AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheetmetal R15 Flanges - Connecting Corners

Feb 6, 2012

I'm using Inventor 2010 and I have a problem with connecting the sheet metal corners to each other when making round radius flanges. How to connect the corners to each other (even though this is probably not possible in reality). Even better would be if the flat pattern of the sheet metal part would also look proper.

Note that the short edges are 90 deg bent and longer edges are 75 and 105 deg bent. This also makes creating "corner fill" parts a bit tricky.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change BOM Style In Welded Assembly?

Jun 13, 2012

I declared a BOM as "indivisible" when I converted an assembly to a welded assembly and currently I need to show the BOM as "Only parts" to insert it in a drawing. There is any way to convert the BOM style?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Plates Assembled And Welded - How To Treat Box As A Part

Nov 15, 2011

I have a bunch of plates.  The plates get welded to make a box and sent for stress-relieving. The box comes back and gets machined before it gets more parts added to make another assembly.

How is the best way to handle this in Inventor?

So far, I have created individual parts for each side of my box as each side is unique.  Then I have created an assembly bringing together each part (at this point I have not made any welding on my assembly).  Then I created another assembly to bring in my box to machine.  I have noticed that the feature "thread" to create a NPT hole is not available in assembly.

After the plates are assembled and welded to make a box, I would like to treat the box as a part no longer as an assembly.  Can it be done that way?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Cannot Export DXF Files From Sheetmetal Parts

Nov 18, 2013

Looking for reasons why I can't export DXF files from Inventor Sheetmetal parts.This has only occurred in the last few days.

Error says "Sketch export failed to initialize translator". This occurs when I run either of my 2 DXF macros AND if I RMB on the part Flat Pattern and Export Face As (or something like that - haven't that in a while). The macros lead me to a debug lin of oDataIO.WriteDataToFile sOut, oDXFfileNAME

I have used these 2 macros for 5+ years and have not experienced this before.

Add-ins shows that the Translator: DXF is Automatic / On Demand.

I found an earlier post here [URL] .... but this seems to be loosely related to Avast. I have Trend (server based). Can't remember any new installations of late apart from Flash.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Create Odd Shaped Hole In Sheetmetal Part

Jul 3, 2012

I'm trying to create a hole in a sheet-metal part so that a pipe can be welded in it, see attached picture. What's the best method to do this? Because the flat-pattern of this hole isn't an ellipse-shape (more like an egg), it seems it's very difficult to do.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheetmetal Contour Roll Flat Pattern

Jan 21, 2013

Inventor 2013-I'm working on a sheet metal cover using contour roll and I find when I dimension the flat pattern that radii that should be the same are not. Can my approach is fundamentally flawed? I  tried making this part out of one 220 degree contour roll and I found when dimensioning that the center points of the arcs are not symmetric as expected. I then used two contour rolls to create the part basing the second contour roll on the first contour roll sketches and I still have the same issues.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Sheetmetal IPart Part Grows Slightly Between Each Variance

May 31, 2012

I am using IV 2010.  After creating a sheetmetal ipart my part grows slightly between each variance.

When toggling between the different parts IV says that they need updated.  I have updated them but if I toggle back after updating the other parts IV wants me to update again and it creates a circle of updating.  Does this mean that making a sheet metal i part is a half baked idea?  Right now the way the program is responding to sheet metal iparts it would appear that you either cannot have a flat pattern or you part cannot lengthen or shorten the different variances with keeping the flat pattern.  It would appear that all is well with part with exception of this updating problem. How to eliminate IV from asking to update in between variances while keeping the flat pattern?  Also I am using sheet metal extens add in.

3ds Max Modeling :: TurboSmooth Artifacts On Welded Edges

Aug 15, 2012

When I use the TurboSmooth modifier I get artifacts that you can see in the upper red rectangle of the second picture. Is this due to the former welding process that I used or is it just a geometry issue?

Furthermore I get a shape that`s supposed to be a nice 'round' surface. Probably it's just putting in some more vertecies? (second picture, lower rectangle)

For better understanding I attached the before and after pics with mesh turned on.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Importing Drawings - Sheet Metal Corners

Jul 18, 2013

I am importing drawings from autocad which are known to bend correctly in real life. However, when I bend the parts on inventor, there is interferance with the corners. Material is 18 GA. HRPO, bend radius and k-factor are updated correctly (to my knowledge). In my "folded" image, is there a way to prevent the part from bending past the bend line?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Filling Irregular Corners With Weld - Overlap Groove Welds With Fillet Welds

Jan 14, 2013

Using Inventor Professional 2013

In the attached assembly, I would like to fill the four corners (see Figure 1) with weld to make one smooth bead around the perimeter of the end cap rather than using fillet weld to lay down four linear beads along the edges. I accomplished this with a groove weld (see Figure 2). However, problems occurred (pasted below) when I attempt to weld this piece to a surface.

Error message:

" Create Weld Feature: problems encountered while executing this command.
example.iam: Errors occurred during update
Fillet Weld 3: Could not build this Fillet Weld feature
The attempted operation had problems trimming and discarding faces. Try with different inputs."

When I had the four original fillet weld beads, I could fillet weld this part to a surface no problem (see Figure 3). When I switched it to a groove weld to get the desired corner appearance, I get errors. I tried to mess around with the tick boxes in the groove weld dialog box to try to fix the problem but nothing worked.

Ultimately, my problem can be solved if I could simply fill the corner gaps without using the groove weld command. This would eliminate the errors associated with fillet welding over groove welds.

Let me know if the attached files do not work. This is my first time uploading an assembly and its associated part files.

Figure 1: Corner with fillet welds (need to fill that gap)

Figure 2: Corner with groove weld (gap filled)

Figure 3: Fillet welded (concave) to plate. Still need those corners filled.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Lines Moving Each Other At Corners

Apr 16, 2013

I  am having a problem with moving a line that is attached at a corner to another, as it moves that line as if I clicked on the intersecting snap point at the end of both lines and dragged it. I want to move or copy the line away, but it somehow is attached to the other, and is quite annoying and impossible to work with without deleting and redrawing lines. I've tried exploding them, but they are not joined in that way, and are not "grouped" (I don't think, because when I did "group" them, it made a box around them and highlighted both lines at the same time). A symbol shows that is two boxes, one an outline and the other solid which is up and to the right. I can't figure out what mode it is in to turn it off!
