Brief explanations and step-by-step tutorials help you to learn Autodesk Inventor quickly and easily. The proceeding chapters will cover additional tools related to part modelling, assemblies, sheet metal design, and drawings. This process gives you an overview of the design process and provides a strong base to learn additional tools and techniques. It starts with creating parts of an Oldham Coupling Assembly, assembling them, and then creating print ready drawings. Please notice that the tricky Circular Pattern tool won’t let you do the trick, I think that’s just a shortcut tool for straight circular patterns only (ellipsis are not tollerated).Īlso, this procedure can be applied to any shape or line, not being constrained to the elliptical trajectory itself.This tutorial book helps you to get started with Autodesk's popular 3D modeling software using step-by-step tutorials. I leave here a figure to help you guys with different language packs of Inventor. Once you hit OK the magic should be done. using the rectangular pattern tool, select the feature, then select the ellipse (step 2) in the sketch as the “direction 1”, expand dialogue window (bottom right corner button), select “direction 1” radio button under orientation, set the parameters and don’t forget to set a direction 1 start point.
create a centered, constrained elliptical shape ģ. create feature to be patternized, say a hole with all the parameters you need Ģ. The hack itself is really basics, but you might just pass by never noticing. The dialogue window of the “rectangular pattern” tool
According to my collegue opinion, the only way would have been design each center point by hand. At one point we find ourselves in need of replicate a pattern (some kind of hole feature) on an elliptical line. I got stuck in this issue while working on an Autodesk Inventor 2015 project with a collegue of mine.
