guitar-bimbo Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Is there a way to split a single part in an assembly in order to show two separate halves during an animation. Scenario: My company wants to split a 40 ft shipping container in half to scab in a 4' section to make a 12' wide container. I have designed a jig on tracks to show how the container can be split and half of the container to be rolled away to allow for the "scab" to be built in the middle. IS there a way to animate this in Inventor.. The container is in the assembly model as a single part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD Mather Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Do you want to do this with Drive Constraint or Do you want to do this in Inventor Studio or Do you want to do this in Dynamic Simulation or Do you want to do this in Dynamic Simulation and publish to Inventor Studio? or (I guess) Do you want to do this in the Presentation (*.ipn) environment? How much experience with each of above options do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitar-bimbo Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 I have been using Inventor about 3 months (student) I believe I have figured out how to do what I want ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
