For those using this guide or the Routing add-on today, the standard process involves:
: Detailed steps for creating subassemblies, utilizing ACpoints and ARpoints , and integrating these into a larger route.
The guide focuses on the technical workflow for creating professional piping and tubing systems within SOLIDWORKS, covering: The Piping and Tubing Design Guide for SolidWor...
: How to use design tables to manage custom properties and pull data directly into engineering drawings.
: Sketching paths manually or using auto-routing features to connect components. For those using this guide or the Routing
: Starting a route by dragging a fitting (like a flange) from the Design Library into an assembly.
The (2011) by Wes Mosler is a comprehensive manual designed to supplement official SOLIDWORKS documentation for the Routing add-on. Key Content Overview : Starting a route by dragging a fitting
: Instructions on dimensioning pipe and tubing, creating Bills of Materials (BOM) with pipe length information, and visual techniques like "cropping" pipe for realistic presentation. Core Workflow in SOLIDWORKS Routing
