Export to IFC with assembly structure

Export to IFC with assembly structure

When using Inventor for design of steelstructurs, and later use theese in BIM (Tekla), we need the assembly structure to be able to identify the induvidual parts and beams. As the export functions works now, the entire structure is exported into one component.

Yes.... due this issue, i have to keep listening that Teckla export better to Revit than other Autocad softwares...
Nowadays, which use of BIM is in the front of the line, this issue is more then needy.... is mandatory.


INTEROPABILITY Autodesk!!!.

Any update on this?
I have the same issue, and I think it will get more common.

Same issue here. 

 

I would like to take an Inventor assembly into revit keeping parts as .rfa .  Not fussed on whether its is taken in as an IFC, as long as I can get the IFC out of Revit split by component. 

 

Solving this will solve an ever growing issue in construction.

Hi all,

yes, that is very importent. We need the also the assembly structure in an IFC-Export to be able to identify the induvidual parts.
Please implement this function as soon as possible.

This idea has been implemented within Autodesk Inventor 2026. Please review the Inventor 2026 What's New article here, for more information regarding how you can export IFC to 2x3 or 4x3 formats. Special thanks to everyone who cast a vote for this capability.

That article did not really mentioned that IFC export from Inventor 2026 will work with Tekla. Will see.
