Thanks! Sorry if I wasn't clear - I can clarify if needed. I've been thinking of trying out MeshMixer, but I'd prefer to stick to Inventor.ĭoes anyone have any suggestions that would allow me to properly import and edit STL files in Inventor? The scaling is either by this factor, or by 10. On another part I converted, edited, and exported, I had to use a scale I calculated of 39.9% in my 3D Printing slicer in order to obtain the correct size. If you zoom up, you will see it consists of a lot of points like the image below. This technique will allow much larger STL files to be imported into SolidWorks than the native SolidWorks STL import tool. Seems to have retained the incorrect scale, however I lost the circular geometry, so I had to measure face to face. The Mesh Enabler enables Inventor users to work with imported Mesh data.
Now, measuring the mesh converted into a base part: This seems to be a factor of 10, which is fine, but inconvenient. If anything, closer to 19.7mm (measuring the 3D printed part from this, in which there is no scaling issues on my slicer. The following features work with Mesh based parts in Inventor 2017. Imported Mesh support in Inventor 2017:4. To split a Mesh file which contains multiple shells into multiple Mesh bodies in Inventor, tick the ‘Split Group’ option in mesh import.
OPENING MESH ENABLER INVENTOR PRO PRO
This release marks a continued focus on improved perform. Pro tip: Splitting OBJ Groups into individual meshes. Inventor customers from around the world continue to provide feedback and drive enhancements to the Inventor 2019 experience. The inner diameter is not supposed to be 19.7cm (I tried inches and mm too). Inventor 2019 is built for todays engineering and design professional. Furthermore, I used the Mesh Enabler plugin to convert the mesh into a base part and the scaling remains wrong, if not worse. I open them as you would any other file, and no matter what units I choose in the Options when opening, the mesh generated is off by some weird factor.
Hi, I'm trying to edit STL files (from places like Thingiverse) but I run into some difficulty with the scaling when I import them into Inventor.
