Good morning yall!
I was wondering if anyone could offer me some guidance here. Let's simplify my problem and product and say I am building a simple metal door frame with a door inside. This frame will start as standard dimensions but can be changed to any dimensions. I can handle that change with parameters and force the frame to change it's size automatically.
My problem is with the door. In the past, we've accumulated a good number of part numbers representing doors of different sizes. What's the best way to list those all as options and automatically see if one fits before creating a new one? I feel like this is a common manufacturing scenario but I couldn't find any other discussion or articles about it.
Thanks!
Not directly, having Inventor swap-out components based on sizes. You might look at iLogic and create a number of drop-down boxes with set sizes and then have Inventor use the "door" mapped to the size.
