I have created a tool in Inventor that generates a hose end with a variety of parameters that can be chosen in a form. The dimensions of the parts are controlled in iLogic rules at component level. The components are placed and constrained with iLogic rules at the assembly level. I have placed the assembly and components in the Vault as it's a tool for everyone to use. Before I start really building up the library I want to know how this will be saved on the user end. I would like the tool to:
Is this possible and how would I do this? I'm looking for instructions for how an end user would save this to meet my requirements.
I have included some sceenshot's to you can picture the project a little better:
Thank you!
There is many ways to carry out a copy design and reuse and it will entirely depend on your process within the company.
Vault copy design will allow you to copy the assembly and parts. If you want your parts read only then make them library parts.
If you have ilogic rules then you will need to stabilize occurrence names to avoid issues when rules try to find old occurrences names stored in the code.
Ilogic copy design is there for copying assemblies out side of vault and it will handle replacing references in ilogic rules.
We would need to know more information as to the structure of your parts to offer more advice.
Testing the combinations of copying and reuse is always a good way to see how your assembly will perform.
