AutoCAD Inventor :: Cannot Convert To Weldment

May 31, 2013

I have a medium sized assembly that I was working with.  I decided I needed to create a weldment, so I stripped the assembly of all subassemblies, individual parts, etc and saved it as a different name.  However, Inventor will not allow me to convert it to a weldment.  That optoin is greyed out.

The only thing I can think of is I have a base part that I have hidden.  It is used to drive the assembly.  Perhaps that is causing a problem, but I cannot remove it or all associativity will be lost.  I deleted it temporarily to try, but did not save it.  The convert to weldment option did not appear after I deleted it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Convert Assembly To A Weldment

Aug 28, 2013

I just was upgraded to Inventor 2014. I've got an assembly that I want to convert into a weldment. The "Convert to Weldment" icon doesn't appear where it used to be in 2013. I cannot find a way to make it pop up. Is it no longer possible to use this button to convert a an assembly into a weldment?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Split Face In Weldment?

Sep 19, 2013

I'm trying to model plug welds in IV2014.  I've read all the posts here that say that I need to split the hole faces.  Problem is, the split face command doesn't seem to appear in weldments.  I want to make the holes to be plugged as a weld preparation.  Am I just missing something here, or is IV so backward that a common weld can only be achieved when not working with a weldment?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Adaptivity In Weldment Machining

Jun 28, 2013

I started my project, the design is basically a bulkhead chassis design with multiple access panels on all 3 sides. I wanted all of the hole patterns on this assembly to be based on one sketch. So I created a base part inside the assembly, this part compiled of sketches and the sketches compiled of construct lines and points (for panel and chassis fastener hole patterns). This was going great, after learning a couple tricks.

Manufactuing had determined that I need to machine the holes on the chassis after welding. Which means I need to move the adaptive features, from the part files, to the assembly file.

So here is my problem, assembly sketchs are not adaptable? Either projecting to (from that base part file), or projecting from (from the assembly sketch to the part file). I tried both. How I should model this? How do I make weldment machining adaptive?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Replace Components In Weldment Assembly

Mar 25, 2013

In past I replaced components in Assemblies with this sub:

Sub testReplacePartInAss()
Call ReplacePartInAss("W:INVENTORTPart1.ipt", "W:INVENTORTPart2.ipt")
End Sub

[Code] .....

But if the assembly is a weldment assembly the line

If oOcc.ReferencedDocumentDescriptor.FullDocumentName = sInAssFilename Then

creates an error '91' that the object is not set.

What has to be changed in this code so that it will work with 'normal' assemblies AND weldment Assemblies too.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Derived Weldment Changes To 2 Solid Bodies

Apr 24, 2012

Open the attached file 207665-124.ipt. how their is only one Solid Body, but the iam needs to be updated because the user added one more part to the assembly.  As soon as it updates now instead of one Solid Body I have 2.  I don't want 2 and this is not typical.  Even if I derive the 207665-120 into a brand new part file, it is only one body. What is causing this to seperate into 2 bodies?  I tried to re-create this from scratch and can't, but he has several files like this that need updates and the 2 bodies causes problems with the holes.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Exporting Welds Along With Parts From Weldment?

Apr 22, 2013

Is it possible to export a weldment and include the weld volumes?  I'm attempting to export to an .stl file and the welds are missing in the resultant file.  (Or am I doing something wrong?)  The weldment was converted from a standard assembly file, but the BoM structure was set to Normal, not Inseparable.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Flat Pattern On Weldment Drawing

Apr 3, 2013

I have a weldment which includes a sheet metal part called sPart. I want to show a detail of the flat pattern of sPart on the weldment drawing and still be able to balloon the flat as the part of the weldment. So I clicked to add base view and selected sPart from the Preparation dropdown list under the Model State tab of the Drawing View dialog box. The problem is I cannot find an option for using the parts flat pattern.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Stress Analysis On Weldment Assembly

May 27, 2012

My design consists of two steel rails that are welded together on top of a guardrail system. To allow the weld to be added between the steel rails I have converted my assembly file to a weldment.

My question is now I have this converted assembly with it's weld in the design can this still be used to perform stress analysis on ? I am not sure the need for assembly to be converted to allow a weld to be added.

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?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Weldment Assembly - Constraining On Revolved Part

Jan 24, 2013

I'm really struggling with constraining a weldment assembly. I've attached a JPG of the Assembly but I cant get the constrains to go where I want them.

Basically this assembly is a wheel with three equally spaced stays welded to a large nut hub. I have constrained the center axis of the wheel to the center axis of the Nut so the wheel and nut will remain aligned. 

What I'm struggling with is constraining the three stays to the wheel and to the nut equally spaced around the nut.

3ds Max :: Backburner 2014 Could Not Find A Manager

Oct 30, 2013

I'm trying to set up Backburner and 3DS Max Design, and I'm a newbie to both. I'm getting the warning 'Could not find a Manager. Will keep trying...' when I try to connect to my manager machine from the server machine using the manager's IP address. I can connect to the manager from the monitor on the server machine, however, and I can connect from a virtual machine running Windows 8. The server machine is running Windows Server 2012 - I haven't been able to find where someone says if you can or can't use Server 2012.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2014 FrameGen - BOM Weights

Oct 3, 2013

I 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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2014 - DWG Will Not Check Into Vault

May 29, 2013

I am having issues getting my .dwg files to check back in to Vault Basic. I can get all different types of files (.iam .ipt .idw) to check in without issues, but .dwg files hang and Inventor will eventually lock up.

I've tried disabling Visualization and I still cannot make it past this point. I can even tell it to check in everything at once, and it will breeze through the other files but any .dwgs will hang.

My PC Config:

Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz
16 GB RAM
Dual AMD Radeon HD 6450
Running Product Design Suite 2014

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2014 Ghosting Graphics

Jul 30, 2013

I sometimes am having some graphics problems. I placed a gantry into an assembly and it leaves a 'ghost' image behind. When I go under options and change from say 'smoother' to 'smooth' the problem goes away. Any way to avoid this totally?

My specs: Inventor Professional 2014, 64 bit edition, I've got an HP Z400 desktop which is a 3.2GHz Processor with 4 cores, 12 GB RAM. NVIDIA Quadro 4000 graphics card.

I never had this problem with 2012, nor 2013, same computer, same settings which I always import.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Import Revit (RFA) To 2014?

Aug 12, 2013

We are being pushed from some of our customers to supply BIM files for Revit.I was told by our software supplier that Inventor 2014 could create Revit files, and it looks as though I can via the BIM Tab on the Ribbon. I havent used Revit or created any BIM content before and I was hoping to open another manufactures file (*.RFA) in Inventor to disect the file and how to create our own files. I can only find an import option in the OPEN dialog box for a Revit Project File (*.rvt). Is it possable to open/import a RFA files in Inventor 2014?

AutoCAD Inventor :: View 2014 Printing

Aug 9, 2013

My production team uses the Inventor View to view drawings once they are released from engineering.  Sometimes they get printed so they can send a copy to our vendors.  When ever they print from Inventor View 2014 the lines that are on the Visible Layer do not print.  Also the lines in the titeblock are not very dark even though the "print all colors black" has been checked.  It does not matter which printer or computer is used.
