About Working with Parametric Weld Symbols
You can show weld symbols in drawings for welds that were created in Welding, as well as redefine the system-supplied parametric weld symbols to improve your flexibility and productivity.
Showing Symbols for Welds Created in Welding
You can show and erase weld symbols in drawings that correspond to welds that were created in an assembly using Welding. You can also do the following:
Modify the number of decimal places (num digits) shown in dimensions contained within a weld feature.
Add or delete leader lines to weld symbols.
To display weld symbols from Welding in drawings according to the ANSI or ISO standard, set the value of the Detail option weld_symbol_standard to STD_ANSI or STD_ISO, respectively.
Restrictions on the Use of Weld Symbols in Drawings
When you are working with weld symbols, the following restrictions apply:
The display of the weld feature does not affect the display of the weld symbol, and it does not update its point of attachment when you blank, resume, erase, or show the weld feature. However, when the system first shows a weld symbol, its default attachment adapts to the display status of its feature.
The system shows a weld symbol only once in a drawing, similar to assembly geometric tolerances and surface finishes.
Revision 15.0 and later revisions support the following compound welding symbols:
Reinforced Welds: square groove, bevel groove, flared bevel groove, and J-groove (all reinforced welds can also be two-sided).
Two-sided Welds: fillet, square groove, V-groove, bevel groove, U-groove, J-groove, flared V-groove, flared bevel groove.
