Center Of Gravity question

Hello,

I am trying to pinpoint the center of gravity on a curved face of an assembly. I can use the c og G command to get the true center of gravity but i would like to incorporate lifting eyes into the finished assembly. Basically I need to know how to find the C of G on a given surface. I have attached the assembly I am working on and added lifting eyes roughly where I would like them. I have tried measuring from the C of G to a face and then creating the lug above the C of G but somehow it dosent line up.

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thank you

 

Gavin

An assembly file (*.iam) is only a list of hyperlinks to the part files (*.ipt) and a record of assembly constraints (and a bit more).

You must include the part files.

Hello,

Thanks for helping me out again. I apologise for my incompetence but this is
a big jump for me to inventor and its tough going with no classes available
here. Working hard to learn as I go.

I have attached the part files.

Regards

Did you rename files?

Your assembly file is a hyperlink record to the part files.

If you rename the files - the hyperlinks are broken.
