Question

About the pipe slope in creo pipe design

I am use Creo 5.0.

I know in Creo, there is a solution for this pipe slope problem:

 "Slope Mark" in pipe model or drawing ,

This can solve the installation problem.

In food and pharmaceutical area, its a normal requirement for pipe slope.

Some lines even not allowed horizontal pipe exist .

Now we dont show the slope in 3D model.

We cant use the 3D pipe model make manufacturing drawing.

Also some times, if the line is long and space is limited, offten have some interference problems in workshop or site.

So if there any way to make "slope" angle in 3D model and use standard welding elbow?.

Hello @vnamboodheri , I apologize for my poor English .

Could you please take a look at this article first:

In the pharmaceutical field, most horizontal piping needs to have a certain slope angle,

and according to GMP standard, these elbows should use BPE welding elbows.

However, when using the CREO piping,

I am unable to represent this slope with standard elbow in 3D.

Currently, we are using part design function to make the model.

You know ,its very difficulty to modify.

So, I was wondering if it would be possible to have a corresponding feature in the piping module that can conveniently display the slope while still using standard welding elbows.

 

ps. this is my first time use chatgpt to translation my words, is it ok?

Maybe you can use some api codes in your web page,
