AutoCAD Inventor :: Flat Pattern For Hopper

Nov 17, 2011

I have designed a hopper using the lofted flange command.  It is a 24" sq going to an 8" diameter.  I would like to apply the rip feature to make (4) separate sections for this hopper so that (4) separate pieces can be cut on a waterjet machine.  I can make it so that only (2) flat patterns are required, (2) pieces cut for each.

Can this be done in Inventor 2011? Also, can you recommend a good book on Sheetmetal in Inventor?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Making Hopper To Dispense Sand - Sheet Metal Lofts / Shapes

Aug 8, 2013

I am making a hopper to dispense sand, but I can't figure out the process to make the shape I want. I thought it would be easy! This is pretty much the first sheet metal part I've tried to make apart from easy tutorial things. I'm OK at normal parts.

I've mocked up the rough shape I want from a normal extruded part (attached). I've also attached the start of a folded version. I've had lots of attempts and none of them have really got anywhere.

How can I make this??

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change BOM Style In Welded Assembly?

Jun 13, 2012

I declared a BOM as "indivisible" when I converted an assembly to a welded assembly and currently I need to show the BOM as "Only parts" to insert it in a drawing. There is any way to convert the BOM style?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Plates Assembled And Welded - How To Treat Box As A Part

Nov 15, 2011

I have a bunch of plates.  The plates get welded to make a box and sent for stress-relieving. The box comes back and gets machined before it gets more parts added to make another assembly.

How is the best way to handle this in Inventor?

So far, I have created individual parts for each side of my box as each side is unique.  Then I have created an assembly bringing together each part (at this point I have not made any welding on my assembly).  Then I created another assembly to bring in my box to machine.  I have noticed that the feature "thread" to create a NPT hole is not available in assembly.

After the plates are assembled and welded to make a box, I would like to treat the box as a part no longer as an assembly.  Can it be done that way?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sample Line Volume Report And Surface Volume Give Different Quantities

Jun 18, 2012

I'm working with TIN surfaces, doing cut/fill comparisons for a surface mine.

My volume surface statistics show a cut volume of 5167.22 cy and fill volume of 8456.18 cy.

The sample line group volume report show cumulative cut of 5527.67 cy and fill of 8465.56 cy.

What could be some causes of this disparity. All reference surfaces are built from points and use a non-destructive boundary.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: SSA Storage Volume Is Double Of Pondpack Volume

Apr 24, 2013

I want to use it as my primary hydrologic and hydraulic modeler.  It only makes sense.  Well, I got the program to work and had things linked in and was able to route a storm through the network.  But when I routed the storms, I had to model double the storage that i expected.

So I went back to the program I'm familiar with - Pondpack by Benltey - and designed the same system I routed in SSA in that program - and got the storage volume that I would expect for a site of this size - about 2 acres.

Is there possibly a setting that I'm missing that makes my outlet structures route slower or less than they should?  Or is there some other reason that a system would give this kind of inflated need for storage?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Volume Boundary Creates Incorrect Volume

Feb 25, 2013

I have an issue with using Bounded Volume or Adding a Boundary to Volume Surface things so bad... = incorrect volumes.. sometimes extremely incorrect.. I understand that the surface rectangle when a boundary is added but this could be horrible if not checked.

3ds Max Modeling :: TurboSmooth Artifacts On Welded Edges

Aug 15, 2012

When I use the TurboSmooth modifier I get artifacts that you can see in the upper red rectangle of the second picture. Is this due to the former welding process that I used or is it just a geometry issue?

Furthermore I get a shape that`s supposed to be a nice 'round' surface. Probably it's just putting in some more vertecies? (second picture, lower rectangle)

For better understanding I attached the before and after pics with mesh turned on.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get Correct Volume

Oct 26, 2012

With Inventor 2013 , user can view iProperties > Physical > Volume. After UPDATE is clicked, the application seems to recalucate and display mass information.  How do I accomplish this task with API? I tried looping through all Occurrence objects, then access MassProperties.Volume, but the numbers do not match what I got from the Inventor application.  The API seems to give me the Volume before the model construction (add parts, extrusions etc.) I need volumes after the final assembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Calculating Total Volume

Apr 11, 2012

I want to know if it is possible to calculate the water displacement volume of an assembly if it were immersed in water.

In other words,  I want to create a file in which ALL hollow spaces inside structural members, valves, pipework etc are assumed to be solid so that when that assembly is dropped in water, the total volume of water being displaced will be equal to the iProperty value for volume.  I know its possible to hole patch when creating a shrinkwrap,  but this is only effective for 'circular' hollow spaces and does not fill obscure or rectangular shaped empty volumes.

Premiere Pro :: Control (monitor) Volume Using Computer Volume Controls

Feb 4, 2014

I'm no longer able to control the PP (monitor) volume using my computer volume controls. I've always controlled the monitor volume using my computer volume levels, but starting today, that has changed.
 
The volume is just playing at the level recorded with no way for me to turn down or up.I performed a disc repair and that didn't solve the problem.

Here comes the problem:

when i was changing the volume parameter, i recieved an error that this property was read-only.is it possible te use the volume calculation from inventor the calculate back to the diameter or height? ,and also for a solid body?

If so, what do i need to do? I am using inventor 2013 (basic).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Body Volume To Be Assigned To Parameter?

Sep 26, 2012

how to set a custom parameter to be equal with a body volume, assuming I have a multibody part.

I have found how to assign total volume of the part to a parameter using iLogic rule.:

Total_Volume = iProperties.Volume

and that's it.

You can do it also for a component in an assembly , but can't see how to do it for a body...

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Use API To Highlight Exact Interference Volume Location

Jan 22, 2013

When you use Inventor command "Inspect" -->"Analyze Interference" command to analyze interference of two component, it not only gives you the interference volume, but also highlight the interference volume area to exactly identify it, as shown in the attached screen shot.

We want to implement this interference analyze using API. But the API sample (in AssemblyComponentDefinition.Analyze Interference Method)  only gives the way to highlight the two interfering component occurrences and the interference volume, but there is no way to know where they exact interfere. So how to highlight the the interference location as in the inventor command?  or does inventor exposes this function to API?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Filename / Directory Name Or Volume Label Syntax Is Incorrect

Nov 30, 2011

"The filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect. The database in K;lah/blahlah.widget.ipt* could not be saved".It's nothing to do with an improper name; even saving as the default 'Part 3' doesn't work.

At the moment I'm limping by using Save Copy As. Neither Save not Save As work at all.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Find Interior Volume Of Assembly By Subtracting Assembly From Block

Apr 23, 2012

I am trying to find the interior volume of an assembly (when am I not?!?!) by subtracting the assembly from a block that surrounds the most of it.  Somewhere the assembly has a "leak" and I have been trying to use the Cross Section Analysis to track down where the inside lump is connected to the outside lump to be subtracted.  Is there a less time consuming way to dynamically drag a plane across and get cross sectional views?

Even better is there a simple way to animate the analysis plane moving across the block so I can hopefully just watch and pause it when I find a leak?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Curved Surface - How To Increase Volume Of Surface At Certain Points Only

Apr 10, 2013

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?
