Fillet between Arcs using 2D Fillet : Inventor

bhavarkumavat — Thu, 28 Feb 2019 07:58:17 GMT

Hello,

I have a problem in understanding the 2D Fillet tool in Inventor , If I try to create a fillet between 2 arcs/circles , Inventor does not allows me to do so , I tried the same sketch in a different software (Please refer to the Image : Mastercam.jpg) , it allowed me to create the fillets which I have highlighted in the image with red color , However if I try to do the same thing in Inventor it wont allow me to do so

Please let me know if I am understanding Inventor Fillet Tool in a wrong way or there is a work around or it can be done using the 2D Fillet tool.

Thank You for providing me an opportunity to write on this forum,

Thank You,

Simply add a Tangent Arc.

i see other problems in you Sketch- I recommend that you Attach your file here.

Hello,

Thank You for your reply , I tried using the Tangent Arc but it does not fits well in the Sketch i.e If I add that the other 2 arcs change their positions.

I have attached the file , An example would be great for me to understand (For the Tangent Arc). I am trying to get a radius of 5mm between those arcs. I have added a screenshot of mcam(Untitled.jpg) in case if it helps in understanding my problem,

Also I would be very happy if you point out any discrepancies in my drawing.

Thank You,

Hello,

I really appreciate the Effort the Community has taken , I must have provided more insights earlier , The Screen cast does not solves my problem , but provides me very useful advice on constraining the geometry as I sketch , I am attaching a screen shot of what I am trying to achieve , and also a dwg file of the same if it helps understand my problem in a better way.

Thank You , for providing me a opportunity to access help and knowledge on this community platform,

Thanks ,

This is a very very simple problem.

Attach the *.ipt of your file again - this time with fully constrained sketches and I will create video on how to finish the editing.

In your original *.ipt you had the as R0.5

Now you have it as R2.993

you must, of course, make a decision on the true Design Intent.

Hello,

Here's the File , fully Constrained (Learned from your advice) , I think I might have found a solution , but I'd like to see how you would do it also it might help someone else with a similar problem. I really appreciate the efforts taken by you and the community.

Thank You,
