I need insert a cylinder into inner diameter of a ball bearing, logically it must rotate with the bearing but no, the bearing outer diameter is fixed to a support and works well, but when i insert the cylinder into the ball bearing it's fixed completely and the cylinder rotate into the inner diameter.

I am modelling plain Bearing but i have problem getting holes at an angles. I have attached an image for it.
Holes are located on top side of the bearing.
I have an assembly which contains some content centre tapered roller bearings. When I do a slice of the entire assembly the bearings remain solid. Within the document settings>modelling tab the "Participate in Assembly and Drawing sections" is checked.
How can I get the part to be sliced within the half sliced view like everything else?
I am trying to make a standard sectioned drawing of a shaft with bearings. I understand the rolling elements of the bearings are not to be sectioned. The rest of the bearing, however, must be sectioned. I cannot find a way to make that happen.
The bearing I'm using is from the content center. I can only choose between sectioning the bearing or not section it, I don't have that option anymore when it comes to individuals parts of the bearing.
How to simulate rebound of a ball over inner surface of polyhedral body. (In gravity field). How to get all trajectory for given time interval.
And is it possible to get movie of falling of several balls onto the surface in Inventor Dynamic Simulator?
Within dynamic simulation, I am trying to have a ball follow a track made of (2) rods, I can do it if the rods are straight but I do not know how to properly apply joints to allow the ball to follow the tracks when they are turning. I need to do this within dynamic simulation because I also hope to add a chain and sprockets with a ball holder to bring the ball back up to the top.

This type of valve is very common in the oil and gas industry and it just baffles me that there is nothing there for this type of valve.
I have used Inventor for several years and this has always been an issue.
FEA of a hollow metal ball.
The case is-
1. hollow steel metal ball OD 200mm, ID 190mm
2. Outside surrounding uniform pressure 10 MPa.
3. The ball is floating in a kind of liquid, so the gravity is neglected.
How to run FEA on this ball? How to add fixed constraints.
please see attached....how do i pattern holes all round the ball feature?

Are there any generic flanged ball valves in the content center? I I see the globe and gate valves, but no ball valves.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to model cut produced by a ball end mill taking an arbitrary 3D path. I know how to do this for 2D paths (and this has been discussed a couple of times on this forum), but I have had little to no success extending this to paths in 3D. I've attached an Inventor file that demonstrates what I want to do, it has an sketch that describes the tip of the end mill and the path that I want the center of the tip to trace out.
This seems like something that should be possible using sweep feature, but if it is then I have not found a way to get this to work. The issue is that I have not been able to effectively control the angle of the sweep plane with respect to the path. In reality, the normal of the plane should be equal to the tangent of the path with the z-component zeroed out.
However, if I sweep using the path and the "Path orientation" then it does not zero out the z-component, if I sweep using the path and the "Parallel orientation" it does not take the x&y tangent components, if I sweep using a guide rail or guide surfaces it also does not zero out the z-component.
In fact, the only way I could come up with to accomplish this would be to sweep the path in 2D and then to use a series of bend part features in order to put things into 3D. So far as I can tell this works, but back calculating the 2D curve is so backwards and laborious that I can't imagine using this for anything. In Solidworks this is relatively easy using the sweep solid feature .
When i create a part in inventor, and create a rule for my part list of my drawing. Where do i find the diameter character
PL-5 Ø 300
Curious, I am trying to get numbers 'engraved' (extruded) into a diameter of a dial ring. I was able to create a couple of planes to create the marking lines around the OD, but am unsure how to add numbers and extrude said numbers (in the easiest fashion possible). I need to go from 0 to 90 on the longest marking that starts at 0° and is every 36°.
Also, that being said, with the little I tried and was unhappy with, I created a text box at the 0° marker but the text was in the wrong rotation the marker and rotation box was greyed out. How can I resolve this...or is it even related?

In Cable and Wire harness in AIP is there a way I can extract or dimension abundle diameter that is associative with the model? I was expecting that Ican dimension the diameter sizes in the nailboard drawing.

(see attached pic). I am not sure if it is a style thing, or a template issue, or just a general inventor fault.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI design molds for the rubber industry and I was using Acad 2000; I am just now starting to use inventor. I need to used the ordinate dimensioning although I need the dimension to be given as a diameter and not as a radius. Is there anyway to scale the ordinate dimension automatically as 2:1? This way when I give the prints to the tool room they don't have to manually double every diametrical dimension. The prints that I draw only show half of the mold, there for needing a 2:1 dimension scale.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWe've been having trouble with all our IDW's, whenever we put a dimension or text with the diameter symbol it plots as 'Q'.
Even in print preview it still appears as the diameter symbol, although when actually printed, it comes out as 'Q'. To combat this in the meantime we have firstly been creating PDF's which display the correct diameter symbol and then printing.
i.e Ø30 on IDW prints as Q30 on paper.
We are using Autodesk inventor suite 2009.
How to treat reference diameter dimensions.
If I open up an session of AutoCAD, reference dimensions enclose the diameter symbol in the parenthesis.
Using Inventor, however, the diameter symbol is put outside the parenthesis.
Which is right? It seems silly to make extra work for the user for otherwise identical drawings.
The diameter icon different when you pick up the top line and the third line?
When I used Inventor 2009, I found that problem, but 2012 still the same. Is the inventor design that way or that can be improved?

I have tried to go through the same steps, but I can not select the inside of the rip to built hems and flanges on. I also tried to make the cylinder by sketching 350 degrees of the cylinder instead of creating a rip, This had the same problem.
Why I can't select these edges or how I can work around it?
How can I create a rib that touches a plane and the end of a cylinder? Inventor will not do it since the thickness of the rib does not touch the cylinder (see attachment).

I am trying to edit my drawing template dimension style to always do a diameter (if it is a circle). Right now it defaults to radius and I manually right click and change it. I found all sorts of styles for how it displays the radius and diameter, but didn't find where to set the default.
