AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Animation Of Assembly Simply Rotating In 3D Space

Sep 7, 2012

I am fairly new at animation. If I want to simply create an animation of an assembly just simply rotating in 3D space which I then can import in Showcase for a presentation, how would I do this in Inventor?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Engine Assembly - Crank Shaft Turns Different Direction?

Apr 27, 2012

I create a engine assembly and used "Drive Constrain" to rotate the crank shaft. The animation shows the crank shaft turns continuously in one direction. However, when I animate the constrain in Inventor Studio, the crank shaft turned in two different directions (see the vide file attached).

May I know why the crank shaft turns different direction?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Animation Of Assembly

Feb 17, 2012

Im having trouble animating an assembly i made. It is a twin cylinder foot pump for car tyres, nothing special. When i try and animate it i have trouble getting the pump to move. When trying to animate constraints it doesn't like it and parts move about all over the place. I've also tried animating parts and this doesn't work either.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Recording A Drive Constraint Animation In Assembly

Jun 17, 2011

When I record an animation in .avi using the Drive Constraint command here's what pops :

-The codec you selected to compress this AVI video stream cannot handle the current screen color depth and/or the graphics frame size. Please try another codec.

-Then I press OK and it records but the AVI file is empty and no video is watchable.

What can I do?

I'm using Autodesk Inventor 2012 ans a windows 7 64bit brand new computer with Nvidia graphic card.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Studio Assembly Animation - Part Parameter

Nov 8, 2013

I have an assembly inside of Inventor Studio.  One of the parts inside of the assembly has a parameter that I would like to animate. When I select the "Parameters" function within the "Animate" tab on the ribbon, I get an error:

"There are no favorite parameters defined."

This worked fine when I tried the same thing with only the part inside of Inventor Studio, but not when the part is included inside of an assembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Manual Animation Of Ratchet And Pawl Mechanisms In Assembly Files?

Apr 26, 2004

problem when manually animating a model ratchet and pawl mechanism in an assembly file. One can get the pawl to track the ratchet wheel surface OK but there seems to be nothing to stop the ratchet wheel going in both directions, contrary to real life experience. I have used transitional constraints to link pawl surfaces with ratchet wheel surfaces but there seems to be no drive constraint which will operate in this circumstance.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Create DWG From Assembly

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Parts In Assembly

Oct 31, 2013

When creating a new part in an assembly and I select a face of an existing component, how does Inventor determine the orientation and origin of that new part?   I understand how Inventor works when I select the plane/origin of a part or pick out in space in the assembly.But the placement based on the face of an existing component seems random..

I normally do not like creating parts inside of an assembly but I was trying some new workflows.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create BOM For Top Level Assembly

Jun 20, 2013

I am using IV 2010. I have an assembly that is made up of subassemblies and individual parts.  Some of the subassemblies share the same parts.  I would like to know when I create the BOM for the top level assembly if it can show parts only with no assemblies.  I want to get the BOM to combine like parts from all subassemblies in one list. I have tried to use the part only option and it still puts subassemblies in the BOM and breaks the parts out per subassembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create An Assembly With Representation

Oct 20, 2011

I am trying to create an assembly with different representation. let me take a small example and explain. I am trying to create an assembly with say 2part. 1. A circular base plate of 6in dia (An assembly by itself in my case). 2. A plate on top of that say 4in,3in, 4,5in. 

in one representation I want to have the base plate and 4in plate on top with say 0.2in holes going all the way through on 1in bore circle. 

In another representation I want to use the same base plate with 3in plate on top with 0.2 in holes on 1.5in bore circle. When I am creating an extrusion in one representation view it is still showing on the other representation too.

I want to know if there is a way to turn off the feature (representation wise) so that when i turn on the 4in plate i can see the 4in holes and when i turn on 3in plate i can see the 3in holes.

I don't want to have multiple ipts for the base plate as i am dealing with an assembly for the base plate. the only difference is the locations of the holes for different top plate. I want to create just one top level assembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Using Assembly To Create A Part

Nov 3, 2013

I'm trying to design a linear bearing that is composed of a billet of material to which six ball bearings are bolted. I was able to create a part representing the ball bearing from the manufacturer's dimensions. I then modeled a lock washer as a part, then an assembly consisting of a ball bearing and a lock washer. I then created an assembly from that assembly, with six of these ball bearing/lock washer assemblies in the desired orientations.

Now that I have the ball bearings oriented in space the way I need them, I need to model the billet to which they will all mount. I did things in this order because the ball bearings are metric, yet the rest of my design is in imperial units, and it just seemed easier to orient the bearings (which will interface with yet another assembly that I have yet to design) first.

I'd like to create my billet using the assembly as a reference. The assembly will tell me where I need holes in the billet to mount the bearings, where I need to cut out material for clearances, etc. I can't figure out how (or if) I can import my assembly into my part file, or what other tools are available to accomplish this task.

I'm attempting to model something similar to this. I've got the six bearings oriented in space, now I need to make the block to which they mount.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Exploded View Of Assembly

Feb 19, 2013

I need to create an exploded view of an assembly to show how it's supposed to be put together.  "Hey, why not use the slick presentation feature in Inventor?  I've already got the model!"  It's not working out to be that slick.

Outlined in red, is the "wrong" trail that Inventor put in by default.  I added the highlighted trail, which is what I want and reflects how things actually go together.  How do I get rid of the one I don't want?  Hide turns off both of them.  Delete deletes the tweak.  All I've found was a workaround where I hide the line in the drawing.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Subassembly From General Assembly?

Jan 3, 2014

I created a general assembly (GA) and placed several parts and assemblies. After I realized there are too many parts and assemblies in the GA to reasonably place on a drawing. Now I want to remove some parts and create sub-assemblies. Is there an easy proceedure to select some parts in the GA and insert them into a new sub-assembly and (hopefully) keep the constraints intact?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Assembly That Can Be Adjusted For Each Instance?

Jul 29, 2013

I want to create some modules for a platform deck. The modules are made of C5x6.7 channels in one direction, L2x2x3/16 angle stiffeners in the other direction, and 3/16" deck plate on top.

My "drivable" parameters will be length and width.

The modules will all be different sizes, so I need to be able to have every instance of the assembly be different.

The workflow I was attempting to do before I got stuck was this:

1. Create a skeleton part (just a sketch) with Length and Width parameters.

2. Insert in an assembly and use frame generator to build the structural shapes (channels and angles)

3. Insert another part (the 3/16" plate) that can reference the length and width and adjust to be the correct module size.

Is there a way to make parts in an assembly all follow the same parameters? More importantly, can each instance of this assembly show up differently and be adjustable when I place these modules in my main assembly?

I don't know much about iParts - but it looks like an iPart lets you choose from predefined dimensions - I want something that I can custom input any size I need.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create / Edit Sketch In Assembly

Mar 20, 2012

I created an assembly of parts and then converted my assembly to a weldment. I then realized that I need to create a sketch and make an edit to my assembly. The sketch command is greyed out however. I did some trouble shooting and realized that once I converted it, it no longer allows me to make edits. Is there anyway I can get around this? do I now have to re-create the entire assembly to make this edit at the assembly level? If so this would really suck since it is a rather large assembly. I see saving as a new IAM doesn't work as well.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create New FeatureBasedPattern Within Assembly Document

Dec 6, 2013

if there is any way to create a new 'FeatureBasedPattern' within an assembly document. I have 2 assembly occurences - parts. In the Part1 i created a RectangularPattern of workpoints. The Part2 is going to be used in the new pattern. I tried the following VBA code, but it doesn't work.

Dim oPart1 As ComponentOccurrence
Set oPart1 = oAssDef.Occurences.Item(1)
Dim oPart2 As ComponentOccurrence
Set oPart2 = oAssDef.Occurences.Item(2)
Dim oTG As TransientObjects
Set oTG = ThisApplication.TransientObjects
[code]...

The Call function breaks with: "Invalide procedure call or argument". I also tried "Set oAssemblyPattern = oAssDef.OccurencePatterns.etc...." instead of Call function, but with the same result. Same error for declaration change of "oAssemblyPattern" to "FeatureBasedOccurrencePatternProxy".

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Create Assembly Constraints

Dec 30, 2013

Im after programmatically mating 2 components together in an assembly. My stages are as follows:

1)Create New Assembly

2)Add .ipt's

3) One-by-one, mate all the parts together (each part has a plane named "WPStart" and "WPEnd". In each part im after the WPStart being flush mated with the WPEnd of the 2nd part - see image attached. In addition I would like to mate al the XZ planes in each of the parts fluch together and likewize the YZ planes.

3) Mate the parts together

Dim FlushConst As FlushConstraint

FlushConst.AffectedOccurrenceOne = oAssyDoc.ComponentDefinition.Occurrence.Item(1).Workplanes.ItemByName("WPStart") <--------

FlushConst.AffectedOccurrenceTwo = oAssyDoc.ComponentDefinition.Occurrence.Item(2).Workplanes.ItemByName("WPEnd")  <--------
