Does anyone use routing to do complex welded piping? The routing library consists of only flanges and pipe. I am curious if there are users that have built up libraries of parts and believes that routing is a good tool. Cadworx is great and has a full library, but it is not compatible with...

Im new to routing for asme vessel flanges and pipe runs. Ive got the hang of it when the tanks already have the flanges welded on the tanks. My question is this.....when designing new tanks, what is the best way to add the flanges, olets and other fittings to the tank? They will be welded of...
I used acad for years, then switched to solidworks for the last 10 years. Long story short, I am looking into changing industries due to the oil and gas industry being crippled. I see many jobs for autocad 3d requirements. Well, I thought maybe autocad had really changed and must be practical...
