설명

The "Tab and Slot" add-in allows for easy tab and slot creation on plate and tube models. It supports the Assembly and Multi-Body part environments.

 

Any uniformly thick parts can be used to create tabs and slots. Further to that, "center drilled", "coincident", "Tangent" or "dog-bone" recess fillets can be added automatically to the Tabs or Slots or both.

The add-in supports Metric (mm) and Imperial (inch) units.

 

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

체험판 설명

The app gives a 10-day trial after the first run.

A subscription can be purchased for $79 USD per year.

  • When is this going to work with 2025.
    Roy Pridham | 3월 24, 2025 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    Currently i have installed but nothing is working.

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 3월 25, 2025

    Hi it is available for Inventor 2025. Please contact me using the email provided in the app, on the Help tab, and I will help you from there.


  • Very useful
    Hayden Richmond | 3월 07, 2025 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    This tool is very handy when it comes to designing and fabricationg frames.

    I will say that a good improvement would be the option to adjust the slot clearance independently as a Top & Bottom and Left & right sides rather than having the slot clearance remain the same all the way around the tab.

    This added flexibility would be a great improvement. 

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 3월 10, 2025

    Thanks for the feedback. I presume you would want the width clearance set independently to the length clearance. Email me through the app so we can talk details.


  • Autodesk Inventor 2025 - Tab and Slot
    Jaroslav Bakalar | 5월 02, 2024 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    It would be great to have app also for Inventor 2025 , when we should expect it ?

     

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 3월 10, 2025

    There is already a 2025 version.


  • awesome tool
    Gary Reiff | 5월 09, 2023 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    I would not do with out it but ther are a 2 things that would be nice 

    1. it would be nice if the tabs would chaing whith the part wen you chaing the size and spacing of the part, or then if you cold some how update old tabes insted of deleting them and then making them agen .

    2.would ther be a way if ther are mutipel instences of the same part in the assemble to make it put the slots in for all the parts at the same time

    other wis the works great

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 5월 11, 2023

    Thanks for the review and recommendations. We are looking at incorporating point 1 already. For point 2 there is a workflow to add slots only if you have a part that already has slots added. In the demo video we show that.

    Daniel Laurentiu Florescu | 6월 24, 2024

    Any time estimate of when we can expect the functionality described at point 1?

    Great Tool! coming from Solidworks that has a built in Tab & Slot, i was disappointed that inventor 2023 does not have it. But i am glad that there is a plug-in available. 

    However, I do want to point out that the Tab & Slots are not parametric. Meaning, if you adjust plate and it changes the location of the tab, the slot will not update. You have to go search for all of the feautres/sketches and delete them. Then re-do the slots and tabs. I beleieve this is because the tool uses "Project Cut Lines" which are not associative. Instead, "Project Geometry" should be used. 

    Lastly, when switching to Inches, the mm still shows up in the input fields. Its not a big deal because the input is considered as Inches. But it is annoying seeing the "mm" every time you open the tool. 

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 1월 20, 2023

    Thanks for the feedback and great review! The inches/mm setting only comes into effect when no unit is specified. So if you specify 12 then the unit will be 12mm if it was set to Metric or 12in if it was set to Imperial. So it's a default unit when the user does not specify a unit. The app is designed to use mixed units and formulas to make it more robust.


  • Best add-in ever
    Philip Chan | 6월 29, 2022 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    Autodesk should work with you guys

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 6월 30, 2022

    Thanks for the great review Philip!


  • Add to Fusion
    Paul Waldner | 3월 18, 2022 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    We need one for fusion 30.


  • Very Helpful!!
    paul attea | 3월 15, 2022 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    We use this tool all the time, simple workflow, create complex tabs and slots in very few clicks!  

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 3월 16, 2022

    Thanks for the review and feedback!


  • Great Time Saver.
    Brad Gates | 2월 16, 2022 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    This is a real time saver!! I just wished that the slots would move with the part, it you constrain a part and make your tabs and slot and the decide you want your part with the tabs over say a 1/2 inch the slots do not move with the part, that is the only down fall I see.   Other then that it is great.

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 3월 16, 2022

    Thanks for your feedback. We will investigate this and add the improvements in the next release.


  • Nice Tool
    Geert van Pelt | 2월 04, 2022 다운로드 확인 (이것은 무엇입니까?)

    Nice tool works good in assemblies and saves a lot of time.

    However I use multibodiparts and would also like to apply it in a part file if possible.

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 2월 08, 2022

    Thanks for the great review and feature request. We will look into adding multibody support.


  • Great tool

    Very nice tool! Really usefull, thanks. Apply in the end: it's not interactive to plate thickness or other changes. 

    Pieter van der Westhuizen (게시자) | 2월 03, 2022

    Thanks for the great review.
