  1. Assemblies in Inventor Advanced Manufacturing Spring 2014

  2. What are Assemblies? • Assemblies are collections of parts along with information about how they go together • Assemblies let you take multiple simple part files and combine them into one larger piece • Assemblies MAKE YOUR WORK EASIER

  3. Getting Started • Create a project file • Create a new assembly file • Place and constrain parts

  4. What you can do with assemblies • Create more complex objects • Import parameters • Create parts based on other parts • Animate and simulate

  5. Assembly Constraints • Assembly constraints • Mate/align • Angle • Tangent • Insert • Symmetry

  6. Your assignment • Model a hinge • Go to www.mcmaster.com, scroll down to “Hinges”, and find a hinge that you will model – choose one that is not symmetric • When you select the hinge, you can get 2D drawings of the hinge for measurements • Create a folder – call it “yourlastnamepartnumber” • Create a project file – call it “yourlastnamepartnumber” • Create part files • You will be expected to model efficiently – don’t use an excessive number of features, and use named dimensions where appropriate • You should create at least one part from within the assembly • Create assembly from part files - save it as “yourlastnamepartnumber” • This assignment will be worth 30 points • 15 points for a good representation of your chosen hinge • 10 points for an efficiently modeled part • 5 points for an appropriate choice of hinge • 5 point deduction for improper file setup • Due at end of next class – will be collected on a flash drive
