I want to apply a pressure load on portion of a surface in my INVENTOR solid model. My problem is that i cannot split the surface in inventor easily. I did it my creating a separate surface with an offset that i reduced to almost zero.
View 4 RepliesI use INV 2013. MOVE THE END OF THE PART DOWN TO SEE WHATS HAPPENING. (MOVED TO REDUCE THE FILE SIZE). I am trying to split the solid using the surface as shown.
But, I am unable to do so. Also, I need to create a new surface with 0.50mm offset to create female form die.How to do it.
Attached is a surface model with parameters which drives an assembly I have. I was testing it by changing dimensions to see where failures in the main assembly occured. It worked for a few changes so I saved it and checked it into vault.
The Split using the 70 Deg Plane (you will find them in the browser, Split 5 and Split 7) is where the problem occurs. When I increase the outside diameter (i made it 147 in.), Spits 5 and 7 get moved up to the top half.
The same surface (named OUTER HOUSING SIDE) and its mirror are split on the XZ plane prior to the splits in question (5 and 7).
I do a lot of visualization work I need a corridor top surface split by material FAST. before I used Corridor Solids but I don't have the extension in 2013. So I export to CivilView, so far so good, then attempt to roundtrip the mesh back in Civil3D and that is where things fall apart.
Export to DWG is not split by material
Export to 3DS results in a blank screen
Export to FBX comes in missing large chunks of mesh out of scale and in the wrong location
how I can add more volume to curved object surface? Say for example I have a plastic cup.You can think of this as cylinder object ,which was the shelled out using the shell tool and then had its base sealed.
Now at certain parts, I would like to increase the thickness and then blend it the rest of the surface(may be chamfer its edges) .
At certain parts on curved surface I would like to add an extra mm, I think if the surface was flat I would just sketch the shape, then extrude it by few mm and smooth the edges by doing a chamfer
But how can this be done on surface that is curved? Or multi curved for edges?
I'm designing a press for a skateboard similar to: Rib Press
I have the board modeled: (see attached)
Now what i want to do is generate those ribs as seen in the picture.
I tried creating a block that intersected with the board and tried to split the rib at the surface, but to no avail. I think the issue has something to do with the curve of the board in two directions, but i can't seem to get it right.
if you are having trouble visualizing what i'm asking about, look at this. I want to be able to figure out the exact shape of those center ribs to print and eventually cut out of wood.
It is not possible forme to add the fil because it is to large 1.8MB how can I poste then I like to know if it is possible to extend the button flat surface diameter ø12.5 up to the shaped surface. The result should be a total solid block whit a surface shaped hole.

I am a beginner when a extrude a feature and select a part surface for new sketch now i want is to offset that surface but i can,t there is + sign with mouse icon and something like fully constrained is written in down the window.

I have a very large assembly drawing. The BOM is three times the height of my D size format. How do you split the BOM to break it into 2 or 3 columns instead of one large one that does not fit on the paper?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a part I have drawn in inventor. It is saved as an ".ipt" file.
I would like to split this part into two seperate Ipt files so i can assemble it a different way.
For example,
the part i wish to design is an alternate keying of the one i just drew-
meaning that a solid of the part is rotated 60 degrees in this case.
Is it possible to do this with inventor commands?
I modified a box build in Inventor in Fusion and then imported it back into Inventor as a bowl. I am trying to split the bowl in half and create an assembly drawing which I can submit. When I try to split the bowl I get and error message: "The attempted operation did not successfully complete due to unforseen problems. Try with different inputs or outputs." I've attached the file in case you want to try yourself.

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?

I have been working for an hour trying to add this split to this part. I have an extruded surface (ExtrusionSrf10) that I need to use as the parting line. When I try this all I get is a "Create parting line failed.....Errors occurred during update".
I have done this many times on other parts, this one is being a pain. I need the split to have two solids when its done. The reason that I want this is so I can sculpt out a portion of this block.

is there a command or workflow to split all intersecting surfaces? currently we build surface models and split manually or open in autocad, explode, overkill, breakall, then export the lines for rebuilding in an FE package.
Ideally we would like to export straight from inventor with one hit i would like to do the 5 splits below the EOP marker automatically

Is it possible to split your inventor session in 2 screens?
Without having to use 2 sessions ofc.
See what happens if i make a part after a split has taken place. This thing is driving me crazy. Misplaced part? How it's possible?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI would like to radius the edge of a block for about 1" along a 3" edge. In Solid-doesn't-Works I would select an eddge to radius and then would edit it pulling one end of the line to radius back to the desired length of the radius.Here I find no option to edit the edge, I have also tried splitting the edge but I can't seem to make that feature work. Is there a way to do this short of creating a work plane at one end of the edge and then creating a cut to a set depth?

Using the image below, I want to removed the yellow extrusion up to the red circular edge, I assumed split tool would do this.
And I don't require this but i would like to show the splines on the ends to "feather" out to the round like the actual axle does. (this is just for aesthics) I have the extrusion done, But I can't figure out feature is requied to do this, loft?
I am wondering how many times you can use split command on one part?
I have never used split command before.
if you look at the image below, i would like to split this into 4 pieces, and looking for the quickest and the way that makes the most sense way to do it.
I have an insert that I'd like to split into several layers. Is it possible to do this with the split tool, or is it limited to only one "split tool" at a time?
In the picture, the wireframe is the 'insert', the letters indicative of cavities cut into the insert. The purple sketch lines would be typical of where the solid part would be split into multiple parts.

I decided to model an industrial iron caster wheel with polyurethane tread, and all went well. Tonight I added three ribs to one side of the caster wheel, which looks great, but I would rather not repeat the process on the other side because of all the fillets and such which would have to be repeated.
Is it possible to split the wheel down the middle and then mirror the side with the ribs? I saw that I can split the model with a plane, but I can't figure out how to remove the geometry on the left side of the plane.

I need to either add a custom balloon to a 3D wiring harness (made of individual wires) or add a split balloon (showing item number then sheet number) to my layout. What I have now is a 3D harness with all my connectors shown on it and a balloon calling out what connector it is. I want to attach a custom split balloon to my connector callouts to reference the wire and sheet number of another sheet in the same project. I should also mention that there are tons of connectors that as far as Inventor is concerned is the same model.
I've already created a user symbol to attemp to work around it but I can't attach the custom symbol to the existing balloon.
Secondly, why can't I attached a balloon to the 3D harness anyway. I also can't add a balloon to the nailboard view either!
I'm using frame generator.
The design doctor indicates I have errors re splits have no effect. When I check the part I find several end conditions. Some times a red box and arrows shows up at one of the ends. I can redo an end condition with delete existing end conditions checked and it eliminates the extra end conditions. The red box and arrow stays behind. This does ot always hapen. Is there any way to delete the red box and arrow?
This just happened to me this morning, I split a part into a multibody part and as soon as I did the split, the entire design tree got greyed out. It doesnt matter if I have only one body visible or both of them, the tree stays greyed out. I can still edit features but its annoying to not know what is on and whats off. I opened a new file mocked up a quick part with various features performed a split and same results.

I do have a problem on SPLIT feature. I cannot seem to apply SPLIT SOLID into an entity/object but, on the other object I am able to apply SPLIT SOLID.
Sketch created using MultiBody and would like to make use of "Make Components" to create an assembly as well as parts.
I have attach a zip file of the ipt. I am currently using Autodesk Inventor Suite 2012.
Wonder if there is a way to split the body at the central region only and not across the whole length. Like to split the solid into 7 solids along the v-grooves.
Using IV2012.
I would like to split my form vertically. I have a number fo fields that are used to select options in my system. The fields span the width of the form which due to graphics used is fairly wide. I would like to add a discription field in line with and next to my selections.
