AutoCAD Inventor :: Extract Rev Of A Model (part Or Assembly) From Drawing

Dec 7, 2012

I'm trying to extract the Rev of a model (part or assembly) from a drawing.  Since Inventor has independent revs for the model and idw I am trying to drill down and put the rev from the model referenced.  I got it to work for ipts and many iams using:

Dim oModelDoc As Document
Set oModelDoc = oDocument.Sheets(1).DrawingViews(1).ReferencedDocumentDescriptor.ReferencedDocument

The problem I have is when the drawing only references an ipn presentation file.  The ipn ALSO has it's own independant rev!  I'm trying access the model the ipn references but cannot get it to work.

BTW, I do know about the ability to sync idw and ipt properties.  I have enable it for our template but we have a lot of legacy drawings that don't have this option selected.  I also haven't tested that method with an drawing that only references an ipn.

Code is below with offending section in bold:

' Find model (part or assembly) referenced by drawing if active document is a drawing
If oDocument.DocumentType = kDrawingDocumentObject Then
Dim oModelDoc As Document
Set oModelDoc = oDocument.Sheets(1).DrawingViews(1).ReferencedDocumentDescriptor.ReferencedDocument

[Code]....

AutoCAD Inventor :: Restore Link Between Part / Assembly And Drawing

AutoCAD Inventor :: Part List In Assembly Drawing Does Not Automatically Updates

Apr 1, 2013

I have a Part List in the assembly drawing.

This list has Renumber Items activated.

All renumbered items become in blue cells in Part List properties table.

All added or altered after that Part Properties are not shown in this Part List.

For instance if I would add or change some Description, Comments or other properties to some parts which are in “blue” cells those will be not updated in neither auto nor any manual way.

So far I should delete and create the table again to see new added properties.

The question is: Is there are any other more simple ways to update the Part List table without recreating it from scratch?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Pass Properties From Assembly To Derive Part To IDW Drawing

Aug 10, 2012

I am using inventor 2013, and I have some model and like the word say they are model that i will use as derive parts to machined or change depending on the model. then I make the IDW drawing from the derived part.

Most os this models are assemblies. what i want is to pass the model number to my IDW drawing of the derived, so i can see from which model the part is derived.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Matching Title Block In Part Drawings To Assembly Drawing?

Dec 5, 2013

I do a lot of work where I start with a full assembly drawing, then make more drawings for the individual parts. Is there a way to link the title block parameters in the part drawings to the title block in the full assembly drawing? The only way I found was to link the parts together and then grab the info for the drawings off of the parts, but if I'm implementing this in a template used by others I want them to still be able to just fill in the blank on the assembly drawing to make it work.

I was able to get iProperties to show parameter buttons, but I haven't seen any way to link to other files or anything like that.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Get Parts List In Assembly Drawing To Fill Part Number Column?

Nov 19, 2011

I'm using Autodesk Inventor 2012 SP1 64 Bit on a Windows 7 machine without vault.

I seem to be missing something. I cannot get the parts list in assembly drawing to fill the part number column. See the image below.

The BOM has the part number field filled out as shown below. Is there someway that I need to map the iProperty to the part number column in parts list?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Simplified Part - Assembly Won't Merge Into One Seamless Part

Dec 11, 2013

I would like to simplify this assembly into one seamless part for FEM calculation:The assembly consists out of parts that, in reality, will be welded together. Due to their form, there is no way to place them exactly onto each other, therefore there are slight gaps between the parts:

Now when I try to merge the assembly into one part via "simplify" --> "create simplified part" and choose "single solid body with seams between planar faces merged", Inventor does not fill these gaps (even though it displays only one part in the bottom right corner of my window). Unfortunately, the remaining gaps brings "contact" problems in the FEM simulation.

how to close the gaps and really merge the assembly into one part?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can Part Make Alterations To Other Part When Inserting In Assembly

Mar 29, 2012

I have a part that has protrusions. When i mate that part up to another part that second part needs to have cutouts/holes to receive those protrusions.

i mainly use it in sheetmetal parts. and use the rectangular protrusions on de contour to mate up with corresponding cutouts in the other sheet. this works with positioning and also makes for a nice weld spot/area.

But also for making holes to accommodate a mold pin used in custom punch dies. I want the intervening part to receive a corresponding (propperly tolleranced) hole automatically. Much like a bolted connection does.

same for parts like circlips. i want them to automatically generate the seat in the part it's mated to. Rather than using the axle generator.

Ofcourse one can place the parts and do an in assembly interpart projection and go from there, but i want the part to generate the (predifined) modification to the other part. It would save time and also reduces problems as the parts are moved about or even removed.

AutoCAD Inventor :: CoG Needed For Each Sub Assembly In A 2 Part Assembly On An IDW

Oct 3, 2013

I have a two part duct fire damper assembly. The IDW has the combined two part assembly, which I know how to turn the CoG on, so that it can be dimensioned. The problem is each piece will more than likely be hoisted separately so I would like to show the CoG for each piece, not the combined master assy.is there a way to do this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Of Part Made From Driven Part

Oct 4, 2012

To create my new  part, i used the deriven part of another part, and used only ‘Body as work surface’ before inserting in my new part.

When I create the drawing of my new part, why is it that I still see all the ‘Body work surfaces’ of the direven part?

When I make it on my other computer  I dont see it... so it is surely an option…

AutoCAD Inventor :: Replace Assembly With Part

Oct 6, 2012

I am capturing a book-case design that I made long ago into Intentor.  I am almost finished, and I want to produce .dwg files and a bill of materials of parts that can be held.

For various reasons, almost all the items in the existing design are assemblies, and the underlying parts correspond more or less to half of physical parts that are contained inside a repeating cell.  I will almost certainly continue using this approach.

A simplified design that shows this is at [URL]..... in the file Display.iam

I created the file Slat.ipt by using derive (Slat.iam).

If I replace the Slat assemblies with the file Slat.ipt, the bill of materials will show parts that correspond to physical parts that I can hold in my hand, or list on an invoice.  I can do this with many, many mouse operations.

To make this modification quickly, I attempted to do Component -> replace on the Slat assembly.  I use this operation a lot to replace one version of an assembly with another.  When I do it with a .ipt file, the system pauses for some tens of seconds, then crashes.

A brute force work around is to use the mouse to do the replacement, essentially rebuilding the entire project in place.

Normally you start with new models/assemblies/and drawings when you use the templates the naming by default  is part1.ipt, assembly1.iam,  drawing1.idw

I am currently at part431.ipt and assemby57.iam

I am concerned I may eventually reach part1000.ipt  LOL
