Multi part/level process experiences

Are you using this method I reference to?

multi-part-level-process-skeletal-method

In special the "Multi Part/Level Process".

And what are your experiences with this method?

Or are you using simple skeketal modelling techniques like Multibody Design or equal.

Hi Arthur,

I suggest you watch the following AU online class, "All the skeletons in the closet- Skeletal Modeling Master Class."

https://www.autodesk.com/autodesk-university/class/All-skeletons-closet-Skeletal-Modeling-Master-Class-2022

The technique the speakers used in the class allows them to build million-component assemblies in Inventor.

Many thanks!

Thank you @johnsonshiue,

This is not using or explaining the "Multi part/level process" method.

Very high level of programming in this case, respect!

Still appreciate the link you have given me, thanks for that.

Regards,

I don't do it this way.

I do use a Master Assembly to get "reference" from "referenced" or "purchased" or "customer" parts.

"Referenced Parts" -> "Master Assembly" -> "Master Sketch" -> Everything else

@Frederick_Law

Have you tried the multi level process, or don't you have experience with it?

I need to read through it to see how exactly its done.

I don't think I've done it. I only Project from sketch. Always avoid part to part unless necessary.

And when I need, I put the part in Master Assembly, Project into Master Sketch before I use it.

I avoid that adaptive icon as much as possible.

@Frederick_Law

Do I understand correct that you use this without derive?

Re: Multi part/level process experiences

Frederick_Law — Fri, 18 Nov 2022 14:34:02 GMT

The Multi-part one doesn't have Derive.

It maybe similar to SSP in Solidworks.

Means project geometry and without adaptivity? This is disabled manually?

Don't know. Not clear from the diagram.

Need to watch video, later.
