Defining The Part

Color Code

1. After importing a solid model, the part will appear with contoured lines, arcs and circles. These are color coded to help you to identify certain sections of the tubing.

- Yellow Lines: Indicate the centerline of the tubing.

- Blue Lines: Indicate the arcs and circles of the tubing.

- Red Lines: Indicate the straights within the length of tubing.

Material Definition

1. The Select Material: drop down menu will be grayed out until the user has fully tracked the imported part. Once the part is tracked, it will need to be assigned a material which matches its Defined: outer diameter and wall thickness.

2. The Material: section will show which material is chosen from the Select Material: drop down menu above. The Outside Diameter (OD) of the material will be shown next to the orange icon and the Material Wall Thickness will be shown next to the blue icon.

3. The Defined: section will show which material is applied to the part after importing. The detected Outside Diameter (OD) of the material will be shown next to the orange icon and the detected Material Wall Thickness will be shown next to the blue icon.
