Having problem saving .ipt to .iges.
Having problem saving .ipt to .iges.
(OP)
Hi all,
I have a problem regarding saving a .ipt file to .iges.
At the moment we are using Inventor 11 and I have a part file which is roughly 1.5MB in size.
The problem is that it doesn't seem to want to save in .iges format.
I have tried "re-build all" and then tring to save but to no avail.
It has saved acouple of times but when I open up the .iges file parts of the model seem to be "distorted".
If anybody gas any suggestion they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
B.

What is the problem specificly? Does it give you an error message?

It's going through the motions of saving, but then when you go to look for the file it's not there!
Thanks for the help guys.

I think I've answered my own question!
My part was "split" in to two pieces. Allegedly the .ipt will not save as an .iges if the part has been split, so say our AUTODesk supplier.
I have to build the 2 parts into an assembly to save as an .iges.
Thanks for the comments guys.
Cheers
