Piping

[gcontreras]

Hello,

I´m using Creo 2.0 I have a pipe which runs in the x axis, and in some part of this pipe I want to connect another pipe that runs in the Y-axis. Can I make a whole in this pipe, and so connect another pipe to the first one? I have been trying to do it with branch but I can´t manage it.

Thanls a lot!

Best regards,

Edna

Hello Edna,

You have posted this question to the Integrity Community, not the Creo Community. I have moved it to the Creo Community for you. Please ensure you post to the correct community in the future.

I moved this one step further to the Piping sub-community.

Branch should work, if you have the second pipeline active and make it branch to a point on the first pipeline (or perpendicular to it).

If you want to create branching within the same pipeline, you can add a break point and then set it as start point to extend from there. However, this will split the existing pipeline at the break point, so you have three pieces.

The holes to connect the pieces are created automatically with the Pipe Solid functionality.
