AutoCAD Inventor :: Constrain Cylindrical Component On Uneven Surface

Dec 10, 2012

I'm trying to constrain the green cylinder to move between the red frame. The red cylinder is constrained on the surface of the larger gray cylinder, which moves around the grounded red frame. When the green cylinder goes up hill/down hill the larger gray cylinder is supposed to rotate around its own axis. 

When I choose transitional constraint I'm only able to pick one face on the red frame, and not the whole face. I think it's because the face is not planar, but varies in z-led. 

Neither am I able to use the Contact Solver, it seems like the friction is too high. The green cylinder doesn't slide that well when using Contact Solver.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Calculate Volume With Both Sides Of Uneven Rock Surface In Excavation Pit

Nov 11, 2013

At my job site, they is about 20meter height of uneven rock surface in the excavation pit.

To calculate the volume ,I need to include this uneven rock surface wall.

For doing so,The sharp edge will displays in the cross section.

Because the uneven surface, I cannot create the surface with normal step.The TIn line will joins horizontally,not in vertical direction as is intended.

3ds Max :: Animate Spline Over Rough Terrain Surface

Jun 14, 2012

I am trying to animate a spline or jointed border object over an irregular surface.I want to add particles to the spline in the end to try to simulate a fire burning outward across a terrain.

I tried booleaning out a border and while that works, when I add particles to it, it overwhelms my computer. I tried using shapeMerge but that doesn't quite do what I want either. Itoo's glue plugin conforms an object to the terrain but doesn't allow me to animate it.

Illustrator :: How To Make Uneven (brush Stroke) Edges

Jan 17, 2013

I have a fabulous image of a painter's palette: [URL]
 
I want to show only parts of this image at a time, so that the viewer sees it in increments. However, I want to make the edges look more organic, like brush strokes, so that it looks almost as though the painting is being completed and the viewer gets to see the process.
 
p.s. I'm in CS2, unfortunately, so the bristle brush isn't an options

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Surface From Equation

Nov 26, 2013

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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Visible Behind Surface

Nov 2, 2011

Attached is a test drawing

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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Surface Cut On Part

Apr 5, 2012

I'm trying to make a surface cut on my part.  The part is a round cylindrical shaped cap with a surface geometry going through the center.  I want to make that surface geometry remove some of the cylindrical part by about half the wall thickness.

See the attachment of the picture "cap" for a picture with the surfaces I'm speaking about.  The orange features are surfaces and the grey feature is just a solid cylinder that I want to cut. The vertical, cylindrical surface in orange is where I want the grey cylinder to be cut along the curved orange surface.  Only on the grey area outside of the orange cylindrical surface is to be cut while leaving everything grey on the inside area of the cylindrical surface will remain.

The picture titled "ideal cap" is the look that I'm going for on the picture titled "cap" which I'm trying to perform this cut on.  The picture titled "ideal cap" was made using Pro/E and I'm trying to mimic the same thing in Inventor. How I can do this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Profile Plane Tangential To Conical Surface

Oct 31, 2013

I have the German version of Inventor 2014, so some translations may be different.

I want to project a text on a sketch onto a conical surface. The error message is that the chosen surface wasn't tangential to the profile plane. I found no way to rotate the plane.

How do I project my profile onto the conical surface or How do I make the profile plane tangential to the conical surface?

AutoCad 3D :: Make Curved Surface A Flat Surface?

Oct 19, 2011

If you look in the attached PDF, I have an elliptical wall that also has changes in elevation. call it a compound radius if you will. What I have to do is to make a wall cap to go on top of the wall. I know, sounds fun.....I have the surface on the right of the PDF and i need to figure out how i can take that shape and have it lay flat so that i can cut this shape out on my CNC. i know I can use the FLATSHOT command, but this will not give me the true shape of the board.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Make Single Surface Of Part Transparent So Inside Of Part Is Visible?

Mar 11, 2013

I'm modeling a temperature gauge and would like to have glass over the gauge so the inside is visible. I can easily do this with an assembly, but I'm wanting to do this with a single part. I tried to derive a new part from the assembly, but the transparent part turns solid so nothing inside is visible. Is it possible to do this?

I've include pictures of what I want and what I end up with.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Curved Surface - How To Increase Volume Of Surface At Certain Points Only

Apr 10, 2013

how I can add more volume to curved object surface? Say for example I have a plastic cup.You can think of this as cylinder object ,which was the shelled out using the shell tool and then had its base sealed.

Now at certain parts, I would like to increase the thickness and then blend it the rest of the surface(may be chamfer its edges) .

At certain parts on curved surface I would like to add an extra mm, I think if the surface was flat I would just sketch the shape, then extrude it by few mm and smooth the edges by doing a chamfer

But how can this be done on surface that is curved? Or multi curved for edges?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Ribs On Curved Surface / Trimming To Complex Surface

Feb 28, 2013

I'm designing a press for a skateboard similar to: Rib Press

I have the board modeled: (see attached)

Now what i want to do is generate those ribs as seen in the picture.

I tried creating a block that intersected with the board and tried to split the rib at the surface, but to no avail. I think the issue has something to do with the curve of the board in two directions, but i can't seem to get it right.

if you are having trouble visualizing what i'm asking about, look at this. I want to be able to figure out the exact shape of those center ribs to print and eventually cut out of wood.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Convert Surface To Solid Model / Turn Off Yellow Edges In Surface Model

Mar 4, 2008

We received a surface model from a vendor that I have patched up as best I can, it still has one hole that I can find that I haven't been able to fill. Ideally we would like to have a solid model, but I'm running out of time to get this done and the surface model we have would be good enough for our purposes IF I can get the yellow surface tangent lines to turn off or change their color to black.

I've attached a jpg of the surface model with the yellow lines and uploaded the model here: [URL].....

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Make A Smaller Surface

Jul 26, 2012

I've downloaded a DEM and made a surface from it creating a HUGE file. I only need about an eighth of that area. How can I crop the surface to be a smaller area?  I realize I can create a boundary, but I really don't need all the data outside the boundary.... I want a smaller file so it doesn't have to create one of those *.mms files.

Surely I don't have to export the boundaried area as triangles to a regular ACAD file, then make a surface from those triangles... do I? Not that it's that big of a hassle, but seems like a roundabout way of doing things.

AutoCad 3D :: Make Helical Cut Into Splined Surface?

Jun 19, 2011

I'm trying to create a rather oddly shaped stair stringer. It will have several radii, and direction of curves. The screenshot below isn't exactly what its going to look like - I just drew a quick spline and extruded it into a surface to show what I'm trying to accomplish. I need to "cut" the sufrace to reflect the height of the stringer (will be 16") and to follow its pitch.

AutoCad 2D :: Edges Of Text Appear Very Rough

Aug 26, 2008

I am running 2005 ADT. In certain drawing, but not all the edges of my text appear very rough. It doesn't seem to have much effect on the plotting, but it tears at the eye and is distracting. I think its some kind of variable because it doesn't occur is every drawing.

When I open up an MTEXT editor the text looks correct.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Make Sure Annotated Surface Labels Spot Elevations From 3D Design Drawing

Dec 19, 2013

How can I make sure the annotated surface labels spot elevations from my 3d design drawing which is being xrefed into a new Precise Grading Breakout Sheet plots screened?

The Label Style which I created for the annotated surface label spot elevations has all its properties set to be ByLayer for example its color and lineweight.  The Layer I assigned the Label Style was assigned to a layer with a color and plot style that should plot any object screened.  Color 8 and Plot Style Screened.

What other steps am I missing to assure myself that this Label Style will plot screened in my new Precise Grading Breakout Sheet?

I also made sure that the xref drawing in which this Surface spot elevation has the correct colors and lineweights and Plot Styles in my new Precise Grading Breakout Sheet.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Text Appears Rough / Rugged In Both Model And Layout Space

Jun 25, 2012

I am having difficulty with the text in my drawings. When writing dtext or dimensions on my drawings in modelspace the text appears rough/rugged in both model space and layout space. I am using True Type (Arial) as the font. I've read older posts where people have suggested checking in Properties that the text is really laying down at 0 in the Z plane which it is. Some say using True Type is the problem, but just last week I was doing what seemed to be the same operation and I had no problems at all.
