Exporting Part xyz in assemblies

Exporting Part xyz in assemblies

Exporting Part xyz in assemblies

(OP)
Hi All

Anybody know a way of exporting the xyz co-ordinates of individual parts,(relative to the assembly origin),in a way that can be used in excel / access?

I basically need a list of the xyz of all parts used. At the moment I am having to interrogate the physical properties of each part and write them down

Cheers

Dave

RE: Exporting Part xyz in assemblies

What are you doing that would need the XYZ coordinates from the model?

Just curious.

Actually I am using the data to manually calculate the centre of gravity of the whole assembly. I know Inventor can calculate automatically, but my customer likes to see manual calculations.(Moments and all)
