just sort and count and then be able to hilite the specific parts in inventor to find the length?
The prospect of looking at each individual part for tapped holes fills me with dread (shudder).

Trying to figure out the best method to insert an IDW into an Excel spreadsheet without sacrificing quality. I have tried several methods to go straight from Inventor(2012) to Excel(2010) using print PDF at press quality, export JPEG, and even the snipping tool as a last ditch effort all of which inevitably loose all line quality when inserted to Excel.
I have only had success bringing a PDF from Inventor into Adobe InDesign where I am able to mimic the design of my Excel spreadsheet and create an additional PDF to include with the Excel document. It seems like there would be an easier way for Inventor and Excel to work together without sacrificing quality or adding additional steps.
I am trying to export some data from my BOM. I require the part names, quantities and lengths.

We are using inventor 2012 at my school and have recently purchased a makerbot 3D printer abd having lots of fun. However i recently created a model that has an M40 Thread as part of the model. However when i try to 3D print it, it doesn't recognise the thread and it isn't printed. I see the thread on the ipt but once it is saved as an stl it seems to disappear.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to use a multi-value custom iProperty 'item_finish' in the part or assembly model to drive an iLogic rule.
'item_finish' would be 1-24 from the list.
The part file would have an embedded spreadsheet with column A corresponding to the 'item_finish'.
The spreadsheet would have column B containg long text descriptions of the finish process.
The ilogic rule must take the 'item_finish' number, find the corresponding row and then return the B column cell text to a user parameter 'defined_finish'.
The 'defined_finish' parameter can be called in a sketched symbol to describe the finish.
It appears this is all possible, but I cannot find enough information describing the snipped code requiremnets to accomplish the goal.
Im struggeling with creating a code that opens a certain Excel spreadsheet and retrieves / inserts info.
the spreadsheet is a list containing part numbers for purchased components, therefore the list must be filled with information from iproperty. But it has to be where the next available number is. i had this working in iLogic, but have to move it to VBA for better use. the code that worked in iLogic is this one.:

I am working on a gearbox design that requires multiple iterations on the shaft dimensins and other parts, so linking the dimiensinos to a spreadsheet would make this easier. However, I'm using the design accelerator for the shaft and other components and I cannot find any information on how to connect the dimensions I enter in that design accelerator to a speadsheet.
I know how to link to a spreadsheet for a regular component, but haven't used that much.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen working in the drawing environment it is easy to accidantially snap the dimension to a thread symbol (the arc around the hole), instead of the actual hole.
I don't think need dimensions to snap to these symbols.
In the drawing, i annotate a thread. the automatic text for thread depth is always, as far as i see, incorrect, for example if the thread depth is 50 it writes, i don't remeber, but something like 250.
Maybe it has to do with the font, altough i doubt. i am in israel, and the quantity of threads, also an automatic text, is written backwards, for example 4x instead of x4.
I use the following code to get the information if a thread is right or left handed from an outer thread:
'Gewinderichtung Gewinde1If Feature.InventorFeature("Bohrung1").HoleInfo.RightHanded = True ThenGewinde1_Richtung = "RH"'Else If Feature.InventorFeature("Bohrung1").HoleInfo.RightHanded = False Then'Gewinde1_Richtung = "LH"'ElseEnd If
Now I also need to get this information from a hole feature but I was not able to adapt the code correctly. The error I get says that "HoleInfo" for the type "HoleF eature" was not found.
