Designcenter Solid Edge XpresRoute fact sheet
Route pipes and tubes through Solid Edge assemblies with automatic fittings and bills of materials.
A three-page fact sheet on Designcenter Solid Edge XpresRoute, the Solid Edge environment for designing tubing and piping inside 3D assemblies. It follows the routing workflow from path definition to finished pipe models and the reports produced at the end. The document dates from 2019 and lists the system requirements of that time.
What the document covers
- Creating fully associative routing paths with 3D variational sketches
- PathXpres, which generates a path between two points automatically, and OrientXpres, which locks segments parallel to an axis or plane while sketching
- Automatic population of pipes, tubes, fittings and components along the path, with size, extents and end treatments set in dialog boxes
- Routed parts that update when the connected assembly changes, and flexible tubes and hoses modelled with 3D curves
- Bend tables for tube bending machines, cut lists, BOMs and drawing dimensions for lengths, radii and angles
- The optional piping library of elbows, tees, reducers, flanges, unions and seals in threaded, welded, flanged and slip-on versions
Who it is for
Mechanical designers and engineers who model machinery, skids or equipment with piping and tubing, and teams that need accurate purchasing and manufacturing data from routed systems.
