Webinar Preview: Introduction to Routing for Piping

This webinar is an introduction into SolidWorks Routing. With routing in SolidWorks you can simplify design and documentation of piping and tubing for a wide range of systems and applications, including machinery, skid systems, and process plant piping.

Found in SolidWorks Premium there are a whole host of benefits to those involved in piping and tubing design, including;

• Create piping system designs with butt welded, socket welded, threaded, and other connections
• Create flexible or rigid tubing lines
• Automate placement of supports and hangers for all lines
• Generate bend tables for tube routes to support manufacturing
• Calculate cut lengths for all pipe and tube runs
• Auto-route pipe/tube paths through the design that can be easily edited according to assembly and service needs
• Ensure minimum bend radii in flexible tube systems

• Output PCF files for use with ISOGEN® piping software
• Export tubing/piping bend tables to CNC benders
• Automatically generate piping/tubing manufacturing drawings from your 3D models
• Import logical connection information design from SolidWorks Solution Partner products
• Automatically create bill of material (BOM), cut lists, bend tables, and other manufacturing documentation
• Access a CAD library of piping and tubing components
• Use the Routing Library Manager (RLM) wizard to guide creation of custom piping/tubing components

Topics Covered

For this introductory webinar, we will cover amongst other things;

• How to use standard library parts
• Linking equipment together using SolidWorks Routing
• Creating routes and complex piping systems
• How to document our designs to share with others
