AutoCAD Inventor :: Converting Step Files For Mechanical Desktop?

Feb 7, 2012

I have a problem with some step files I recieved from a vendor for an assembly.  Basically what is happening is I download the step file. Then bring it into Mechanical Desktop.  When brought into Mechanical desktop, it is downloaded in metric where my entire assembly is in standard/english format.  What I did when I had Inventor 2011 is bring the step file into inventor, go to document settings and switch the unit to inch from mm.  Then save the step file and when I brought it into Mechanical desktop it was in the correct unit and scale.

Now with 2012 Inventor, when I bring the step file in, it is automatically in english/standard format.  So I save the step file out and try to open it in Mechanical desktop only to have the file back into mm and 25.4x the actual size it should be.

how to save the step file out like in 2011 to make sure the unit is saved in the correct format.  This is extremely aggrevating and waste of time.  I would have had the part reverse engineered by now if i quit trying to use the vendors standard step files.

This problem doesn't only happen with a certain vendor's drawings either, it goes for all step files I have recieved since getting Inventor2012.

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?

AutoCAD Inventor :: DXF Translator Macro

May 24, 2013

When I am done with a drawing (inventor .dwg), I manually go to "Save Copy As" and select DXF, and using my default options, save the drawing as a DXF on a server (OUTSIDE of vault) that our shop guys can access for CNC stuff. I understand there is a DXF Translator that I may be able to set to do this for me. How to use Inventor add-ins (my translator is loaded, thats as far as I got) or set them as macros. A button on the ribbon to export to DXF would be nice and I may also want to automate this further and have it do it on file save.

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.
