All I need to do is merge a circular face to a flat face, so both faces become one continuous face. Is this possible at all?
I have a attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Face 1 needs to be merged with face 2. This is so if I constrain anything to that face it will constrain to the entire face and not either the circular face OR the flat face.
There is any option to merge bottom face of pad eye and pipe curved face... Something like
1. Extrude face to a surface or
2. like notch option available in frame generator ?
N:B - pad eye is made by extrusion and pipe made by frame generator.
Using a sketch, i've made a sheet metal face with a 1/4" thickness.
When i select "create flat pattern", inventor only uses a very small portion of the part, and the rest disappears.
Inventor doesn't prompt any windows or generate an error message of any kind. How can i include everything in my flat pattern?
How i could hatch an non-flat face of a 3D solid. I'm trying to export the object as ACIS and import it in Hypermesh, in order to process it and make some pressure loading studies. The problem is that if one face of the object is not hatched or represented by a wireframe, the respective face won't be imported with the rest of the object in Hypermesh(applying materials doesn't work).

Problem is, the split face command doesn't seem to appear in weldments. I want to make the holes to be plugged as a weld preparation. Am I just missing something here, or is IV so backward that a common weld can only be achieved when not working with a weldment?

I have a script which saves the flat pattern from a sheet metal part as a dxf file. But we also have standard part files that we save a face as a flat pattern. So I'm looking to be able to select a face then run a script to save the selected face as a flat pattern in a dxf file.

I have a face plate with strokes on it to represent pressure increments.I cannot get the numbers onto the face plate.On the large stroke it starts at 0 and goes to 9 .. How do i add the numbers. Also i used extrusions for the increment strokes with circular patterns and mirror features.Is this how it should be modeled?

How can I add a material thickness to a face trimmed from IGES file?
I have a surface imported from IGES file, then trimmed to a single face in IV that I would like to materialize.
I tried times for thickness, but IV doesn't like it.
Neither can I apply Shell for part, nor thickness adding from Sheet metal.
It is a 3D Lofted surface, very simple single one.

Here is what I think it should be done, my proble is that the oWork (the workplane I just created remains null) and the whole project crashes.
private Inventor.Application mApp = null;.....if (((mApp.ActiveDocument != null))){

What I'm doing is preparing a model for FEA, and I want to split some faces for where the nuts meet a surface. So far I've only been able to do this by repeatedly making a sketch and then splitting around each hole. Is it possible to do several splits from one drawing or to pattern the split? (I've attempted both, but failed hard).
Splitting a surface 5 times is slow, but essentially fine. Doing it this way when I have more bolt holes though is a chore.
I have a .Sat file I've brought into Inventor. The problem is that, as you can see from the attached zebra analysis, the faces are smooth and flush but I still have several unnecessary isolines. How can I get rid of them and I don't mean changing the view to have lines off I mean actually sealing the faces such that they erase the seam.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm working with Autodesk Inventor 2009. I have several parts colored in gray, black and red.
The grey color is the basic part color/material.The black color is feature color styles.The red color is face color styles. I need to change all the face color styles (red) to the original part color/material (gray/default). I can do this by right-clicking on a surface > properties > face properties.
My problem is that I have a lot of surfaces (mostly due to fillets). I can choose multiple ones with ctrl + click, but even that would take forever.
Is there an easier way to change all the face colors at once?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am well versed with the FEA system, however I do not see any way to get total pressure or load on a face. I know the info is there, the results let me probe points on the face, I just cannot find a way to get the total.
I have attached an image that illustrates the situation.
I will even dive into iLogic again if it is possible to achieve my goal there.
