AutoCAD Inventor :: Changes To Cm Instead Of Mm?

Dec 6, 2011

Using Inventor 2012 Premium, this problem didn't exist in 2011.

When I click "I"->New(small arrow)->Part. All dimensions are in cm.

If I instead click "I"->New and choose the Part template all dimensions are in mm, as it should. I have two .ipt-templates (standard (mm) and sheet metal (mm))

My college went through all templates we have and no one uses cm.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Design Copy - Error Copying A File / Inventor Crashes

Nov 5, 2013

I'm trying to use iLogic Design Copy to copy an assembly and all its associated parts to another directory. The assembly contains content center parts. Inventor warns me that the destination file of one of the CC parts (and 18 others) will be overwritten. When I go ahead and copy anyway, the copying process stops at that specific CC part. The Design Copy Progress dialog box states there is an error copying that CC part. When I close the Design Copy Progress dialog box, Inventor crashes.

The error copying the CC part: I'm allowed to use content center parts in iLogic Design Copied stuff, right? I searched some related topics and I'm under the impression that Inventor keeps the CC parts in its own directory and shouldn't be trying to overwrite them.

AutoCAD Inventor :: DWG To STP

Jan 7, 2013

we modeled prototypes of trains (locomotives) in 3dsMax, these models will be used to produce molds and thumbnails of these, you must give the producer STP files, max does not export these files, and we have exported in various formats supported by some programs if exported STP, eg Inventor, we have exported files are STL, oBJ and DWG, so far so good, all save the parts or layers without problem.

The problem comes when exporting from Inventor to STP, nothing happens, the STP file is as if you were empty, there is nothing ..

I have attached the DWG file, if possible, have 17 CAD models for export to STP.

AutoCAD Inventor :: From Ipt To Dxf

Aug 24, 2011

I'm new to inventor, used it to design a computer case of my own, so now that I got all of my parts in ipt I need to convert them to dxf in 1:1 scale.

What is the easiest way to do that? I found some info here [URL]... but in the Environments tab I don't have any ''AEC Exchange''.

Oh and another thing, after sketching all my parts I ''deleted'' the dimensions from the view, so is there any way I can make them show up in that dxf because I will have to send the dxf's to someone who will laser cut the parts, so dimensions have to be shown of course, or do I have to add them one by one?

AutoCAD Inventor :: BIM Exchange

Oct 23, 2012

I am using 2013 inventor and revit. I am trying to use this BIM exchange in inventor and I am try to by creating a simple part/family with a couple of different sizes in a table. Everything looks good in inventor as far as the table having different size and when I activate one it changes the part. When I export I am going to tools, BIM exchange, hitting export and away she goes. There is only one export button and everything is pretty simple to understand. So inventor as far as I know, is good.

Now when I bring it into revit as the ASDK format from export with BIM exchange as I am getting is the model with whatever view happens to be active. I am not getting the table nor the parameters I set up for manually changing the family.

I have done some research and noticed that in previous verisons you needed to export the table in inventor after that model, but I am not seeing that option anywhere. 

So my question is, am I missing something and you can no longer export parametric parts from inventor to revit, or is there another set I am missing either in the inventor setup or the import into revit?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Convert DWF To IPT?

Mar 9, 2012

Is it possible to convert a DWF to an .ipt (or .iam) file so that I can use the base DWF geometry in an Inventor assembly?

I have a dwf file that a customer sent me that is ~1.5 Mb.  I asked to get it in a usable format and they sent a .stp file that is 23.3 Mb and Invetor just hangs (not responding).  I let it try to load a few times for several hours without any luck.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Converting STP / IGS To IPT

Nov 30, 2012

I have a file from a suppliers website that comes in either STP or IGES files.  I'm trying to convert it into an IPT to be useable in one of my models, but I don't seem to be having any luck with it.  I don't convert many STP/IGS files, and most of the time when I do they just work without many issues.

I can get the model to look proper in this one, its just that working with it makes Inventor run incredibly slow.  When I want to add an assembly to a drawing that is using this model, it takes several minutes just to place the view, removing the part and it works quickly again.  

The part can be downloaded here:

[URL]....

How to best get this file to a useable IPT file, as I can't have it grinding my computer to a halt every time I use the model.
