Missing .ipt files #2

Open damianolodi opened 5 years ago

damianolodi commented 5 years ago

Concerning the MyPart_sensor project, I am importing the meche files in Fusion 360. While importing MyPart_V0.iam and MyPart_V0_with_case.iam, the software tells me that some .ipt files is missing. In particular, it cannot find:

In fact, I can see the matching .STEP files but I cannot find the `.ipt.

Hi there,

Here's one way that might fix the import issue: for each screw, create an .ipt file which contains the screw STEP geometry, and save it as the missing .ipt file. (you might have some issues with coordinate system mismatch when importing with Fusion 360 though...)

Another way would be to use Fusion 360's mcmaster-carr import tool. 99397A269 and 99397A269 are the mcmaster part numbers for those screws.
