AutoCAD Inventor :: Possible To Chamfer Shape
Oct 7, 2011
Is it possible to chamfer shape like this (the white line) so that the chamfer degree and top chamfer length is same all around including the part on top of the slide? My goal is to use 0,75mm chamfer. I get error when I try to do it. URL.....

Is there a way to dimension chamfers like in the second pic below so that the values update. You can do a linear dimension and then alter the text and try and find that dimension in the list, but the chamfer tool works well with two clicks but you only get it with a leader. I would like the same function but with a linear dimension sometimes. It would be good if you could choose it. 45° is probably not a really good example, but the leader version is not always so clear.

I have chamfer going around my part but I need to make it to stop 2mm's before the corner. How is this done?

In Autodesk Inventor 2013. I have a simple cylinder extrusion with a rectangle attached to the cylinder. Drawing file attached(extrusion 1). Whenever I apply a chamfer to one of the straight edges, Inventor generates negative taper on the cylinder wall (if you zoom in with a window, you can clearly see that their are two lines on the cylinder wall where the chamfer edges was applied).
Is there anyway to prevent this from happening? This gives me all sorts of problem in my CAM software because the tool is trying to machine in an area it cannot get to.
As a work around I have to create a new part file with a small gap between the cylinder and the chamfered edges. This keeps the cylinder edges nice and straight with no taper. The work around is attached as well. Since the tool can't go that far into the corner given the radius of the tool, the gap has no affect on me generating code. I have tried many different ways on creating this part with chamfers with no luck. Once the chamfer is generated, it should match the profile of the cylinder.

I'm wondering if there is any way to chamfer a set length along an edge (similar to what can be done with flanges in sheet metal mode), as opposed to the entire length of an edge.

I am trying to place a 5mm chamfer along edge so as it meets the cylinder....i cannot get it to work on this model but on an exact other model i can place a 5mm chamfer...

We commonly weld two half cone sections together to make a complete cone. To show the weld prep i have modeled a chamfer on the cone edges.
When i try and show the chamfer on the drawing using a section I cannot dimension the angle as the surface is viewed as a curve by Inventor.
I have attached a drawing and part file showing the problem and showing the detail I would like (I've shown the detail using a simple sketch).

I wanted to chamfer a poligonal faced part, but had to select the edges one by one.
The Edge Chain buttons were grayed out, why?

Every time I create a chamfer note, I have to edit it, because I don't like '1.5 X 45° ', I like the lower case of '1.5 x 45° '. Only a small detail, maybe, but that's how I prefer it. Can I edit the template somewhere so that this happens automatically?
Similarly, can I edit the hole note so that the tolerance (6H, etc) is not shown for tapped holes?

Been toying with sheet metal stuff here lately. Going from solid modeling to this feels kind of backwards to how you design.
Anyways, I have part (attached). 300° round. So far checks out to how I want. Please look at chamfer #2. It is in the correct location, but it is not letting me do what I want...maybe I havent started this simple peice in the correct fashion.. What I need is the chamfer in the same 'wall' where it is, but I need it 4.97° x 23" long AROUND the part.

What might cause some parts to retain there weld prep chamfers in the part file & other parts don't show the chamfers except in the assembly like an assembly feature?
I noticed that when parts were in a pattern & Weld Prep/chamfered, they retained the chamfer feature in the part.

I want to engrave the text 'TEST' all the way around this clonal object. When I use the emboss tool, selecting the option 'wrap to face,' it gives me an error message that the "face selected is not tangent to the profile plane."
I am using a work plane that is offset from the XY plane. I included a screen shot and the file that I am using (Inv. 2014)

How to set chamfer and Fillet. I have tried but just can not get it to do anything.
I may have maladjusted some other setting. Operator error for sure. I do not need to use these functions for anything else but the 3 shown in the attachment.

Here goes= If i have a rectangle that is 27.125 X 27.5 and i want to chamfer a corner, but i also have a set distance(or the hypotenuse) Which is 22. How can i get it to put that angle in there with out trial & error of drawing a 22" long line on a 45 degree angle and moving it till it fits properly, then trimming off the corners... I have tried all the different commands in chamfer, the best i can do is guess at the distance,which is a crap shoot to me.

Success using AutoCAD's CHAMFER>ANGLE command to chamfer in 3D? Distance/Distance works fine, but I haven't yet figured out how to use the chamfer tool to put a 30 degree chamfer on a cylinder (or any angle for that matter) by specifying a distance and an angle. Seems like it should be simple, but I always give up and end up creating the tapered edge by revolving a polyline that already has the chamfer, or using the TAPER>FACES tool.

We are trying to apply a chamfer / fillet, anywhere betwen 0.5mm - 1.00mm, to the attached ACAD 2004 / ACAD 2012, 3D model, along the edges connectiing from the existing chamfer / fillet, up each side to the top - where you will see there is no chamfer / fillet - (the outside of the cup profile,Attachment 34929 Attachment 34928not the inside of the cup profile).
That resolved the problem, the software struggled a bit with filleting till we tried a smaller degree, then it worked - we thought it would automatically fillet (flow) in / out according to what dims were available.

Why do the Fillet and Chamfer commands sometimes inexplicably require three clicks to execute? At "Select First Object", the first line I select doesn't highlight, and is ignored. The second pick selects the first line to be filleted, the third pick performs the fillet. There's no predictability to when this happens. Does this happen to others?

I am trying to teach myself how to use 3D and when trying to chamfer my objects, the chamfer works, but it leaves the original lines.
I have it set to TRIM under the CHAMFER command. My TRIMMODE is set to 1. I don't know what else to do.

It has chamfers and fillets. When i copy the 3D model, the copy doesn't have any chamfers or fillets .

I am working on someone else's file, using CAD2010..For many lines, Chamfer & Fillet commands do not work, "lines are non coplanar "..In the Properties, all Z = 0
I tried Flatten, nothing changed.

I'm trying to create these rounded divots in a solid. However the only way I know how to get this sort of shape is with a revolved PLINE - which I of course can't use to subtract material from my regular old box.
The shape I want is something like this: (the 2D is a profile of what I want in the end, a divot in a box)

I'm using Max 2008 at work. I'm trying to set a keyboard short cut for Connect (with the dialog box popping up) and the same with Chamfer.
So what I have done so far is: Customize User Interface > Keyboard Tab > Connect (With Dialog) (Poly) and assigned a short cut and saved the UI.
It doesn't work even after restarting max, just wondering if there's anyway around this? Same happens with Chamfer options.

I'm making a pretty easy model where one side of a box needs to be round.When I chamfer the two corner edges it obviously becomes a round end.
But the problem is that this round end isn't the shape of a perfect circle.I included a picture to show my problem.The box has a width of 30mm and the chamfer amount is 15mm.I've put a cylinder on top of it with a radius of 15 to show that the chamfer isn't perfectly round.

I can't select edge loops created using the chamfer tool. For example, add a cube (1 segment in all direction), convert to editable poly and select one edge, chamfer it a little bit to make it rounded, now there's clearly a loop of edges there, but it's not selectable by using the loop selection.
