why this difference in weight is appearing? Obviously i probably did something wrong. But what?

The weight of the parts is correct but if the quantity is greater than 1 in a weldment the BOM collumm does not do the math and multiply the quantity X the weight. If it is a formula what is the syntax?

I have an assembly that i need to know the mass of, easy enough, however the assembly needs to be weighed without some of the parts in it. I hought i could simply uncheck "enabled" of the unwanted parts and re check the mass, however it does not change. Any solution besides adding the wanted parts individually?
View 6 Replies View RelatedWe have the weight inour title block tied to the mass property.It is set to populate automatically and it does very nicely.
The issue comes when I have an assembly and in the BOM I set certain components to be reference. When I go to Iproperties and then under the Physical tab select update,
the value updates there, but not in the associated drawing title block.
I am trying to include the weight for all components in assembly BOM as well as calculated overall weight in TB, but there are no available property to choose from in the drop-down list.

The only way to get them to display correctly is to select a line in the view and right click select properties and hit OK.

View 3 Replies View RelatedOur Autocad parts lists used to calculate the weight of parts times the quantities. Now we are using Inventor and I see that the weight shown on a parts list is the weight of an individual part - although the quantity could be 2 , 3 (more than one). Is there a way to have the total weight shown equal to MASS times ITEM QTY?
View 1 Replies View Relatedi have an already edited part list (because there are parts that come from different assemblies and other ones that don't have to appear in that part list) and i like to show the total weight of my drawing, that doesn't correspond with any assembly.
So, there is any possibility of summing up the values of a part list column.

A user just point out to me that when making a coil with 12 revolution is OK but 13 is really wrong.
tube Ø54x2 mm
Øcoil = 800 mm
pitch = 55 mm
Is there a patch for that?
Guide me through weight takeoffs and RISA 3D type actions in Inventor? My company is currently using AutoCAD to make drawings, Inventor to make models, an in-house analysis program (for weights, moments, loads, modulus of elasticity, and yield strength) as well as RISA 3D for final design. I need to streamline this process, and I know Inventor can do it all.

I tried Stress analysis employing a teeter block but that only showed deflection caused by the various weights and not the affect of gravity. The gravity feature required data I don't have at present but before going through another learning curve I think it best to verify the appropriate direction.

I want to changed the default visible line weight for all drawings. I just can't get it to work. I have changed my project file settings to "Read-Write", I have tried this in both the Default Standard and my own standard. I changed the "Visible (ANSI)" Line Weight, saved it, then hit "Save" on the Styles and Standards bar. It works for a document. But when I open a new document, the line weight has reverted back to the old value.

I can control line colour and line type (as in solid, dashed, dotted etc) from Manage - Styles editor - Layers.
When I make changes to the "Visible" layer:
- the line colour changes come through both to screen and printer
- the line type only comes through to the screen, but not to the printer
- the line weight is ignored both by screen and printer
Tools - Application Options - Drawing - Display line weights

URL....When experimenting I found out that the materials are displayed in the browser but don´t appear any more when a parameter is changed. The browser still displays them right but I need to change them and apply them to get Inventor to display them again. I´ve attached two screenshots to show you the material is still assigned.
The assets have been authored with a german Inventor version and opened in a English language pack version. Changing the target language and replacing the English library had no effect at all.
I will be forced to open EVERY Asset and change ALL the materials with German names to their English counterpart. Including colour styles I apply by ilogic.
I was working on max using the hair a fur modifery to try and test out something when I noticed somethign strange. When I right clicked in the view port to bring up the options (exsample cut, convert to polygon, hide, fezze ect.) it wouldn't come up. Hears what I've tried. Reinstal max, get a copy of the default interface from a school computer and tried loading that, turning off windows 7 's background color transparancy, removing all things installed right before the problem, run a system check for errors, a viruse scan and right now I'm trying a full restore from a back up. I don't know what's going on. I suspected that my graphic's card drive might be the caulprate but I checked that as well and it says that its all clear. I took the files that had the problem to other computers and they had no issue. It doesn't matter what file I load either this is universal. I can start with a blank file and the right click view port menue won't come up.

Launch 3ds max. Go to any view port upon launch. Right click in view port and no menue comes up.

Any other difference (other than the interface)?
why there is huge difference in Dynamic Simulation results when you use two different input methods? I used input grapher and in linear ramp, I entered input (time/ distance) manually for 6 points and ran simulation. Then I used Spline and used a text file to enter SAME data and it gave me at least 10 times different results. Can't figure out why this difference. This changes my entire design.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having a problem with sketches not appearing on drawings in Inventor 2012. This is for a product line made using iparts and iassemblies, and affects approximately 150 drawings.
These sketches were made in Inventor R11, and are attached to part features in the drawing view. When opening these drawings in 2012, the dimensions that were attached to the sketch are still visible, (albeit in the wrong places and on the wrong features), but the sketch itself is not. The sketch still exists as an item under the view, but the actual contents of the sketch (lines and hatching) are gone.
The assembly consists of three identical cylindrical parts with mitred ends welded together in two operations to form a T-shaped part. I have a view representation for each operation. The drawing has each view on one page.
The first step requires welding the two parts together to form an "L" shape, and then cutting off a portion of the corner of the "L" to facilitiate joining the third part in the second operation. In my assembly, I mated the two cylindrical parts together, then created a sketch and using geometry projected from the parts, defined the area of material removal at the corner and extruded the feature. Then, I mated the third part.
However, since I cannot turn off the extrusion when defining a view representation, I needed to redraw the corner I removed so it reflected reality when showing this first phase on the drawing,. I accomplished this using a sketch on the view in the .idw, again using geometry projected from the part. This worked out excellently in Inventor R11. Not only was I able to show the missing part, but because this was an iassembly made from iparts, I could use the same drawing for differnet sizes by "saving as..." and then selecting a diffenent Assembly State on the Model State tab of the Drawing View Dialog Box. The views would update, and so would my sketch, since it was defined by the geometry of the part.
So we continued on this way, and now that we've moved to 2012, none of these sketches appear anymore. We're faced with having to redo this work on every drawing that we've created for this part -- about 150 or so.
