    using geometry from pipes created with systems routing

    Hello - don't know that this will help , but Penetration Management is the function within Catia for creating links between tube elements and regular CatParts. I have not found much use for it personally, it seems to be more for keeping track of an interface than actually being useful in any...

    Do you use layers in Catia V5 for data segregation?

    Do you use layers in Catia V5 for data segregation? I know it is possible but We are transitioning from V4 to V5 and are trying to determine how our existing V4 processes regarding layers and filters will apply in V5. thanks- Kelly

    Analysing bending resistance and torsional resistance

    Although I haven't personally used it, in the Generative Structural Analysis workbench there's a function "Cut Plane Analysis" that gives section properties. If this is the demo I saw, you can move the cutting plane around "on the fly" and get the properties anywhere on the...

    Tubing or Piping for V5/R5

    rgf1310- Yes, I started with V5R7 so we've always had the Piping Design and other Systems Design workbenches, I noticed right after I posted that you said you have R5, so I guess you don't have this option. I looked and I did find the two files that 13910634301 mentioned...

    Tubing or Piping for V5/R5

    Presumably the best way to create tubing would be to use the Tubing Design workbench, wouldn't it? It does not require you to build a centerline then sweep around it, it's more like the V4 Tubing function. As far as having K-factors, springback factors, extracting tube data and other such...

    Tubing centerline data in V5

    Is there a way to analyze a tube or pipe and determine tube bend data, i.e. bend points, bend radii, angles etc? If I use "Measure" I get info on the solid, such as the tube volume. I have also tried to use the "Report" function but not sure if this can be used to extract...
