AutoCAD Inventor :: Show Detailed Drawings Of All Weldments Onto One Drawing Sheet?

Jun 18, 2012

How do I show detailed drawings of all weldments onto one drawing sheet? I have created a weldment assembly of various pipes attached together and would like to create shop drawings.  Please see attached picture for model tree.  I can't seem to bring in seperate views of each of the pipes on the same drawing sheet for proper detailing. Do I have to do something before making the assembly or afterwards to get those views?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Machining On Parts Within Weldments?

Oct 9, 2013

I have a weldment file containg a 12" i beam with a small plate welded to the top of the beam. I have to machine that plate down to its finished thickness and punch a hole thru others. I use the machining button and remove my material with no issues. The problem comes when I launch the part the machining is not reflected at the part level. Do I need do have 2 versions (2 files)  of the part machined/unmachined? I am sure this is a common practice within Inventor. See attached .jpg for clarity.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Proxy Of Workplane Inside Pattern / Inside Part / Inside An Assembly

Oct 14, 2013

There are many examples of creating rectangular patterns, but not many, if any, of interrogating existing patterns.I have attached the files and a screenshot of a rectangular part inside an assembly. The part contains a rectangular pattern of holes and workplanes.how do I get hold of each proxy of the workplane in the pattern?In other words I don't know what to put in the for loop at the end of this code fragment:
 
If _invApp.Documents.Count = 0 Then MsgBox("Need to open an the assembly document") ReturnEnd If If _invApp.ActiveDocument.DocumentType <> DocumentTypeEnum.kAssemblyDocumentObject Then MsgBox("Need to have an Assembly document active") ReturnEnd If Dim asmDoc As Assembly Document asmDoc = _invApp.ActiveDocument Dim asmDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition asmDef = asmDoc.ComponentDefinition im occurrences As ComponentOccurrencesoccurrences.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Suppress Weldments / Preparations In 2D Drawing?

Mar 4, 2013

I have a weldment that shows all the preparations and weld beads in 3D.  I need to detail out this weldment without the preparations/welds applied already. 

I can't seem to find a way to suppress these features in the 2D drawing without going back to the weldment file and suppressing those features individually.

Can you force Inventor to ignore preparations and weld features in a 2D drawing?  When I do my callouts for welds, I can't have it showing the weld/preparations in the drawing itself.

I created the drawing file using the weldment file as the base view.  Running latest version of Inventor Pro.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Unselecting Fillets

Mar 22, 2012

Is there another way to retract fillets?  I've tried the ctrl, shift, and both at once.  None of those key selections did nothing with my 3D drawing.  Is there something I could do in my settings to adjust this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Fillets On Complex Shapes

Feb 28, 2013

I have a shape that happens to have many nodes; it was simple to extrude it (inventor saw it as a complete shape) but adding fillets is another story. each tiny segment requires a click to select it. is there any way to simplify this — either through simplifying the path somehow or by selecting the edge in some other manner? 

i saw a thread on the forums about imported 2d vector files with a similar issue. I did import my file but it came from rhino. everything is fine except this one issue. i guess i could go back to rhino but i would prefer not to.

i have attached a small screenshot of one area of my sketch.

AutoCad :: How To Draw A Dotted Line To Show Pin Inside Boxtubing

Apr 10, 2012

I am new to Autocad and I want to learn as much as I can. I am working on a drawing of a wheel and a 40mm pin that is inside of some boxtubing. I would like to draw a dotted line to show the pin inside the boxtubing. I click properties and I only get the choices of layer , block and continious . I have Autocad Lite 2005.

Also, I love the dimension tool , but how do I know how wide or long I am making it until I do my dimension , and then it is too short or too long. It don't seem like there is a way to edit it. I know it is.

AutoCad :: Isometric Drawing And Fillets

Nov 6, 2012

I recently started drawing in cad, and i have a couple problems. At time now i am trying to learn more of isometric drawing and i have couple questions about drawing a particular figure:

21.jpg

So in there i don't know how to draw that "thing" witch i highlighted in red. I don't know at witch angle i should draw it's center(center length should be 50 cm). If I would know that, i could easily draw a isocircle above. So how do i find this "right" angle?

Second question would be about isofillets - i read here in forums that i should do them in isocircles, and i did that and i got good results - it looks very good, but the problem is, that in this drawing, it shows that those isocircles should have a defined radius - R6, R16 and etc, but if i do round corners with isocircles, i dont get that result(in R16 case radius is even way too big). So maybe there is a way to do them "right" and have them defined? I attached that drawing .

AutoCad 3D :: Solid Loosing Fillets During PDF Export

Mar 22, 2013

I'm using AutoCAD 2010 32bit on Windows XP with built-in video - so no hardware rendering, etc. I have a situation where a 3D solid that I have created looses its fillets while creating a PDF.

The solid was built using Union, Subtraction, Slicing and Fillet operations. I have attached the DWG and two PDFs - one with fillets, the other without. Both PDFs were created within moments of each other from the same DWG. Notice in the DWG that the solid model has now lost all the fillets on the edges, but they were there when the good PDF was generated. I create the PDFs using ACAD's Output | Export PDF feature on a single Layout in Paperspace. When the PDF is generating, for about two seconds you see the solid edges loose their fillets, and then sometimes return to normal, but other times the DWG changes and I have to add the fillets again.

I know about using the Print option, and also 3rd PDF generators but they also fail - plus, I want to use Output because it's more convenient. I like AutoCAD, but I am thinking of dumping it for SolidWorks (which I just evaluated for 30 days). I can't be putting a lot of time into models that loose their fillets. This same issue happened to me about a year ago, and I finally had to re-create the model from scratch to solve. It's ridiculous that this doesn't work, it's kinda fundamental.

BTW: I tried a fresh OS and ACAD install and the problem persists.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Sectioning And Dimensioning Fillets

Jun 3, 2013

I would like to place arrowheads on the vertical sectioning lines (for the hatched view on the right), as well as on the horizontal line (for the bottom view), but I couldn't succeed in doing this. So, I left it just as line without arrowheads. Also, I would like to know if there are options for dimensioning fillets, as the one in my drawing comes with round symbol of portion of circle upon which the arrowhead touch (instead of on the fillet itself) - see R.12 and R.50.
