Nov 26, 2012Is there any way in which the text of a text parameter, which is in the equation column, can be replicated into the nominal value column in the parameters table? I want to reference the value of the parameter in Custom iProperties but it always comes up as blank because it has no value.
I need it to update automatically, e.g not entering the value manually.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Possible To Assign Value Of Parameter As A Result Of Non Linear Equation
Jan 24, 2012I am almost sure this is not possible in AI but I will ask it anyway:
is it possible to assign value of parameter as a result of non linear equation?
for example I would need parameter x to meet the equation
cos^2x+Ax+C=0
where A and C can be other fixed parameters.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Super Ellipse Equation Curve
Dec 11, 2012I'm trying to use the equation curve to draw a super ellipse.The formula I'm trying to translate for inventor is the following.I'm guessing this should be possible using the abs() for the first section and an IF() statement for the second. The problem is Iäm not even getting the abs() to work at all. How to translate this formula?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Why Does Equation Curve Function Not Work
May 10, 2012Trying to do something as simple as y=x^3 (Explicit Mode). Set xmin = 10, xmax = 20 then tried y(x) = :
1in *(x^3) -- no good
(x^3)/1 in -- no good
(x/1 in)^3 -- no good
Error is that "Equation y(x) contains errors. Expected units are length".
The point here is: Why should typing in such a simple equation as y=x^3 be so difficult??? Can't even do (x*x*x)/1 in & make it work.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 3D Sketch Equation Curve - Creating Coil?
Jul 26, 2013I am trying to create a coil which from above, retains equal and thus parallel pitches whilst at the same time adheres to a semi-circular form in the cross section. You can see from the images attached that the first two revolutions are larger than the semi-circle outline.
These are the values I have used:
Cylindrical
r (t): 134.56924424045517662353735770102mm * t * 0.5
q(t): 1 deg * 360 ul * 3.0 ul * t

tmax: 0.916 ul
AutoCAD Inventor :: Variable Pitch Helix By Equation Curve
Jun 20, 2012You can create a variable pitch helix by using the Equation Curve feature introduced in Inventor 2013.
Create a new 3D Sketch. Start the Equation Curve command.
Here are equations that I use to create helical curves. Many other variations exist.
Cartesian coordinates:
x(t) = radius * sin(360 * num_turns * t)
y(t) = radius * cos(360 * num_turns * t)
z(t) = height * t
[Code]....
When you sweep a profile along a helical path, use the plane normal sweep (instead of perpendicular sweep) to orient profiles suitable for coil or spring. In the example below, the sweep path is a constant radius, variable pitch helix.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Equation Driven Curve - Unit Error
Nov 27, 2013I would like to create an equation driven curve with inventor. I have no problems plotting the function in a plotter, however, inventor won't accept my equation. It gives me the error message, saying: "The equation contains unit errors". I'm using the explicit equations.That's the bare equation:
"y=sqr(2)*16.5/2/sqr(pi)*sqr(arccos(1-2*x/50)-(sin(2*arccos(1-2*x/50))/2))"
I modified it, inserting variables which I defined also in inventor, leading to this:
"sqrt(2)*height/2/sqrt(PI)*sqrt(acos(1-2*t/length)-sin(2*acos(1-2*t/length))/2))"
But both equations are not accepted by inventor due to unit errors. In this design, I'm using the metric system, millimeters, so I don't understand why and how I have to redefine this for the equation in order to get it working.

Jul 20, 2012is it possible to have Inventor adjust array elements dependent on the available space.
It should use integer numbers only- as there is room for 25.5 elements it reduces the number of elements to 25.
The array should be be dependent on a measurement to make comparision by eye obsolete, as well as the array is to produce the right number of elements as soon as the space available is measured.

3ds Max Animation :: Map One Parameter To Another Using Curve
Feb 8, 2012The reaction manager is an extremely cumbersome way to map one parameter to another, especially if you want a precisely defined mapping curve.
In Cinema4D (a program I'm learning at the moment) there is a range mapper node that can use a spline as mapping curve to map an input parameter to an output parameter.
Is there a way in Max to map one parameter to another using a precisely defined curve?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Set Parameter For End Value Of Parameter Animation
Dec 19, 2011I got a deadline for my project, but I got a big problem:
"I cannot set the "parameter" for the End Value in Parameter Animate dialog"
For easy understand, let's see a example:
1. I got a part which has two parameters named: "A" and "MaxA"
2. I animate Favorited parameter A.
3. The End Value is MaxA_ (Everything is ok)
4. I finish Studio environment, then I change parameter MaxA_ from 200 mm to 400 mm
5. I turn back to Studio environment, the End Value now is "200 mm" (I want this will be MaxA_, so I can animate the flexible parameter).
show me how to keep the end value will be "MaxA_" after I change parameter?
AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Surface From Equation
Nov 26, 2013I 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.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Equation For Rectangular Pattern
Feb 22, 2012Can an equation be used to calculate equal distances when using the rectangular pattern.Regarding the attached .ipt file i would like to place 25 holes in the X direction with equal gap size between each hole.Also how to calculate the number of holes in the Y direction again with equal distance between each hole.I have not done this before with equations but was thinking that i would need to use the Length x Width in the equation.Do i need to add figures into the Parameters box also?
The attached file with the Hole feature the sketch is not constrained for the purpose of using an equation so i know how far from the start of the part to get equal distances between each hole to the end of the part .

Once the rule is run it only shows the value and not the equation. ie i want it to show Thickness*2 instead of just '12'.

While i know whats going and can see the driven link in the parameters the planned change to 2012 could take some getting used to for users.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Linking (equation) Part To Its Own Assembly
Oct 14, 2011I have a small assembly with the parts. I'm doing an array (pattern) of one of the parts and I tried to do two things without success:
1. Tried to link one of the parts to the assembly itself with the equation tool ,but the software doesn't let me do it and says "...was rejected since it causes a cyclic dependency" - so what?:-) I know and need to do it!
2. After rejected the first choice, I tried to "project geometry" some stuff of the pattern I created in order to try and and make my connection in this way, but then I got a similar rejection: : problem encountered when doing cross part projection"...probably it's because it's from a pattern I'm creating from the part I'm doing this sketch inside?
What Can I do in order to bypass these remarks and make it somehow? Most important, Why can't one "tie" something from a part to its own assembly in which it's located???

AutoCAD Inventor :: Ipart - Standard Parameter Column Change Depending On Custom Parameter Column
Jan 3, 2013I am trying to publish to the CC a guide rail. The vendor of the rail gives me the option of entering the desired length of the rail. After that he gives me the option to choose between the length that I entered and a shorter and longer standard length witch can be delivered faster.
I want to do the same thing with my published part, but I cannot make a key parameter to change depending on the entered custom parameter. I want the user to make the next steps when inserting from the CC: 1- select the size of the rail; 2-select the type of the rail; 3- enter the desired length of the rail; 4- choose between the desired length and the 2 recommended lengths (I need these 3 lengths to be shown)
Is this possible?
