Hello
How do I create an axis in an assembly in Inventor 2013?
I tried to create a sketch with a point at a certain distance from a surface, but then the point of the sketch is not recognized as a point in the assembly....
Does anyone have an idea?
Thank you.

Show us what you want to do
An axis is a straight line with 2 ends
so a line of axis

Good evening
Here are some videos where they explain how to create an axis:

Reminder: on Youtube you can display subtitles even in French.
Hello
Thank you for your answers, I watched the videos but it doesn't match.
I have an assembly (gripper), I need to create an axle at a certain distance from a plate.... so that it can then be positioned in another assembly
I tried by creating a sketch in the assembly with a point that I dimensioned in relation to the turntable.
Then I tried to add the centerline by selecting, an edge (for the direction) but then I can't select the point of the sketch....
Any leads are welcome, thank you.

Hello
Personally, when I want to create an axis, I often use the plane intersection.
In your case, you may need to create a plane distant from the surface and then use the intersection with another to create the axis.
Kind regards.
Hi @ hervé
@samos024's solution is good
Look at this tutorial it's in English (state)

All the assembly constraints are very visual

Hello
Indeed, the creation of an axis in relation to plans is the best solution.
Give us a coin to see.
