How to Use:
- After Installation, PipeWorks is fully embedded into SolidWorks
- To use PipeWorks after installation, merely go into the SolidWorks -Add-In- menu under -Tools- and select -PipeWorks-.
- After PipeWorks is turned on, three new Icons will appear on the SolidWorks toolbar, one for Pipe, one for Nipples, and one for Fittings.
- When an Icon is selected, a dialog box will appear in the Feature Manager section.
- The user then selects the edge where the pipe or fitting will go.
- If the edge selected is from the CadParts Library, the size is automatically obtained and entered into the dialogue box.
- If the edge selected is from a non-catalog part, the user enters the size in the dialogue box
- The user then selects the material, grade, class, and type of fitting
- After the selections are made, the user clicks OK and the fitting, pipe, or nipple is inserted and mated into the assembly.
- The Pipe, Nipples, and Fittings are mated so that the proper insertion depth for a liquid tight fit is achieved.
