I need to know the best way to go about making the rosette (the frills around the center of the medallion). Should I fold a long strip of sheet metal repeatedly? Should I make a single frill and use the circular pattern tool to duplicate it?

There are 2 of them, that I what to make only one assembly, and I would like them to stay in same the position as in test1.iam.
How do I do that?
I'm using Inventor 2013 and VB 2010 Express... I can find a part or sub from browser and open it seperately by below
Dim invDocs As AssemblyDocument
invDocs = Form1.inv_App.ActiveDocument
Dim invDocument As Document
Dim Sayac As Integer
Dim oRefDocs As DocumentsEnumerator
oRefDocs = invDocs.AllReferencedDocuments
Dim invDocument2 As Documents
invDocument2 = Form1.inv_App.Documents
For Each invDocument In oRefDocs
If Form1.BaseFilename(invDocument.FullDocumentName).ToUpper = TextAranan.Text Then invDocument2.Open(invDocument.FullDocumentName, True)
Sayac += 1
Next

I need to make a model of saddle surface. The surface is given by equation z = y^2 - x^2, and I must have some thickness - It will be printed on 3D printer.
I have Inventor 2014 and I dont see possibility of making the surface directly in Inventor. Is there any trick for that?
I'm afraid I cannot use solution as stated here Equation-driven surface , because saddle surface looks like this hyperbolic paraboloid .
I tried this solution: I made 3D surface in Matlab, exported it in .stl and opened in Inventor - but this only makes the surface with no thickness. Functions extrude, loft require 2D sketch.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI can't make a spring moving according to other parts' behaviour. I use Inventor 12. by the way I sent two photos (scanned by Microsoft Security Essentials-no problem), the spring in the photos was made by design accelerators-as compression spring. I want from spring to move with the other parts but it doesn't. For instance when I pull the blue part down, blue part, and the spring go the into of each other.

View 4 Replies View Relatedwhat kind of work flow I can use to make an assembly adaptive as possible..I need to make a machine fixture that requires cut outs for three parts. The fixture is made from a 8" x 5" x 0.19" thk piece of UHMW. I've made the "blank" and it features the work planes I need to place the three parts that the cut outs are derived from.
At first I just started the assembly and placed the parts where they should be and then used sketched outlines to define the cuts. However, since the parts are there they get "cut" as well.
I was wondering if I could make adaptive sketches linked to these parts and then import THEM into the correct plane. I could then use them to define the cuts.
I have cut out a spiral from top on a cylinder, now I want to make a nice finish. And cutting with a conical spring profile is the way to do it.

1. Why does my part not show up behind a surface?
2. What is the minimum dimension to make my part appear?
On the drawing I was working on, the part completly behind a surface was showing up until I rotated the view, then it dissapeared, this behaviour is not present in the test idw, the part doesnt appear at all behind the surface.

I was giving an assembly with a lot of piping in it, but the piping wasn't done using the Tube & Pipe. I need to make a drawing of the piping with a BOM. I made an ISO view and turn off the visibility of the parts I didn't need.
My question is if there is way for the BOM to only show the visible parts in my drawings. I know in iAssemblies I can exclude the parts I don't need, but that would take awhile considering there are over a hundred parts in my assembly. I really don't want to redo the piping mainly because of my inexperience with Tube & Pipe.
I cannot get a 'centerline' (symbols panel/centerline) to create. I can use all the others (centerline bisector, centermark and centered pattern) without fail. This first one (with the single line) does not EVER give me the option to 'create' when I am done clicking my points, its always greyed out and I dont know why.
how to make a centerline...select that option, click here, click there, when done right click and 'create'. Doesnt work.
