![]() Note: There is no reason why iAssemblies and iCopy couldn’t be used in conjunction with each other (although the thought is pretty mind boggling!). Unfortunately, there is currently no option to choose how the iCopy tool handles the file name incrementsĪn iCopy assembly is best used when the shape of the design is likely to change rather than the configuration. ICopy handles the creation and naming of the new assembly file and all its component parts. ![]() ICopy can also be used to automate adding patterns of Assemblies, like rungs on a ladder or curtain walling panels. ![]() The iCopy Assembly is referenced to the skeleton part using Autodesk Inventor’s adaptivity feature and will update when the skeleton part updates. ICopy assemblies are used in conjunction with a skeleton part (much like the Frame Generator). An iAssembly is usually used to create a number of variations controlled by a master table. ICopy is different from an iAssembly, in that the iCopy tool creates infinite sizes of a design from a template Assembly. Beginning with Inventor 2011, iCopy is included in the program. Note: iCopy is a new tool that was added to Inventor as an Autodesk Labs plugin for Inventor 2010. #ICOPY SIZE MISMATCH HOW TO#This exercise demonstrates how to use iCopy to create an adaptive sheet metal cladding panel. The iCopy tool uses adaptivity and skeletal modeling to automate the process of copying and positioning similar components within an assembly. However, if you know in advance that you will want to create an assembly that has many variations in size and shape-Autodesk Inventor’s iCopy tool could be just what you need. ![]() If you’ve ever tried copying and reusing an Autodesk Inventor® assembly, you know that it can be a fiddly job.
