Autodesk Inventor Technology Preview - iCopy

- Sometimes he even impresses himself. In this episode of Rob Unscripted, Autodesk Technical Evangelist Rob Cohee utilizes new functionality available on Autodesk Labs called iCopy. The Autodesk Inventor iCopy Technology Preview will enable you to make multiple copies of an assembly that automatically resize to fit your design. iCopy creates and inserts multiple instances of the assembly, automatically adjusting the size and shape of each occurrence based on your functional requirements. As usual Rob puts a little something extra into this series, and this one will surely not disappoint.
We provide our customers the most powerful BIM and Digital Prototyping tools available today and at a price that has put CAD on the desktop of almost every engineer / designer in all engineering disciplines. You and I might not see eye to eye on the advantages of all trades informing and evolving a single digital model, but it is my belief that many do see the vision and are able to experience designs previously unattainable. Best of luck to you as well.
Wow...This tutorial shows the potential for facade industry to consider Inventor Seriously.
We look forward more videos on facade industry. Can u try for facade panel production drawing using inventor?
For the other noobs (like me)... the "measure" could be accomplished from within the pattern command. It is available from the spacing flyout and you could quickly divide the full distance into equal lites (you'll need to consider what the lines represent in relation to your corners or mid-rails) by adding the "divided by" symbol... / ... after the value you measure. Hope this helps someone to save a step. We're all in this together!
SketchUp is a geometry creation tool where Autodesk Inventor is an engineering tool. FEA, Part Libraries (750,000+ standard components), Sheet Metal part creation and flat patterns, Tube and Pipe, Cable Harness, Document in 2D DWG directly from the 3D model. I could go on and on, and that's not being biased - just honest.
I'm not the one who made a comment on Screen Names...it was you which prompted my response. Why would you follow my screen name with "LOL"? Who's immature here? Pretty obvious. "IF" you asked why I use that screen name, I would have told you that I use 3D Studio MAX... That's where the "MAX" comes from...not trying to insinuate that my work is the best there is - just a play on the software I use.
You like to play the victim card nice so, clarification was necessary for all those reading this.
Great tip! And absolutely - were all in this together..
You definately need to look at Autodesk Revit Architecture. It does for buildings many of the things I said that Inventor does for mechanical design.
Great Video ! Can provide tutorial for insert the model into Revit model ??
Mr. Cohee, thanks for your great presentation about icopy. I have a question and world appreciate that you can answer.
Why many of us can not use your method to duplicate the icopy objection as you did? We all can not select the curtain wall unit for feature patterning! Please help.
Sure you can create 3D solids with SketchUp, but is it the right size, can you create 2D DWG's from the model, can you test the strength or fatigue of a part in an assembly while in motion? That's the difference between a geometry creation tool and an engineering tool.
Good job, would you please go ahead and use frame generator to create that icopy frame then make the bill of material for all that curtain wall, this would help to encourage bosses to get the software.
Wow
Very nice Video. I would like to lern more about inventor. Do u offer courses
Can you post a link to the video where you set up the panel?
Lol - all class dude. It's spelled Autodesk. No spaces or capital D for future reference.
Sweet action! Can Inventor Pro help with analyizing the weight of the assembly, windloads and negative pressures so anchoring can be engineered without WAGging? Inside and outside corners regions are of special interest.
I've just watched your video and have a somewhat related question. What are the specs of your computer? Our firm just had a "Rendering Computer" built for a specific job and it creeps. This particular model has some iCopy parts to the sum of about 3200. It takes about 30 minutes to update each change. It took the entire weekend to build one wall. I've been trying to convey to upper management that there is something extremely wrong, or that maybe the company we use for our IT might have used the wrong components. I highly doubt this is the norm. I watched your video and typed out this comment and it is still trying to load my last change that I implemented about 15 minutes ago.
iCopy creates new parts for you. It ads an _(#) to the new part created making it easy to ID. Then I can utilize Vault to rename the files that become production parts.
hi Rob, I don't know if you are still checking the post here, I didn't see new video from you in quite a while... In the video you pattern your icopy assembly, when I try to do it, I can't select the icopy for the pattern command, i'm using inventor 2014, any idea why this doesn't work?
Sketchup is for kids, Inventor is prosauce.
So, if what I wanted to do is architectural elevations and things of that sort - Inventor is not the thing for me? That is really what I'm looking to do. I have Max/Viz...I was looking for a simpler modeling vehicle. Thoughts?
can you please post the tutorial on how you built your curtain panel? i've created my panel using the frame generator tool and i've realised that its using up a lot of my pc's processing power to place them. After placing my icopy component, i can't apply a pattern to array the component. Am I doing anything wrong?
and is there a way of arraying them along the same plane. because the icopy tutorials that i have seen is arraying them in the perpendicular direction
i need to learn how to make curtain wall modulation just like that. can anyone help
OK...I know you're biased...but can you be "Candid" and tell me why Inventor is better/easier than using SketchUp Pro? I haven't tried Inventor but I use SU professionally with great results...but inventor is making me scratch my head. Your thoughts?....
hi robcohee... thanks for this video... this is really what im looking for in my field of work... i would like to know where can i find the complete video link showing the curtain wall assembly panel with the parameters which you've just shown. thanks.
the video of the panel template you mentioned in 6:40... thanks.
Have you been able to find the second video?
Hello Mr. Robcohee, I want to use this frame generator facility for structural drawings. Can you kindly let me know how can i do that?
this guy is good^^
Hi Robcohee,
Could you please show mw how to make Contraint icopy with point specified.
Thanks.
Rob, Does Autocad pay for your coffee? Do they offer Decaf? Did you have a time constraint for this video?
Excellent nonetheless.
Thanks!
@RenderingsToTheMAX wow, nice.. my nick dosent have anything to do with my thoughts.. i wont be replying any pms or respone from you. unmature-guy
@RenderingsToTheMAX lol?
is it free?
you're beefing about RTTM when your account name is "Kinglevel"...? A bit pompous wouldn't you say..."King...level"...
You give special meaning to the saying, "Comments are like a-holes, everyone's got them and they all stink!"
