We take a look at making our factory assets more intelligent by working with parameters. In this example I create clearance zones for a CNC machine. Adding this peice of information will aid me detecting possible clearance problems within my design.
Have you ever wanted to stretch a part to fit into a range of sizes. This example shows how to create a template part that will “stretch” to fit into different assembled sizes.
I was recently requested to come up with a basic demo for a customer to show how Inventor could use iParts or in the customer words a family of parts. So i created the basic demo using custom parameters, iParts and a simple table in the drawing that will automatically update when the active iPart is choosen for the drawing view. The video will cover 3 areas of Inventor that has many uses. Enjoy!!!
Today I take a look at linking excel to your Inventor part models. I show how create your excel sheet and link the parameters inside of your models to the spreadsheet itself. I also have a little bonus material for your part list descriptions. Take a look.
I am going to take a look at writing a rule within iLogic that is going to allow me to control minimum and maxium values for a given parameter. The best part is I can take advantage of the rules wizard found within iLogic to basically write the rule for me.
