1 TECHNICAL WHITEPAPER Inventor User Coordinate System (UCS) Introduction Every Inventor Part and Assembly has an Origin folder. The Inventor User Coordinate System (UCS) gives the designer the ability to have as many user origins as desired. They contain the same members as the Origin folder and can be used for the same purposes. UCS have one feature that makes them very special, they can be moved and/or rotated unlike the Origin folder features. This makes them very valuable in the design process. Uses for User Coordinate System There are too many uses to list but here are some of the top ones: In Part Modeling: Provides dynamic work planes for sketches and features. If the sketch or feature is modeled on a UCS work plane, then the UCS is redefined, either moved and/or rotated, the sketch or feature moves with it. Provides another way to position work planes and axis in the model which is often quicker and more robust than using the traditional work features. Once placed the work planes can be used for splits, measurement or termination planes to mention a few. In Assembly Modeling: Parts can be constrained together using any UCS features contained in them. The assembly constraint will automatically adjust to changes in the location and/or angle of the UCS in the part. UCS work planes can be used for quick viewing using the Look At command. In Drawings: Table of Contents Introduction UCS features can be included in the model drawing and can be used for reference dimensions. Uses for User Coordinate System User Coordinate Configuration Placement of UCS in Part Model Example of UCS Applications Conclusion About the Author: John R. Hackney, Manufacturing Solutions Consultant User Coordinate Configuration The UCS command can be configured in the Inventor Part and Assembly templates to follow a specific set of rules. After a UCS has been created, it appears in the browser and may be edited for visibility at any time. The prefix name cannot be edited once it is placed. The configuration command is found in the shown location.
2 Inventor User Coordinate System (UCS) 2 In the UCS Settings dialog, everything is self-explanatory except the Default plane. Once the UCS is placed in the model, the Default plane affects the behavior of sketch and face view commands. Placement of UCS in Part Model UCS are placed using points (including midpoints), vertices, centers and work points. After executing the command, which is found on the Work Features panel, it will prompt you for three points. The first one is the origin point, then a point to define the X direction and last the y direction. Once all conditions are satisfied, the UCS is saved in the browser. Each UCS uses the naming prefix and a consecutive number. A UCS is shown below with the default configuration. Notice the triad, and the three axis are visible. If you right click on the UCS in the browser, you can choose the Redefine Feature to change the location and/or rotation. If you decide to relocate the origin, select the blue ball and select three points in the same way used when you originally created the UCS. If you only wish to move the UCS allow one of the axis, select the direction arrow head and specify a distance which can be negative or positive. If you wish to rotate the UCS, select the axis bar (between the blue ball and the arrow head) and specify the desired angle. This also can be negative or positive. Positive rotation is clockwise if you are looking at the arrow point. For example, I am rotating the UCS around the X axis plus 30 degrees. The before and after pictures are shown below. After you are finished editing the UCS, right click and select Finish. If you really mess up, right click and select Restart.
3 Inventor User Coordinate System (UCS) 3 Example of UCS Applications Moving a feature In this example, the slot was created on UCS:1 X-Y Plane. If the UCS:1 is redefined to another face of the block, the slot moves with it. Take care to select points that keep the extrusion direction through the block or you will have to redefine the direction of the extrusion cut. Creating a UCS Work Plane for Use with the Split Command The split shown below was created by the X-Y plane of the UCS. The UCS was created on the corner with the X-axis point at the vertex of the yellow side edge and the Y-axis point at the vertex of the original red side edge. The Redefine Feature command was used to select the Y arrow to move the UCS 0.75 down the red face edge. Then the X bar (between the blue ball and the X arrow during editing) was selected and an angle of +30 degrees was applied. As an Assembly Constraint Feature Combining Parts with UCS features is a delight using a dedicated assembly constraint. The channel beam must be centered on the plate. This would take at least three calculated flush and mate assembly constraints.
4 Inventor User Coordinate System (UCS) 4 Select the Place Constraint command from the Assembly Tab, Relationship Panel and select the Constraint Set tab. Select each of the part UCS icons and you are done. The assembly constraint uses three flush constraints between the three planes of each UCS so if you need to adjust the position of the channel, these can be modified.
5 Inventor User Coordinate System (UCS) 5 The beauty of this method is if one of the part UCS is redefined, the assembly will update automatically. In the below image, the channel UCS has to be rotated about the Z axis +30 degrees. This in turn will rotate the channel, in relation to the base, -30 degrees looking at the Z axis arrow. Conclusion The uses for the UCS is only limited by your imagination. The next time you are faced with the creation of a particularly hard work plane or you have a challenging assembly constraint, give the UCS command a try. About the Author: John R.
