I wanted to learn how to use inventor (in the company release2010) I work with autocad 2010 and today I do everything with it, modeling 3d, rendering, bending, explaining... with all the operations. is it possible to import, for example, a conical of a helical scale designed in 3d (solid) autocad and to "explain it in inventor?

Yes, if the solid is actually "solid" (closed, but at most you can close it after), and of constant thickness, importing it in sheet mode.

p.s.: I see that it is your first message, it is good to present yourself in the appropriate section before they tell you the mods: http://www.cad3d.it/forum1/showthread.php?t=132&page=39
 
I wanted to add that the interchangeability of files between autocad and inventor is just satisfied by dwg files! remember that if you work with inventor you can decide to use the .idw file, identical but with more performance than .dwg! dwg enjoys greater interchangeability while the idw file enjoys greater performance!:finger:

I'm sorry.
p.s. I also bought the prunieri guide, but I can't shape the solid, I have to import it as .ipt,right? I can't see the stationary reference pointing to me, needing to "explain" the conscientious, should I create one myself (e.g. a plan? )?

excuse me list the biggest performance of the idw?:confused:

we can create a file that will serve for a cam! if it is created as idw automatically converts to sats, in a few clicks! If you create a file in dwg and want to allocate it to a cam you will have to do: right-click on a source view in the logical tree, from the drop-down menu you will choose insert in model space.... say that it is too laborious the dwg compared to the idw! :finger:

si .ipt but you should try in the sheet metal context!:wink:
 
for questions of time, not having dimesticity, not drawing with inventor, is it possible to create from this example, a flat model with inventor? If you like?...with autocad I have to "explain" everything "manually" and beyond precision, I lose especially, more time.thanks a thousand,

You could, but not with the .dwg extension! both in inventor and in any other software you can safely do, but you have to export it as .dxf. in export the file will be understandable to all cad, will lose typical features of a software with which it was created, you will always have to go to recover it and in addition you should know that invetor treats the functions of blindfold (fold) as feature, so you can only do it when it will be a .ipt file but sheet metal. to make you understand the .dwg file is native to autocad, the .ipt file but sheet metal in which you can do everything you want is native to inventor!
 
the import can also be done with the dwg, without necessarily converting to dxf, the problem is that the helid is not "perfect", there are points where the modeling is not to constant thickness (probably it is not a mistake of yours, but of interchange between files) and then, the development is not feasible (I also tried to change it but I failed successfully). However from zero in inventor with a banal rectangle and a helical processing in sheet metal environment and development is beautiful and done (proven).
 
Another thing, I ask a mod to move the last messages into a new discussion as we have now arrived beyond the o... :

I think we're saying the same thing but differently! :wink:

Sorry but being new to the forum, I would like to ask you a question! What does that mean to you? :confused:
 
What has been done... created a new discussion with the last arguments as they were not inherent in the title of the discussion in which we were

bhof,
Meanwhile a cam, but to work on what machine?
on a milling machine, maybe you'd like the Iges... on a two-axis machine you just need a dxf; then dwg -> save by name-> dxf.
or, with 3 clicks you the cable.
Then, the sat conversion of an idw never made it.
Can you explain how you do it? :biggrin:
