AutoCAD Training Overview
Pro/ENGINEER: Piping Design teaches students the techniques and functionality required to create pipelines using the Pro/ENGINEER Pro/PIPING module. This hands-on course contains extensive practice exercises to provide you with experience in creating solid pipe geometry within Pro/ENGINEER assembly models. This course takes you from the initial steps of setting up Line Stock files to defining pipeline parameters, creating piping assemblies, and documenting these assemblies.
AutoCAD Training Topics
- Creating Line Stock files to define pipeline parameters
- Understanding and using datum features in the piping environment
- Defining the start points of pipeline segments
- Defining a pipeline’s path by creating and selecting references
- Connecting and branching segments of a pipeline
- Modifying existing Line Stocks and pipelines
- Routing pipelines using the EZ Route functionality
- Adding fittings into pipelines
- Creating extracted solid models to represent a pipeline and its fittings
- Investigating and extracting pipeline information
- Generating deliverables by documenting piping assemblies and components in
Drawing mode
- Managing the model using Assembly mode techniques
AutoCAD Training Prerequisites
Pro/ENGINEER: Introduction to Solid Modeling I & II, and Pro/ENGINEER: Advanced Part Design & Advanced Assembly Design and Management.
