Create templates for weldments

All new weldment files are created with a template. When you start a new weldment, settings from the default weldment template are applied to the weldment. You can create your own templates, and then add them to the templates provided by ProdName.

1. Create a weldment, using an existing template.
2. Set the default units of measurement.
3. Set the standard to use.
4. Specify the weld bead material type, visibility, and enabled status.
5. If needed, change the sizes of the origin work planes to accommodate the average weldment size.
6. Set the properties for the file.
7. Save the file in the Autodesk\Inventor [version]\Templates folder or a subfolder of Templates. A weldment file automatically becomes a template when it is saved to the Templates folder.

Note: The "weldment.iam" file in the Templates folder is the default assembly template. To replace the default template, remove "weldment.iam" and replace it with a template that has the same name.
