ADC (Automatic Drawing Creator) opens up a world of possibilities with its customizable settings, designed to meet your unique workflow. Users can influence every aspect of the drawing creation process, allowing them to create 2D drawings that align perfectly with their goals and specifications.
ADC makes it super easy to create drawings for all kinds of Inventor documents, whether you’re working with parts, assemblies, or sheet metals. You can enjoy dynamic drawing views and templates, plus the dimensions and annotations you need. It’s pretty straightforward to customize settings like the sheet size, drawing scale, and view orientation. And don’t forget, you can also add parts lists and balloons to keep everything organized!
One of the great perks of using ADC is that you can easily customize the settings to match the needs of each project, so you won’t have to make adjustments later on. It saves your settings for each project, letting you enjoy different configurations tailored to your workflow.
To enhance each user’s workflow, ADC features an ilogic section that empowers them to integrate external ilogic rules. These rules can be activated for various document types at key moments during the ADC drawing creation process. Allowing for a truly customized and inspiring approach to their work.
Automates the process of detecting and creating drawings for parts and assemblies. Thanks to the innovative new features of ADC, users can now effortlessly detect missing drawings. This empowers them to pause the drawing creation process whenever needed and seamlessly continue from where they left off.
ADC has friendly default settings that make it super easy for users to jump right into creating drawings without wasting time on adjustments. You can start having fun with ADC immediately after setting it up no extra tweaks needed!
How it works
ADC (Automatic Drawing Creator) can be started directly from an Assembly or Part Document in Inventor
When you launch ADC from Assembly, you can choose to create drawings for all levels of the assembly. This means you can include every document within the assembly, just the first assembly level, or only the current assembly document. ADC understands your BOM, guiding you in creating the necessary drawings while also allowing you the freedom to tailor settings to your vision.
ADC presents innovative concepts for the drawing creation process, enhancing the capabilities of Inventor and empowering creators to reach new heights.
