Hi All

 

My first post.

 

Is it posible to create a start_part for piping with code [program or relations] to create a datum_plane at spool first and last length?

What I am trying to achieve is to do a end treatment of the pipe fast and easy.

See attache picture.

 

Program Creo 2.0 Parametric with piping extention.

You might consider UDF ...user defined feature.

Thanks for the answer.

I am using UDF wiht a family table for all dimensions, to create the features.

But the UDF requires a Datum_plane to place the "revolve sketch".

What I am trying to achieve is to automate the process through a script or simmilar in the start_part.prt

Does this make any sense at all ?

    What kind of relation do you want for this plane prior to creating the part?
