hello to all, I press that I use solidworks and that I am helping/affiancando my son in a pre-maturity task (I do not hide that the thing interests me very much too).

task: to create a simple hydraulic cylinder with at least 10 configurations to put online .. (end of the indication ... and also explanations .. :( )

we tried to download "configurator360" on his inventor2021-student and watch some yt videos, interesting product but we were immediately drowned because it seems that the subscription to "https://configurator360.autodesk.com" but the answer is "impossible to create a new configurator 360 account" ..
in fact it seems that configurator 360 has been released recently...
have we made a mistake or is it really impossible to create a new account?
What are the alternatives, if there are, to complete the task?
 
Perhaps I am wrong, but in my opinion the teacher asks to model a simple cylinder whose 10 different configurations can be: alesage, stem diameter, stem attack, melt attack, etc.
do ten previews (img) of configurations and related step files; in practice it is as if you present your product on the web, then create an html page by inserting the images with its link to the 3d step file.
Can it be?

if the request is of an online configurator, then of autodesk there is theproduct design & manufacturing collection/automazione and, since you use solidworks there is drive works proIf you don't know him already.

Hello and thank you,
drive works "base" I tried years ago without any satisfaction, maybe the pro works better. .

product design & manufacturing collection instead I did not understand if it will lead to be able to configure the cylinders online: You know if that's possible? I saw video for parameterization, but I did not find tutorials on whether and how to "push" everything online available to prof and customers ...
Can you help me again?
 
explain to the professor that sometimes even professors must be updated:

Configurator 360 | Product Configuration Software | Autodesk

Configurator 360 is no longer available for new subscriptions. Forge Design Automation API is an alternate technology that will help automate everything from small repetitive tasks to entire product development processes.
www.autodesk.com
know that forge is not free and you have to know the web development that recalls the functions of inventor.
otherwise do all models and publish it on https://a360.autodesk.com/ (I don't know if it's free)
 
autodesk is very detailed information park on product design & manufacturing collection but I would say that with fusion 360 you will be able to achieve your purpose. in this regard you can look at webinar but being a new product, if you want more detailed and certain information, I suggest you contact a self-desk distributor.

thanks, in fact also from the webinar you do not understand much ... so many beautiful photos and graphics, render, but if it is possible and how to create and put online "configurator"

We continue the search ..
 
if you registered to view the webinar, you will certainly receive an email from the product marketing manager of autodesk jim byrne, with a button: talk to an expert. you can use this medium to inform you if the new product has the requirements to meet your needs or make the request directly to jim answering its message.
 
to configure a product in various versions you can use iassembly (or ilogic) but the passage to publish it on the web I don't know exactly how to do
I saw a webinar on ilogic in which they said that after creating the configurator it was possible to place it on a website but obviously they did not say how to do it.
 
hello to all, let's say that, since the prof did not know how to get the online configurator required ... for my son they solved with configurations just...

but I care no matter what, I wrote, indeed I wrote to my son to autodesk but still have not answered ..

from the few feedback here and in general on the net, it seems to me that it is not possible with the pure inventor but that it requires apps or extra software package. is a technique used by solidworks: I'll show you the glitter and then find out it's only feasible if you live on mars (and obviously you pay salt for it)

In any case, if anyone comes to mind a solution, I am all ears;-p
 
hi this is the link of autodesk forge: https://forge.autodesk.com/of course it is a fee, it does everything a little because already inside of the scripts that you can recall in order to collaborate different databases (e.g. model something that has prices, load on forge, he takes the discounts related to that customer from the corporate db and gives you the price). I can also create axial configurations or parts to be published automatically.
attention: better to turn to the dealer of turn because alone I do not know how feasible it is.
It is necessary to know how to plan and know what are the routines already present and which, for example, read directly the rules ilogic and transmit them to the virtual model on forge. then pay also the space used (besides the software). This is what I understood: trusting is good, not trusting is better
 
I add:
autodesk forge, the development platform for the “future of making things”
forge ecosystem includes a series of apis (application program interface) and sdks (software development kit)
that make possible the development of the most various applications from those for viewing and presentation of
3d models, to those that transform 2d images into 3d models. In essence, it establishes links between
design, engineering, visualization, collaboration, production and work flow, developing what
autodesk calls “future of making things”
the features of autodesk forge
inside the forge you can find a viewer, which allows the display of 3d and 2d files and that also allows
to comment, emphasize and measure. forge includes bee derivative models, which allow to obtain output
viewer displayable from over 60 cad file formats and extract metadata on models and individual objects within
of the model. Other bees included concern design automation, to optimize repetitive design activities, and
reality capture, to convert digital images into point clouds or mesh with high resolution textures.
to use autodesk forge features each customer needs cloud credit. the number of cloud credit
necessary varies from operation in operation and you can buy up to a maximum of 5000 credits. attention
However: credits purchased but not used expire after a year after purchase. if, for example, you need to display
a file in the forge viewer, this file must first be transformed into the format readable by the bee. to transform
a file, the cost is 1.5 cloud credit for revit files or navisworks and 0.2 for files of all other software.

Direct purchase aautodesk: forge platform access + 100 cloud credits annual subscription to be renewed by user meccania = € 115,00
