Drive Constraint-Simulate Mechanical Motion (Autodesk Inventor)

You can simulate mechanical motion by driving a constraint through a beginning position and an ending position according to the intent of design. Generally offset and angle constraints are selected to drive components within an assembly.

To begin, select a constrain in the browser, right-click the constraint, and then select Drive Constraint from the context menu. The Drive Constraint dialog box opens. In Start, enter the beginning value. In End, enter the ending value. Click more to set additional options.

The videos present in the following playlist shows the application of drive constraint.

Unified and American screw internal thread profile- Autodesk Inventor 2012

 

In this video, I will show you how to create a thread profile for the Unified and American Screw thread (internal).With simple parameters and constraints we can create the sketch profile for this thread quite easily.

I did not applied detailed formula derived values in the beginning of sketch. But the final sketch proved the equations values itself.

The finished file is available for download for the Unified and American Screw internal and external both on the link below:--
