AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Mold Design / Create Failed
Sep 25, 2012Starting a new Mold Design. When I try to place my part, I get an error message that says... "Errors occurred during create. Plastic part: Create Failed."
How do I determine what the problem is with my part I'm trying to bring in? This was a part that was brought in from a .step file, then saved it as a .ipt. No problems that I can see with the .ipt, but Inventor Mold does not like it for some reason.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Silhouette Curve Gets Lost In Mold Design
Oct 23, 2012I've created a silhouette curve in the plastic part, and marked it for export.
In mold environment, I need it as startup curve for the runoff surfaces. But whatever I try, it's always switching back to being not used.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Mold Design - Gate Placement And Shape
Dec 20, 2013my problem is that when I go to put in a gate (in this case a fan gate) of the type and shape shown below, I can't do it. It seems like gates have to only be above or below the parting line, rather than right on (and symmetrical about) it, and a fan gate (apparently) must always have a flat bottom.
(This is a snip of the drawing for the actual tool. I have to run some mold flow analysis on it before we authorize cutting steel. I could just model the whole 2-cavity assembly with gates and runners, and then lie to Inventor and tell it that the part actually has a sprue gate ... but I'd prefer to do it the right way.)

it said,
1. there are small gaps between these edges (edge set 1, maximum gaps is 25.16917 mm. edge set 2, maximum gaps is 25.16917mm)
2. runoff surfaces penetrate the porduct (surface 1, surface 2, until surface 6)

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Create Slide For The Mold
Nov 19, 2012How to create a slide for the mold I am designing. I have looked at the tooling tutorials but they are not very useful when it comes to something which doesn't follow the tutorial workflow.
In the case of our product I require that the cavity which has been created to be split down the centre into two halves (essentially the cavity becomes the slides). I have tried a number of methods to achieve this but can't get it right.

Aug 25, 2012Any way to use iLogic to create custom iProperties from the cells in an Excel spreadsheet (both text and numbers) for a .dwg template. The only thing even close has been a user who already knew how to do it and was having a different problem. I am using Inventor 2012 and Excel 2003 and have very little experience with VB. I currently have a family of assemblies, consisting of two parts linked to an Excel spreadsheet to control the various parameters for each variation of the assembly.
I need creating an iLogic rule that will:
Go to a specific tab (I have four different tabs/worksheets) in an Excel spreadsheet.
Make a specfic row of that worksheet the current row based on the part number used to generate the models of the assembly shown in a .dwg.
Use the contents of a cell in that row (text or numeric or a combination of both) to generate a custom iProperty for the .dwg template.
Use the custom iProperties to fill in the title block of the template.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Female Mold From Male For Skateboard?
Jan 25, 2013I spent quite a bit of time modeling up a male sided mold to press skateboards in a vaccum bag. I want to create a female mold from this file, but need to make sure there is a 1/2" off set to account for board thickness. I've looked at derive and mold but since I have zero experience with either command I have spent hours going in circles.
The attached picture is what my mold looks like. Just a big rectangle that is 2" thick with some rounded contours cut on the top.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Mold Using Derive Component Feature
Apr 7, 2012I am attempting to create a packaging mold for an 'item assembly' which I have created in AutoDesk Inventor. To do so, in a new 'mold assembly', I made a solid rectangular prism with the assembly constrained in the middle of it. I then import this new 'mold assembly' through the 'derive component' option into a new part and make Inventor subtract from the prism the shape of the 'item assembly'. This gives me my mold, however I am not sure how I can erase the original 'item assembly' that was placed inside the prism (which is now a mold), for it still remains after the derive component feature has been executed. How I can remove it?

Apr 22, 2012Having just installed PDS Ultimate 2013 on a Vista-64 machine, I notice while viewing the Wiki files, that the installation installed only a Partial Library of Metric Mold Bases. I wish to install ALL Mold Bases, i.e. Imperial, Metric and Meusburger. I followed instruction per "Mold Design Desktop content Libraries for Autodesk Inventor Professional 2012".
I deleted the existing partial metric idcl file and moved the Imperial.idcl, metric.idcl and meusberger.idcl file into the content center libraries folder. The replacement files are named AI_2012 Inventor Mold Imperial, AI_2012 Inventor Mold Metric and AI_2012 Inventor Muesburger.idcl. All three files are dated 2/8/2011.
Now, am I no longer able to query for ANY mold base or associated parts whatsoever!
How do I go about installing the complete set of Mold Bases and get Moldfow to make queries to all three Mold Base Libraries?
AutoCAD 2010 :: Insert Title Block And Annotations With Pictures In Design Using Paperspace Option
Mar 19, 2012I have just finished my design and I wanted to insert a title block and annotations with pictures using the paperspace option. I want to print the design out onto A1 Paper (80000mm x 56000mm) to a 1:100 scale.
What I want to know is what is the dashed line, how do I make the paperspace A1 size and a 1:100 scale, as well as wanting to know how to make the title block and add annotations to the design.
One problem I am facing is that any line I do create comes out bold as well as when I zoom into the drawing itself every line is bold. Why is this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: How Long For Part Fill / Mold Fill Analysis
Sep 7, 2013Okay, so it's been a while since I've done one of these, and I haven't done one on 2014 at all yet.
I've got a fairly simple part, it's about 6" long x 3" wide, less than 3/8" thick, without a whole lot of complex geometry to work with. I've built up my whole mold for it, and that went okay, but the fill analysis seems like it's taking forever. Like hours. It gets to the "Fill" stage, gets just a sliver of green on the progress bar, and then sits.
Last time I tried this was on my workstation at the office, using 2013. It didn't take nearly this long, and the part was much larger and far more complex, with a significantly slower computer.
Is something broken with this in 2014? I guess I can just let it run overnight, see what happens in the morning ...
