), I'm using Pro/PIPING module, but didn't manage yet to explore all the possibilities (didn't establish piping library and automate piping creation yet).
BTW, what are basic requirements for full functionality of Pro/PIPING (parts library, basic settings, stock library?). As I studied Pro/PIPING module I understood that this module supports automatic replacement of flanges, elbows,... as change in basic parameters of the piping occurs. Is that correct or was I mislead?
Everything is ok as you mention but have you thought of drawing generation for the piping work. ISOGEN automatically generates isometric drawings from your piping assemblies and thats a great time saver. And this is backward compatible with Pro/Engineer.
We have not used Pro/Piping much only for a couple projects over the past 4 years
Now there is a push from upper management to use the Pro/Piping and make ISO sketches for fabrication. I have made sketches by extracting models and doin it that way now I try a differebt approach and constructing the Pipe as a Asssembly and then make a ISO sketch from that this seems to better that extacting the Model. I have been trying to get Management to get a ISO GEN package because it really looks like it will do exactly what I am looking for. I trying to sent the spec driven stuff but don't have a clue as to haow to do that. If anyone has in ifo on how thia is done please email me: [email protected]
