I would like to create a library of various size tube diameters and wall thickness. Can this be done by using configurations? Do I need to create a Thin Feature for each size, or just a sketch?
I created a part file containing configurations of all the tubing sizes in my company's system. The configurations are driven from a design table I created from an Excel file.
I have a separate 'master' part file for each type of tubing (round, square) I also did this for solid bar stock.
I then wrote a macro that will extract any/all of these configurations and save them as weldment profiles (.sldlfp - or any other format SW can export)
You might need to tweak the macro a bit to get it to work in your system, but here it is and one of my smaller 'master files'
