AutoCAD Inventor :: Use Mean Value For Threaded Hole

Dec 14, 2011

Is there a way to tell Inventor to use the mean value for threaded holes? As it is IV always puts the Minor-min value for the hole size, which is a PITA for any and all CAM software.

The thread data can be extracted in CAM, but the hole size still remains what it's modeled as. I know I can edit the spreadsheet and cheat it, but that isn't exactly the correct way to go about it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: FEA Contacts On Threaded Connections?

Jun 18, 2013

I understand the process of splitting faces and applying a Bonded Contact between the split faces when you have a bolted connection with a nut, but what kind of contacts would you use for say a threaded connection?For example, suppose you have a plate that will be bolted to a mold.  The plate has clearnace holes for said bolts and so that the bolts are threaded into the mold to be lifted.  The plate has a threaded hole for the lifting mechanism (Swivel Hoist Ring).  Finally, the desired load is applied to the Swivel Hoist Ring and the bolts are placed in pre-tension.  I would like to simulate this via FEA but am getting tripped up in the contacts.  Also I am trying to make it as simple and efficient as possible (by eliminating any bolts or other parts that are not needed).  I use INV Pro 2014.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Threaded Hole Interference Check

Jan 13, 2009

When I run an interference check on an assembly, any of the threaded holes that have fasteners in them shows interference. I guess that the problem arises from the document setting "Tapped Hole Diameter" is set to minor.

To solve the problem with the interference, I could either change the modeled size of the hole or change the modeled bolt diameter. Either one causes problems in other places.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Threaded Holes Option Is Unselectable

Apr 21, 2011

I have a part I am trying add a threaded hole to. The option for threaded holes is unselectable. I tried editing the registry as past posts have said, but the "parts" folder doesnt show up in the registry. I have been through every folder in the registry and dont see anything that has to do with threaded holes.

Running Inventor Pro 2012 on Windows XP.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Removing Dual Dimensions For Threaded Holes Only

Jan 4, 2012

We want to use dual dimensions for holes and figured out how to do this by editing the styles.  This works great except for threaded holes the dual dimension is redundant as shown in the picture.  

Is there a way to not have the dual dimension for threaded holes but keep them for other holes?  Having a dual dimentsion for a metric thread or having it printed twice on the drawing is pointless.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotation - Translation Constraint On Threaded Features

Sep 30, 2013

how to make this Clamp Rod to Clamp Base Spacer Turn relationship.

this is from the Clamp Project on this site: Inventor Wizard,  The Clamp Lever is turning or rotating the clamp rod into the Clamp Base Spacer  but I could not simulate the Thread or the Screw motion if that is the term, or the 1 or 1/2 turn of the Clamp Rod to 1 Pitch movement,  plus I can't seem to put the Rod inside the Clamp Base Spacer hole when the Contact Solver is ON, maybe modeling issue on my part.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Threaded Lines From Thread Features In Section Views

Nov 8, 2012

Here is the issue we have found. While sectioning a view of an assembly in idw, the threaded lines of threaded features have a strange behavior depending on the section line used. I have attached a simple example that shows what he have found. Basically, if the section line is straight, threaded features show correctely. Independent of section participation. If the section has segments at different angles, then lines are not appearing.

The first three views have both parts excluded from section participation(Obviously, there isn't any real life need for this, but I did it to just simplify the illustration without adding a bunch extra parts) The base view is the top view or view showing the round shape. For the first example at the bottom, i simply projected the view to the left and made sure "Threaded Features" was selected. Threaded lines show fine.

Second example is the similiar, except the i used a section view instead of the projected view. Both parts are excluded. Section line is straight. Verticle in this example. Doesn't have to vertical as the line is straight.

Next example is similiar to the second, only difference is the section is not straight. You can see the threaded lines do not show. This is the problem we want to solve. How to make the threaded lines display!!!

Last example shows the same section, only this time the component is included in the section participation. And it works.

Any settings to change or a trick to make it work. Otherwise, i think i need to issue a support request with autodesk.

AutoCAD Inventor :: True Value Of Threaded Part Surface Area Automatically?

Apr 26, 2013

In most cases threaded parts are designed without true surface (just cylinder with texture) thus part surface area is calculated wrong (less than it is i real world)).

any automatic way to get true value of threaded surface which is modeled in traditional (simplified) way?

Illustrator :: Creating Threaded Text With Rainbow Paths

Jun 30, 2012

I'm having issues with threaded text. I've created my desired paths for threaded text, essentially a rainbow, that aligns with my package design.  When I create threaded text it behaves wierdly.   The following occurs:
 
1) creating threaded text with my rainbow paths, it creates the paths upside down.  I've figured out how to rememdy this with the path options, but wish it didn't default to upside down.
 
2) My path layers for each row are in decending order, i.e. - would like text to cascade top to bottom;  however, when I start typing, it uses the bottom line first causing my paragraph to read from bottom to top.  This is incredibly frustrating!

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 A Spring Moved

Aug 8, 2012

I can't make a spring moving according to other parts' behaviour. I use Inventor 12. by the way I  sent two photos (scanned by Microsoft Security Essentials-no problem), the spring in the photos was made by design accelerators-as compression spring. I want from spring to move with the other parts but it doesn't. For instance when I pull the blue part down, blue part, and the spring go the into of each other.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Make Assembly Adaptive As Possible

Sep 7, 2012

what kind of work flow I can use to make an assembly adaptive as possible..I need to make a machine fixture that requires cut outs for three parts. The fixture is made from a 8" x 5" x 0.19" thk piece of UHMW. I've made the "blank" and it features the work planes I need to place the three parts that the cut outs are derived from.

At first I just started the assembly and placed the parts where they should be and then used sketched outlines to define the cuts. However, since the parts are there they get "cut" as well.

I was wondering if I could make adaptive sketches linked to these parts and then import THEM into the correct plane. I could then use them to define the cuts.
