Aug 28, 2013I just was upgraded to Inventor 2014. I've got an assembly that I want to convert into a weldment. The "Convert to Weldment" icon doesn't appear where it used to be in 2013. I cannot find a way to make it pop up. Is it no longer possible to use this button to convert a an assembly into a weldment?

May 31, 2013I have a medium sized assembly that I was working with. I decided I needed to create a weldment, so I stripped the assembly of all subassemblies, individual parts, etc and saved it as a different name. However, Inventor will not allow me to convert it to a weldment. That optoin is greyed out.
The only thing I can think of is I have a base part that I have hidden. It is used to drive the assembly. Perhaps that is causing a problem, but I cannot remove it or all associativity will be lost. I deleted it temporarily to try, but did not save it. The convert to weldment option did not appear after I deleted it.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Replace Components In Weldment Assembly
Mar 25, 2013In past I replaced components in Assemblies with this sub:
Sub testReplacePartInAss()
Call ReplacePartInAss("W:INVENTORTPart1.ipt", "W:INVENTORTPart2.ipt")
End Sub
[Code] .....
But if the assembly is a weldment assembly the line
If oOcc.ReferencedDocumentDescriptor.FullDocumentName = sInAssFilename Then
creates an error '91' that the object is not set.
What has to be changed in this code so that it will work with 'normal' assemblies AND weldment Assemblies too.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Stress Analysis On Weldment Assembly
May 27, 2012My design consists of two steel rails that are welded together on top of a guardrail system. To allow the weld to be added between the steel rails I have converted my assembly file to a weldment.
My question is now I have this converted assembly with it's weld in the design can this still be used to perform stress analysis on ? I am not sure the need for assembly to be converted to allow a weld to be added.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Weldment Assembly - Constraining On Revolved Part
Jan 24, 2013I'm really struggling with constraining a weldment assembly. I've attached a JPG of the Assembly but I cant get the constrains to go where I want them.
Basically this assembly is a wheel with three equally spaced stays welded to a large nut hub. I have constrained the center axis of the wheel to the center axis of the Nut so the wheel and nut will remain aligned.
What I'm struggling with is constraining the three stays to the wheel and to the nut equally spaced around the nut.

Jan 29, 2013I was wondering if there is a way to change the appearance of a face in a weldment assembly environment. I have a weldment which in the machining process a part of weld bead as well as a portion of one of the components is machined down (spot faced) and I need to change the appearance of those face to polished, but it doesn't let me do that?

Sep 18, 2012We have an iLogic assembly with to parts in it. Maybe to cylindrical parts. The iLogic rules should do the following.
1. Start a Rule after open document.
2. This Rule starts a Rule in the first cylindrical component.
3. This Rule ask the user for a diameter.
4. The assembly gives this new parameter value to the second component
5. Then the assembly calls another rule in the second component to change it with the new parameter
Everything is working fine when the following combinations are taking place:
1. I open up the assembly out of vault or from a local drive or an accessible server drive
2. I insert the assembly as sub assembly in another assembly from a local drive or an accessible server drive
It don't work with the following situation:
- I insert the assembly as sub assembly in another assembly out of vault
Then the user becomes the dialog "Choose a diameter" twice.
I don't know why, but I have the idea it has something to do with the functionality of inventor to insert a component more than once. If you insert a component in an assembly Inventor gives you the opportunity to add more than one occurence after each other.
change that behaviour? Maybe a switch to change that inventor "add more than one occurence" behaviour.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Translate Assembly Component Using ILogic / Offset From Parent Assembly Origin
Nov 9, 2011I want to be able to control the location/position of a component in an assembly. This is easy enough through the iProperties/Occurrence tab and then adjust the location of the X,Y, and Z offsets. Is this possible using iLogic? I have been unable to find a function to access via iLogic. Ultimately I am trying to translate a component about an axis not a pattern.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Set Assembly IProperties Using ILogic
Jun 1, 2011I wish to set the properties of an assembly using i Logic. I have the values of the properties in a part that is in the assembly. I wish to pass those values from the part to the assemblies i properties. I tried using the following code, but it gives an error saying it can not find the document "MyAssy.iam"
iProperties.Value("MyAssy.iam", ThisDoc.Path, "Part Number")=AssyNo
I'm not even sure that this is the way to do, but it's the only way I could think of to try.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - How To Sum A Property Of All Sub Assembly
Oct 26, 2012I got here on in my templates, two types of weight - net and gross. I've changed the main property MASS of each PART to be the GROSS weight, so when i have one assembly i always get the total gross weight.
And when i wanna get the NET, I open the BOM, show the proper column with this net weight and then export do XLS to sum all of then..
Now the doubt is, to get the things easier, is there a way to put some code in the assemblies, that could sum all the properties "X" from each part and sub assembly to get the total net weight ?
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Rules In Assembly
Oct 3, 2011I am very new to this whole concept of having ilogic based rules to drive your part design. I have even gotten as far as creating a ipart and having ilogic rules be able to suppress, unsuppress, change values and dimensions using ilogic rules. I now want to be able to use ilogic rules to drive some of the various(yet similiar) assemblies that I create all the time.
For instance, If I have just a flat plate as the base component with a shaft welded to it that varies in length for my assemblies. Since the shaft varies in length, I went ahead and created iparts for all the lengths of the shafts. I can manually change which shaft I want represented in the assembly, but I would like to to know how do I get Ilogic to place the different shafts based on user parameters???
I've looked into component place iparts, but can't seem to get the code to work. The list of iparts tree within the model doesn't pop up in the model tab in the ilogic rule, only the base component.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Same ILogic Part In Same Assembly?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Exporting BOM Of ILogic Assembly
Nov 29, 2010My task consist in exporting a BOM of an iLogic assembly.
Is any way to get an accurate BOM of other LOD other than the master. If so, is it only available in certain Inventor releases?
I am trying to accomplish this through API, but I get error when in different LOD than master. iLogic assembly has some parts suppress thats why we need to create a new BOM.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Driven From Sub Assembly
Jul 1, 2013I have a parent assembly that contains multiple sub assemblies, two of which need to synchronize with each other.In the parent assembly, I have created a user form that controls the sizes and quantities of all the different sub assemblies.
Sub assembly 1 contains a bracket for supporting 4 rows of pipes.Based on the width selected from the main parent assembly, the length of this bracket can vary.
The spacing of the 4 mounting positions is also determined from the length of the bracket.Sub assembly 2 is an assembly containing all the pipes.The pipes are spaced apart to suit the bracket using a component pattern, and it is this distance that I want to control from the parent assembly.This is just one of the basic scripts I've tried.
Pipe_Spacing=Parameter("SubAssembly1:1", "Pipe_Spacing_A")
Parameter("Piping assembly:1", "Pipe_Spacing_B")=Pipe_Spacing
Pipe_Spacing_A is the spacing of the bracket
Pipe_Spacing_B is the component pattern in the piping assembly
Pipe_Spacing is the parameter in the parent assembly to be driven by the bracket parameters.
I have very little iLogic experience & have being learning as I go along with this project.My best guess is that the code can't loop back on itself. On a slightly different note, I have also noticed that the sub assemblies don't update properly.
If I adjust the width to X and regenerate the model, some of the sub assembly updates. To fully update, I have to go back into the user form, change the size to Y & then change it back again to X and then regenerate.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Assembly Constraints Driven By Ilogic?
Apr 4, 2013I want to use I logic to adjust an assembly constraint based on T/F value passed from a master sketch.
I have passed the paramater T/F and/or a user paramater as described in this thread using link (neet trick).. but when the code fires it only works on the true application and not the false.. if i open the rule and then close it the update button becomes available and when updated the false condition updates sucessfully. I have tried just re-running the rule to no avail. It seams that the only way I can get it to triger a false condition is to open the rule... close it and update.
If Parameter("iTrigger0101000") = 1 Thend37_Header1 = -.25 ind34_Header2 = -.25 inElseIf Parameter("iTrigger0101000") = 0 Thend37_Header1 = -.25 ind34_Header2 = 0.0 inEnd If
AutoCAD Inventor :: Counting Parts In Assembly With ILogic
Jan 9, 2014I would like to count all my parts in the main assembly and assign that amount to each part.
Example: Main assembly has: 10 Parts A and 5 Parts B. I would like to run a rule that "sends" that "10" to Part A.ipt and the "5" to Part B.ipt
I would like to assign it to iProperties.Status.Status. I start to understand iLogic more and more but it is nice to get a little boost in the right direction.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Rule Driven Assembly
Apr 23, 2013The setup is: I have a rule which first gets a number of user parameters via input boxes.This rule then runs a number of other rules, using:
iLogicVb.RunRule("Rule 1")iLogicVb.RunRule("Rule 2")iLogicVb.RunRule("Rule 3").Each of these rules control parameters, part/feature/constraint suppression etc. in the top level and subassemblies/parts based on the previously obtained user parameters.
All the rules have the 'Don't run automatically' option selected, so all should only run as intended when I manually run the first rule.When I run the first rule, I enter all the parameters, and the subsequent rules run.The problem is, the suppression states etc. in the subassemblies/parts do not update.
Looking at the parameters dialog box after the rules have run, all user parameters have updated with the new values.If I run the first rule again the subassemblies/parts update correctly.
It appears that the rules that control the suppression states etc. of the subassemblies run using the initial values of the user parameters, i.e. the values as they were before the user input is obtained, rather than the new values.This is confusing me, as the code is structured as follows:
user_parameter_1 = InputBox("User Parameter 1", "Input", "xx")user_parameter_2 = InputBox("User Parameter 2", "Input", "xx")iLogicVb.RunRule("Rule 1")iLogicVb.RunRule("Rule 2")
