AutoCalcsTo3D Bridge is an innovative solution that seamlessly integrates Autodesk® Inventor® with AutoCalcs' powerful calculation capabilities, thus streamlining engineering and modeling tasks. This bridge enhances Inventor's parametric modeling by connecting it to versatile multi-step calculations featuring automated unit conversion.

Key Features:

  1. Automated Unit Conversion
  • Eliminates manual unit conversion errors
  • Supports comprehensive engineering unit systems
  • Seamlessly transfers values between Inventor and AutoCalcs

  1. Smart Data Exchange
  • Bi-directional parameter synchronization
  • Real-time model updates based on calculation results
  • Maintains parameter relationships and dependencies

  1. Browser-based Calculation Interface
  • Access to extensive AutoCalcs calculation templates
  • Easy-to-use web interface
  • Customizable calculation workflows

  1. Streamlined Workflow
  • Direct integration with Inventor parameters
  • Instant calculation updates
  • Visual feedback for data synchronization

  1. Calculation Library
  • Pre-built engineering calculation templates
  • Common sizing and analysis calculations
  • Expandable calculation collection

  1. Enhancing Inventor's built-in iLogic
  • AC3D Bridge works completely independently of Inventor's iLogic.
  • No-code style calculations can greatly enhance design automation in Inventor.

Primary Benefits: 

  • Efficiency: Reduce time spent on manual calculations and unit conversions
  • Accuracy: Eliminate conversion errors and maintain calculation consistency
  • Flexibility: Adapt calculations to your specific engineering needs
  • Traceability: Keep clear records of calculation processes and results
  • Reliability: Trust in validated calculation templates and automated processes

The AutoCalcs-Inventor Bridge brings the power of sophisticated engineering calculations directly into your Inventor workflow, making complex design processes more efficient and reliable.

Note: This app uses a custom installer (and not the standard App Store installer).

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

v2-docs.donwen.com/ac3d-bridge/calcs: Starting Page for Calculations made to drive Inventor models. This page will be updated online from time to time to show new calculations for public access.

v2-docs.donwen.com/ac3d-bridge/models: Sample Inventor models that have associated AutoCalcs calculations for sizing, etc. This page will be updated online from time to time to show new calculations for public access.

v2-docs.donwen.com/ac3d-bridge/help Help page that will be updated online as needed.

  • This free version allows users to use provided calculations and models to see how Inventor 3D models can be re-sized by AC3D Bridge app. Users can not create their own calculations yet.
  • In Inventor Parameters (fx), the Comment field is used to track the mapping relationship between Inventor parameters and AutoCalcs PQs data. Changing that will affect the data flow.
  • A paid version that allows users to create their own AutoCalcs style calculations easily will be published soon.
