AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Split Edge For Radius

Feb 8, 2012

I 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?

3ds Max :: Creating Simple Pink Eraser - Radius Edge On Object

Jul 26, 2011

I'm creating a simple pink eraser by creating the outline with a spline to get the basic shape then extruded it. Now the edges are square/sharp. How do you get a radius on the sharp edges? I applied an "Edit Poly" modifier but it only allows for an edge chamfer and I need a smooth radius.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Change Radius On A Bend

Oct 21, 2011

I have been trying to bend a larger radius on a corner bend but i can not seem to be able to . I start out with a face of 46" x 82"  i want to put a 1/2" bend up then a 1/2" bend out to make a z shape i'm using as a material .109 stainless steel and i want to end up with a 1/2" on the inside corners so that when i'm done i can flatten it out to get the proper sheer size for the piece the metal brake i'm using has a 1/2" die in thats why i trying to figure this out is their any way to put this kind of radius on the sheet metal bends.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Add A Radius In A Corner And Its Not Cooperating

Apr 12, 2012

Trying to add a radius in a corner and its not cooperating.  Take a look at this image.  Notice how the one radius curves around the part, but the other one does not?  I know these two look different because they are different sizes.  I would like to get the 1in radius to go straight across like the R3/4, but it will not do it.  I've tried the options under the chevron, but nothing gives me what I want.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Any Way To Preload Info - Bend Radius

Feb 27, 2012

Is there a way to preload information into Inventor in regards to the break press such as the dies being used or the ones available so the when the computer is deciding a bending radius,it know what tool we have?  

Currently the bend radius is set to "radius", which i am assuming is default, but I can't figure out how to change that either, and depending on the thickness it will change, but like today it said I would need a 1/16th inch radius, but we don't have a 1/16th inch die,it is an 85 degree air bending setup,and has a 4 way die with smaller and bigger openings.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Dimension Style Radius Vs Diameter

I am trying to edit my drawing template dimension style to always do a diameter (if it is a circle). Right now it defaults to radius and I manually right click and change it. I found all sorts of styles for how it displays the radius and diameter, but didn't find where to set the default.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Modifying Diameter And Radius Dimensions

Oct 23, 2012

My company is trying to Standardize all drawings produced to 1 format.  the one we are attempting to create would be in the form of: nominal upper limit^lower limit.  this is easily acheived in autocad and linear, chamfer, and hole/thread dimensions in inventor.  but radii's and diameters from a round surface (as apposed to linear diameters) we have run into a snag with.  We cannot seem to find a way to either remove the prefix symbols or be able to insert text between the symbol and tolerance.

below is a illistration of the problem and the form of the new dimensions.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Bending Sheet Metal Having Big Radius

Dec 3, 2013

We have an issue where we are trying to bend a 1mm sheet with a 24mm radius. The one side must come out 105mm wide and the flange must be 50 mm wide. inventor gives a flat pattern width of 143.4

If we bend using a brake press and a 24mm tube blade then it wont come out the right size. its like the flat pattern isn't big enough. we get the 50 mm flange but whats left over is 99 and not 105. How do we deal with something like this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Variable Radius Going Wrong Direction

Sep 6, 2012

Trying to apply a variable radius to a part. The direction of the radius is wrong (pointed back in toward the part) and I cant get it to go the other way.  As long as all the fillets along the curve are the same radius, the fillet will compute, but if I make them vary, then it fails.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Split Part

Nov 7, 2013

I 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?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheet Metal - Create Flanges On A Radius

Feb 18, 2013

The question is if I have designed a part in sheet metal with multiple flanges and one of my edges follow a specific radius. Is is possible to use contour roll or any other means to create a flange on that edge that will allow me to flatten that out. I cant see it being physically possible putting a bend in there as the material would need to stretch and the bend tool would need to follow that radius.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Customize Radius And Diameter Default Formatting?

Oct 31, 2013

The default format for a radius and diameter dimension is inserted with a prefix "R" and diameter symbol ahead of the measured dimension.  Our company standard pre-Inventor was to place either "RAD" or "DIA" after the measured dimension.  We can not seem to find anywhere in the setup to change how these type dimensions are inserted as a default or custom setting.

Can we change/customize the radius and diameter dimension formatting?

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 :: Unable To Split Solid

Mar 14, 2013

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.

The file is about 15mb.  Here is a link to it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Split All Intersecting Surfaces

Feb 7, 2013

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
