AutoCAD Inventor :: Display Part Origins In Assembly?

Aug 10, 2013

I'm on inventor 2012 and I've not used it in a whlie. I thought I remembered in an assembly there was an origin indicator for each part in an assebly or a way to turn it on. I know I can turn planes and axes on in the origin folder but it would be quicker to just glance at a triad at the part origin. There's a similar command in MAYA called display local rotation axes.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Assembly Constraints Doesn't Move The Part After Applying Them

Mar 21, 2013

I noticed when creating assemblies, applying a positional constraint, the parts don't move. In order to get the parts to "move" to their constrained position I have to try and drag them with the mouse then they snap into place. Also updating the assembly works as well.

What setting could I have changed so that once I press apply on a constraint it moves the part immediately?

AutoCAD Inventor :: IV2012 API - AddCircularPattern Doesn't Work With Axis From Part In Assembly

Feb 26, 2013

There are two cases, that should behave the same, but they don't.

First program works normally. Inventor generates a circular Pattern with the given Part.

' Part referenced in Obejct-Collection-Object
o_ObjectCollection (is defined)
' reference an Axis of the Assembly

[Code].....
 
Now, the second case, I try to take the Work Axis from a Part, that is placed in the Assembly,

but Inventor does not generate the Pattern. If I set the Axis visible, or even rename it, it works. But the AddCircularPattern does not work.

' Part referenced in Obejct-Collection-Object
o_ObjectCollection (is defined)
' reference an Axis from Part, placed in Assembly

[code]....

AutoCAD Inventor :: Imported Excel Sheet Display Half Of Parameters

Jul 18, 2012

I'm trying to link an Excel sheet to a new assembly but it is only listing half of the sheet parameters. I have done this before with no issues. I've also imported another sheet and it works fine. I copied and renamed a sheet I know that works deleting the data from it and coping the data I want and I get the same results. This lead me to believe there is something wrong with the sheet. See attached file.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Delete Fillet Without Deleting Half Of The Part At Same Time?

Oct 10, 2011

I made a fillet earlier and then continued to work on the part. Now when I try to delete the fillet (to replace it with chamfer) Inventor gives me a box: "delete features" and the middle box can be selected which says "dependent sketches and features". If I check the box and hit ok, some of the unreleated holes and chamfers gets deleted and the fillet I wanted to delete doesn't get deleted. If I uncheck the box, different chamfers and threads dissappear, fillet I wanted to delete stays in place again and yellow box appears on the corner of the part. So what should I do to just delete the fillet and keep everything else?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Simplified Part - Assembly Won't Merge Into One Seamless Part

Dec 11, 2013

I would like to simplify this assembly into one seamless part for FEM calculation:The assembly consists out of parts that, in reality, will be welded together. Due to their form, there is no way to place them exactly onto each other, therefore there are slight gaps between the parts:

Now when I try to merge the assembly into one part via "simplify" --> "create simplified part" and choose "single solid body with seams between planar faces merged", Inventor does not fill these gaps (even though it displays only one part in the bottom right corner of my window). Unfortunately, the remaining gaps brings "contact" problems in the FEM simulation.

how to close the gaps and really merge the assembly into one part?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can Part Make Alterations To Other Part When Inserting In Assembly

Mar 29, 2012

I have a part that has protrusions. When i mate that part up to another part that second part needs to have cutouts/holes to receive those protrusions.

i mainly use it in sheetmetal parts. and use the rectangular protrusions on de contour to mate up with corresponding cutouts in the other sheet. this works with positioning and also makes for a nice weld spot/area.

But also for making holes to accommodate a mold pin used in custom punch dies. I want the intervening part to receive a corresponding (propperly tolleranced) hole automatically. Much like a bolted connection does.

same for parts like circlips. i want them to automatically generate the seat in the part it's mated to. Rather than using the axle generator.

Ofcourse one can place the parts and do an in assembly interpart projection and go from there, but i want the part to generate the (predifined) modification to the other part. It would save time and also reduces problems as the parts are moved about or even removed.

AutoCAD Inventor :: CoG Needed For Each Sub Assembly In A 2 Part Assembly On An IDW

Oct 3, 2013

I have a two part duct fire damper assembly. The IDW has the combined two part assembly, which I know how to turn the CoG on, so that it can be dimensioned. The problem is each piece will more than likely be hoisted separately so I would like to show the CoG for each piece, not the combined master assy.is there a way to do this?

There is one issue which is troubling me from some time. 

Is it possible to identify the name of parent  assembly of part/sub-assembly.

For Instance there is a Sub-Assembly/Part, how can i identify the parent assembly using VB.net without opening that assembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Display Only Portion Of Assembly In Drawing View?

Jan 10, 2013

Is there a way to have a view in a sheet that displays a few specific components of an master assembly? There is a motor/gear-box assembly within my master assembly that I don't want to make a separate assembly for BOM purposes, but I want a .ipn view with the motor/gear-box "assembly" exploded. I tried making everything else in the master assembly "not visible" for the particular .ipn view, which works fine, but if I add or replace anything in the master assembly, those additions appear in the motor/gear-box .ipn and screw up the view.

I could just make a whole new assembly for the motor/gear-box and use that for the exploded view, but I would rather the view update to reflect slight changes I make in the motor/gear-box "assembly" from within the master assembly.

So can I create a .ipn view and say, "I want these particular components of an assemly to appear in this view but nothing else"?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Get Top Level Assembly To Display As Per Colours In Subassemblies

Sep 25, 2011

The model I have been working on has been trying to change it's colour all day. Finally I had a crash 'graphics adapter stopped working' and when I re-opened the model it had gone all blue. The top level assembly is all blue but the subassemblies are the proper colours when you open them.

I'm updating my graphics driver which should maybe stop the problem re-ocurring but in the meantime I need to get my top level assembly to display as per the colours in the sub assemblies.

AutoCAD Inventor :: DWG Doesn't Stay The Way It Was Made As Assembly Changes

Oct 22, 2012

I have an assembly that changes daily and drawings made at each step of the way using .dwg format.  The problem is, that when I add something to the assembly, it addes it to the drawings already made and as a result losses dims and notes that I made.  Is there a way to set the dwgs so that all new items added to the model automaticly are no visible in the drawings that were already created.  I spend a lot of time changing old drawing to what they used to be.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Part Within Assembly

I have an assembly of  stair made from steel. There are lots of part the same. Is there a way to make a hole (inside assembly) to one and that hole would appear on all of them.

And another problem, how can I made cut (inside assembly) through more then one part so that would affect a part also when I open it alone.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Replace Assembly With Part

Oct 6, 2012

I am capturing a book-case design that I made long ago into Intentor.  I am almost finished, and I want to produce .dwg files and a bill of materials of parts that can be held.

For various reasons, almost all the items in the existing design are assemblies, and the underlying parts correspond more or less to half of physical parts that are contained inside a repeating cell.  I will almost certainly continue using this approach.

A simplified design that shows this is at [URL]..... in the file Display.iam

I created the file Slat.ipt by using derive (Slat.iam).

If I replace the Slat assemblies with the file Slat.ipt, the bill of materials will show parts that correspond to physical parts that I can hold in my hand, or list on an invoice.  I can do this with many, many mouse operations.

To make this modification quickly, I attempted to do Component -> replace on the Slat assembly.  I use this operation a lot to replace one version of an assembly with another.  When I do it with a .ipt file, the system pauses for some tens of seconds, then crashes.

A brute force work around is to use the mouse to do the replacement, essentially rebuilding the entire project in place.

When i create a part in an assembly, i select a plane or face with the cursor, but then i select again a plane for the sketch.

Why this double selection, and what does the first selection do, if the part is actually sketched on the plane i selected in the second time.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Use Part Parameters In An Assembly

I need to use parameters of a part in an assembly. How to do this? Do i need to define a rule? How is this done?

Can i do it without using an Excel sheet as a parameter source for both the assembly and the part? The target is to have inventor update an array of assets as soon as the width of a part is changed whether in Excel or in the Factory properties of the asset.
