Hello, guys.
I recently joined the forum and wanted to congratulate everyone for the availability.
I'm using inventor 2010 and I can't explain the design I've attached, I'd like to understand why inventor doesn't make me explain it.
I hope I understand where the mistake is.

thanks in advance

hi, when you place a autocad file always save it in a previous version (e.g.2004) so you're sure that anyone can open it, not all of us have updated software to the latest version.
 
Sure, it's like tarkus says, there's no bent rays. but did you model it in inventor in sheet metal environment?

I don't know inventor (I have sent me the 2010 30-day trial, as soon as I have time I try it and maybe I will address this section of the forum:smile:), but I answer you based on how swx works (and a little all 3d I think).
If that piece you drew it in autocad as it is and then you claim to feed it as it is at a cad 3d waiting for you to develop immediately, mistakes conceptually on departure.
simply because that is not a sheet, the cad sees it as any imported solid, so it has no development.
you will have to tell him to turn it into sheet metal (if you have the sheet-metal module also inventor will have a similar command, no?), at that point you will have all the sheet metal processing available. . always that the starting piece you have built/shaped it properly that the cad can recognize it as sheet metal. check these things by consulting the online guide of the program.

But since you have to open it with inventor, I would tell you to let go of autocad and draw it directly into inv, which would be the most logical thing. at least you do it right away as sheet and avoid double, useless and counterproductive work.

Thanks again for all the answers......the detail made with autocad, actually there is no bending radius, looking at the file that sent the tree friend I think it is correct as on the piege there are rays. At this point I wonder how you put the rays in my design? You could let me know which commands are to perform these functions. I'm not an expert but I have to complete this job.

Plus I'm trying to open the file sent by tree in the metal sheet of autocad, it also makes me select it but then when the hourglass stops you don't see any drawing on the page.
What am I underestimating?


I continue to thank you and if you find yourself sometimes from the parts of napoli contact me that I offer you a nice pizza... thank you
 
Well, if you've made the autocad 3d piece, I don't think you're having any trouble getting a connection. I simply added 2mm radius fittings to the inner edges and 3.5 mm (2+ thickness 1.5) to the outer ones.
the problem is that autocad has no functions of sheetmetal, in fact stefanobruno surely will have imported the 3d in inventor and then exported again the flat model in dwg.
So, since you're early, listen to the sampom board and do everything directly in inventor.
 
ok I understood cpome insert the rays to the particoalri.... then I tried with inventor to explain it but without any result, it shows me that it elaborates it but at the end of the processing is equal to before without any modification or explanation.
As far as the heralization of the new details is concerned, I will try to use the inventor directly, but I have a lot of details previously realized not by me that it would be crazy to give them back. I would be comfortable to change these and be able to turn them into paino with sheet metal....what do you think it is possible to do it? I think I do, but I need help.... thank you.

mha, often you do first to remake..... case by case....
 
I'm sure it's like you say... but now it's becoming a matter of princio... .

Sorry, but when I try to lconvert it with sheet metal, it gives me this message:

for proper unfolding, the model should have uniform tickness equal to model
parameter. please set the proper tickness in the sheet metal styles to match
your model

If I understand correctly, is my particoalre dictate that my party has different thicknesses somewhere?

If you don't have a command that uniforms everything to me?
and how did he turn him back yesterday?

Thank you very much
 
No... is not telling you that the piece has different thicknesses but is telling you that the thickness of the particular must be the same that is set in the styles of sheet metal.
then in inventor you have to edit the sheet style and put 1.5 mm thick.

I'm sorry, I see you're in the first place, so it's hard to answer the questions you ask since you don't have that minimum of knowledge you need.
Why don't you try to do some practice? There are tutorials also under the online guide of inventor, at least in Italian versions there are, I also think in the English version... .

I simply exported from autocad in sat and opened in inventor.
converted into sheet metal, set the thickness of the sheet and generated the figure in explained sheet metal.
is easier to do than to explain.
if you haven't solved in the meantime ask, and we will proceed with a detailed explanation.

Bye.

Thank you guys...
I have succeeded, what I faint is the curved rays, in fact if I impose them well and expose the dwg as .sat invetor explains it quietly.
Is there a rule to reposition for the setting of the rays?


Thank you.
 
Usually the minimum bending radius is equal to the thickness of the sheet, however the important thing is that the sheet is of the same thickness always (parlo per autocad ).I would first do to do some exercises in inventor to understand well the sheetmetal environment.Also remember always that you have to set the parameters of the sheet metal environment before starting to model or import anything.
