A future improvement by Autodesk perhaps? Unfortunately this doesn’t allow individual highlighting of the clash results one-by-one. When the analysis has finished you’ll get each interference highlighted in red on the model like this.Īnd you’ll also get a dialogue like this:Įxpand it and you’ll get something like this, showing some info about the clash parts and clash volumes. So this then makes it very simple to analyse a whole assembly in one click. If you do this the analysis starts straight away and checks all the parts you picked against each other. However, the simple tip here is that you need to select the components before you hit the Analyze Interference button.

If you click it you’ll get a dialogue asking you to Define Set 1 and Set 2.ġ) If you define 2 sets of components they will be interference checked against each other (all of the components in set 1 will be checked against all the components in set 2).Ģ) If you define only a single set (and then click ‘OK’) all the components you picked will be clash checked against each other.ģ) You can’t drag a box to select multiple components, you have to pick components one at a time. Where is it? In Inventor 2015 the tool is located on the ‘Inspect’ tab.

I’m sure I can’t be the only one who has used the ‘Analyze Interference’ tool incorrectly and found it slightly confusing to figure out. This is a classic case of ‘simple when you know how’. Checking for interference in your Inventor assembly.
