AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotating A Sweep
Feb 13, 2013On solidworks, There is an option to rotate the profile along the path as it sweeps. I'm curious if there is anything similar to that ability in Inventor? And if not, if there is a way to create a helix along a curved axis.

Sep 26, 2011I have a part that I am inserting into an assembly, the assembly consists of a 2D AutoCAD Architectural background. I want to align the part, with the background itself, so I just need to turn it 90degrees. When I do a rotate, it keeps rotating it on a 3D axis, including when I use my grip edit, and use a line to align for the new rotation.
How do I quickly rotate a part so that it's not rotating on a 3D axis, it just rotates along the x,y axis?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Two Rotating Objects Interfering
Mar 24, 2013I am right now working on a door with a door handle and a lock.
So far i have gotten the door handle to work more or less.. The only thing that annoys me is that when i rotate the door handle to the limit, it'll reset rather than "lock" and just wont move anymore.. Anyways, that's not my main issue here.
My main issue is that when i mess around with the lock-handle, it will often interfere and pull in the doorhandle, change the location and just act odd..
It is no problem the other way around. I have no problems using the doorhandle without it doing anything to the lock.. I have tried to make more space between the two handles, but it makes no real difference.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotating Part In Assembly
Aug 29, 2013I have an assebly where i have imported parts and other assemblies. Unfortunatly during process of assigning them together they have rotated by various angles.Is it possible to somehow "reset" the rotation of part according to global xyz?

Sep 14, 2012I'm using 2010 and maybe this has been addressed in subsequent versions, i don't know.i've designed parametic platform that I would like to insert into an assembly and have it prompt me for elevation and orientation. Short of VBA code, i'm not sure I can do this. I AM trying to make the process as simple as possible for use by people who will not be overly familiar with Inventor. The easier it can be done, the sooner it can be adopted and more people taught how to actually use it.
I know I can bring it in and constrain it different axes and planes.
I also know that I can insert a piece into an assembly and ground it at 0,0,0. Using that I can ground it at 80 feet in the air or whatever elevation I choose using the occurrence tab of iproperties for the part/assembly. That in and of itself goes a long way toward what i'm trying to do. There's also a rotational setting there that would work for setting an orientation, but it's greyed out. In fact, in any example I try and make, it's always greyed out.
I've tried doing it as an iassembly as well, but there doesn't seem to be any provision in iassemblies for making custom values like there is in an ipart.
Either a dialog to prompt for the info or via something like the occurrence tab is fine.each identical assembly/part has to be individually constrained to get the correct orientation?
AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Create Non-rotating View
Apr 20, 2012I have a solid body .ipt that I have created an assembly from. Some of the parts in the solid body can rotate which in turn rotates them in the assembly which is great. The problem is I need to create a drawing of the parts of the assembly. If I create a base view of a part that rotates the view rotates also, but I do not want that. Is there a way to create a view that always "looks" at a surface of a part no matter what position it is in?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotating A Gear With Shaft
Nov 22, 2013I am trying to create a simulation in which a shaft rotates and the a spur gear attached to the other end rotates with it. When I apply torque to shaft, the shaft does rotate but the gear does not. I believe I have done something wrong with the constraints.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Assembly Rotating Constraint
Mar 24, 2013I am using Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013.
Motor Model 1:1 is used to turn the wheel holders at various angles. The part named "front gear spring holder" is supposed to revolve and turn the inner part of the "front wheel holder" My problem is that I want to simulate the turning of the front wheel's using contact sets or 3d/2d contact sets in the dynamic simulation environment. I do not know how to do this, but I'm almost certain the program is capable of doing so. Also the spinning of the front wheels must be able to be done along with various angles of the front wheels(while turning, the front wheels must be able to still spin with the front gear spring holder".
I have seen threads and articles that say that making gears with contact sets is not recommended or possible but i have two instances here where they work perfectly fine using the dynamic simulation with 3d /contact sets. Take a look at the simulation I have saved as well.
I will need more on this assembly in the future, including how to create bevel gears that work at 90 degree angles or spur gears with contact sets instead of just simulating their movements .
AutoCAD Inventor :: Frame Generator Parts Rotating
Apr 2, 2012What would cause my frame generator parts to rotate when I change a completely different part on my frame. they seem to be off by a very small amount. they seem to rotate everytime a change something else in the frame and can change them to be correct..

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Prevent A Circular Body From Rotating
Sep 30, 2013In a weldment assembly i place a symmetric, circular part, but later i want to drill holes in it, and i am afraid that i will accidentally rotate it.
Can i place a constarint that prevents it from rotating? there is no such possibility.
I can ground the part, but i don't like it since if there are modifications they might not be applied (i don't have experience in grounded parts)
AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotating Text In Header Of Parts List
Nov 24, 2011I have been unable to rotate the header text in a parts list. I created a new text style that is rotated 90 deg, a new part list style that specifies to use that text style in the header. Everything else about the text in the header displays correctly (i.e. font, size, colour, etc) but not the rotation when I insert the parts list in a drawing using the correct standard. When I apply this same standard to a regular text line on the drawing it will rotate the 90 degs but not in the part list.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Frame Generator Parts Keep Rotating After Rebuild
Aug 5, 2011I have resorted to partially recreating frames.
I am working on one frame where I have rebuilt two parts multiple times and they still revert to being rotated slightly after performing a rebuild. I can continually hit the rebuild button and watch them rotate back and forth. Is there a known fix for some of these oddities with FG?
Notice the two tubes in the attached pic. I do not understand why they continue to rotate out of alignment after they are placed correctly. (They even look fine when placed.)

Oct 3, 2013I have a FrameGen BOM setup as desired and added the column for Mass/lbmass to get the weight. However on those rows where there are multiples of the Item QTY (2 of this, 3 of that) the Mass shows just the weight of one item rather than the combined weight...which is what I want. I tried making a custom property call WEIGHT and entering an expression, but in that selection I do have mass but not Item QTY as a selection.
