Because there are a large number of artificial regulations in the national standards of engineering drawings, such as simplified drawing, no ribs, etc., this is inconsistent with the engineering drawings obtained by Inventor according to parallel orthographic projection. Here are a few tips on how to generate engineering drawings with Inventor and share them with everyone.
(1) Since Inventor's own frame is inconsistent with the national standard, it is necessary to delete Inventor's own frame and define a new frame. For the common upper left corner of the drawing, the small column can also be defined in the frame; the title bar Need to redefine, and establish an automatic relationship with the model (currently to Inventor2012 for the material and scale column in the title bar, also need to be artificially added); Inventor's own parts list is inconsistent with the national standard, by editing the list style to make changes It is consistent with national standards; in accordance with national standards and its own drawing habits, the size, text, geometric tolerance symbols, surface roughness symbols, etc. are also edited in the style and standard editor. After finishing the above work, click “Save As\Save Copy as Template†to create a new user template file and save it as different frames of A4, A3, A2, A1 and A0, so that you can create new drawing files from user template later. Call different frames in .
(2) For parts such as screws that need to be knurled, do not need to be made in Inventor according to the actual situation, but use the characteristic \ face color \ line pattern to select the approximate relief map. Select the view in the drawing, create a sketch, draw a sketch line, form a field with the projected edge, select fill / fill the area with the hatch, select a diagonal line, check the cross check box (also directly select the net Shape line), finally select the sketch line only the sketch is visible, complete the sketch.
(3) Mechanical drawing regulations: solid round rod-like and plate-like structures such as ribs, spokes, and thin walls of parts, such as longitudinal sectioning, without drawing the cross-section symbol, and separating it from its adjacent part by a thick solid line. Inventor is all processed into cuts. Select the hatching, hide the hatching in the right-click menu, create a sketch for this view, delete the unwanted projection lines, add the required projection lines, set the line width, project the required geometry, and fill the hatching one by one.
(4) For rectangular splines, mechanical drawing has a special drawing method. In Inventor, whether it is a common practice or a spline made by a design accelerator, the drawing is obtained by parallel orthographic projection. The processing method is : Select splines on the drawing, select the unneeded segments, right click to select visibility, and hide these segments. Create a sketch of this view, fill in the required line segments, set the line width, and complete the sketch.
(5) For some parts that use standard drawing and the top view adopts the method of breaking the drawing, you only need to use the break drawing method to uncheck the pass to the top view check box.
(6) For the Inventor assembly drawing, the material of each part corresponds to the physical characteristics of the part, such as cast iron, carbon steel, and the like. Right-click on the parts list to select the edit list and change the actual material in the material column.
(7) Mechanical drawing regulations: In the mechanical assembly drawing, for solid parts such as shafts, if they are cut in the longitudinal direction and the cutting plane passes through the plane of symmetry, these parts are drawn without sectioning. Inventor is all cut and cut. The treatment method is: 1 placed on the part profile line, right click and hide. 2 In the left model browser, put it on this part, right click to select the parting part, select None.
(8) For the mechanical assembly drawing, remove the words “piece××â€, and the processing method in Inventor is: under the left model browser, right click on the view “×× parts†to select the visibility.
(9) For the non-graph parts in the Inventor assembly drawing, right-click on the parts list to select the edit parts list, right-click on any column to insert the custom parts, and fill in the fields to save.
(10) In the Inventor assembly drawing, after the completion of the parts list, it is found to be too long. If the current pattern cannot be placed, the parts list needs to be split into multiple columns. The processing method is: after the alignment with the title bar, create two parts lists, and right-click on the parts list to select the edit parts list. If there are 30 parts, select the serial number 1~15 in the first part list, and select the serial number 16~30 in the second part list.
