AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Split Body Partially?
Dec 29, 2012Wonder if there is a way to split the body at the central region only and not across the whole length. Like to split the solid into 7 solids along the v-grooves.
Using IV2012.

I have an insert that I'd like to split into several layers. Is it possible to do this with the split tool, or is it limited to only one "split tool" at a time?
In the picture, the wireframe is the 'insert', the letters indicative of cavities cut into the insert. The purple sketch lines would be typical of where the solid part would be split into multiple parts.

if i draw up a 3d sold part as the finished part, can i then draw a new rectangle solid body over the top of this and split the new solid body using the part as the split tool?
the idea being that i am left with a rectangular plate with a female 3d impression of the finished part in the top.I can't seem to use the part as a split tool?
I'm trying to split a single solid body into 2 solid bodies. The problem is that the body I'm trying to split consists of two separate pieces. I can split a body when it is a single piece no problem, but I'm having the problem when the two pieces are not joined at all.
When I try and split it on the origin plane it gives this error:
"Creating parting line failed. Could not build this Split"
When I try and split it on a work plane lying on one of the pieces it gives this error:
"Creating parting line failed. Modeling failure in ASM. Redefine inputs."
Or, another variation on this erorr:
"Creating parting line failed. Split feature could not create two bodies. Change the Split Tool so that split feature can create two bodies."
I have been working for an hour trying to add this split to this part. I have an extruded surface (ExtrusionSrf10) that I need to use as the parting line. When I try this all I get is a "Create parting line failed.....Errors occurred during update".
I have done this many times on other parts, this one is being a pain. I need the split to have two solids when its done. The reason that I want this is so I can sculpt out a portion of this block.

Basically I am evaluating to model rebars in Inventor. Rebars come in predefined shapes - for example a "L" bar will have two dimensions (marked as A, E and R). The shape definition is fixed by a standard (like BS:8666) and the values for dimensions A, E and R are provided when it is instantiated as a part in an assembly.
I created an assembly as follows:Created a new part containing just a solid cube.Created a part for the above rebar by sweeping a circle along path which resembelled the above bar.Created an assembly and inserted the cube as 1st part.Inserted the L bar part as 2nd partInserted another L bar as 3rd part.modified the 3rd part's diameter and found it updates the other L bar as well.
My questions:Is there any way for me to create the part for L bar without giving any fixed values for the sweep path and sweep profile diameter and use it in assembly?If the above question doesn't has a solution, then is there any way for me to change one instance of the part to change while other instances of it doesnt get affected (the behaviour said in step 6 of above should not happen).
Some parts properties of one project has partially or completely grey in browser.
Nothing special had happened prior to this problem. It happened with some absolutely irregular and not systematic affection as like a fallen and broken ink bottle makes something completely colored and some other stuff just partially and some not.
I mean some parts properties are completely grey and some have just several grey properties while some other are not affected (see video link)
It is a permanent bug and seems it belongs to the part itself since the reloading Inventor and windows and Task Scheduler attempts to fix it - all gray colors stay exactly where they were before and in same irregularity. Opening the affected parts in other project gave the same result as in original one.

Is there away to use an IFeature creating a new body?
I mean, modeling a part as multibody, i would like to insert a feature with an iFeature, but i would like too that that new feature will be a new body.
I have tried in many ways.. including inserting in the ifeature a Split Feature..but with no sucess.
Is possible create new Body (SolidBody) for iFeature? In VBA or .NET.

View 7 Replies View Relatedi used to use Solidwork's sweep-cut with a solid body feature but i can't find it in Inventor now.
Procedure:
In part file;
Create a second solid body (must be axis-symetric, like revolved feature),
Create a path that intersects with the solid (can be a line or a curve),
Sweep the solid along the path with cut command.
I need this where the sweep-cut with a profile is not enough, to get surfaces obtainable by milling on a cylindirical body on a helical path.
I'm trying to emboss a sketch to a lofted body. The same sketch is embossed perfectly on a flat/round/extruded/chambered body, but on this particular lofted body I get an error ("Thicken operation would result in a large topology change. Try with a smaller thickness"). I already tried with 0.01mm thickness and still not work. What could be the cause. (I'm using IV 2013)

I do realize that I can create the hole in a seperate feature, after the mirror. It will only let you select one 'solid' during the mirror command. Here is a simple .ipt to demonstrate the issue.
what this error means and what's causing it and how to fix it?
IV2010, editing a multi body part gives these errors:
1. No more memory available. Attempt to allocate 208 bytes of memory failed.
and
2. See attached.
This error is preventing me from saving or closing the program.
I'm making drawings of assemblies in Inventor 2012 and was wondering how to turn off the visibility of specific solid bodies within a single part containing multiple bodies, or make it match the visibility in the assembly and part file itself.
In particular my situation is that I have a camera whose part model includes a solid body for its view cone. The visibility of this solid is turned off, so when opening the camera itself, or the assembly containing it, it doesn't appear, but when I place that assembly or part in a drawing it's included, and the only way I've figured out to get rid of it is to turn the whole camera's visibility off within the drawing.
Whenever I place a view of a derived part (or an assembly containing derived parts) the body of that from which the part was derived is also displayed, even though when viewing the part or assembly file they are invisible. It is almost as if there is a "ghost" reference to the parent body of the derivation - surely there must be a way to turn this off?

Here comes the problem:
when i was changing the volume parameter, i recieved an error that this property was read-only.is it possible te use the volume calculation from inventor the calculate back to the diameter or height? ,and also for a solid body?
If so, what do i need to do? I am using inventor 2013 (basic).
Any way of forcing an update of the colour styles from the original Multi-Body part to the assembled/derived components.
I always control colours in the original Multi-body part as I can select groups in one go to change colours, this doesn’t filter down to the derived/assembly component I then have to go into each part and uncheck then recheck the 'Use color override from source component'.
I am aware of the reg file/vba to remove the source override completely but which works for certain ways of working / problems, but I want to control it from the original part which I assume was the way it was intended as it is the default option!

I have found how to assign total volume of the part to a parameter using iLogic rule.:
Total_Volume = iProperties.Volume
and that's it.
You can do it also for a component in an assembly , but can't see how to do it for a body...

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)
Is it correct that the BOM will not show thumbnails for a multibody assembly until the component are dirtied? I initially get 'preview not available' for all parts in the assembly. Opening a part and (for example) moving the EOP back and forth will then cause the thumbnail to show in the BOM.
Is there any quick workaround or do I have to write a macro?

I am trying to draw a series of flow channel (in a row) in a rectangular parallelepiped.
So I sketched a rectangle -> extruded (cut) -> sketched another rectangle -> extruded -> sketched another rectangle inside of one of channel -> extruded, and finally made a flow channel like in attached file.
What I hope to know are :
(1) Is there a way to copy that flow channel? Or should I have to do same repeatedly for tens of flow channel?
(2) Is there a way to make a flow channel easily?
I am trying to convert this composite surface into a single solid body, however when I try to stich the surfaces in the construction environment it always crashes. I have also tried edditing the STEP file import options but it still always opens as a composite surface.
