|
Field Name | Description |
PRO_UNIT_SYS | Creo Parametric units system used for the data file. |
SIZE | Pipe nominal diameter. |
RADIUS | Bend radius. |
RATIO | Ratio between the bend radius and the pipe outside diameter. |
MIN_RADIUS | Minimum bend radius. |
MAX_RADIUS | Maximum bend radius. |
MIN_ANGLE | Minimum bend angle. |
MAX_ANGLE | Maximum bend angle. |
The Bending Spring Back and Elongation file units of measurement must be the same as those in the Pipe Outer Diameter file. |
Field Name | Description |
PRO_UNIT_SYS | Creo Parametric units system used for the data file. |
SIZE | Pipe nominal diameter. |
RADIUS | Bend radius. |
ANGLE | Bend angle in degree. |
SPRING_BACK_LEN | Spring back length. |
ELONGATION_LENGTH | Elongation Length. |
The Bend Machine file units of measurement must be the same as those in the Pipe Outer Diameter file. |
FIELD NAME | DESCRIPTION |
PRO_UNIT_SYS | Creo Parametric units system used for the data file. |
SIZE | Pipe nominal diameter. |
START_CLAMP_LEN | Minimum clamp length required before the first bend of the pipe spool. Design rule: The length of the start segment should be equal or longer than this value. |
MID_CLAMP_LEN | Minimum clamp length required between two bends of the pipe spool. Design rule: The length of the middle segment should be equal or longer than this value. |
END_CLAMP_LEN | Minimum clamp length after the last bend of the pipe spool. Design rule: The length of the end segment should be equal or longer than this value. |
ARC_THRESHOLD | The angle that determines the dimensioning scheme of the bend. Design rule: The bend angles that are larger or equal to it are dimensioned based on the arc center point. The bend angles that are smaller than it are dimensioned based on the theoretical intersection point of the bend. |
The vertex angle must be greater than the minimum miter angle (MIN_ANGLE) and less than or equal to the maximum miter angle (MAX_ANGLE). |
The unit of measurement in the Miter file is defined using the Units System Directory File. |
Field Name | Description |
PRO_UNIT_SYS | Creo Parametric units system used for the data file. |
SIZE | Pipe nominal diameter |
RADIUS | Radius of the miter |
MIN_ANGLE | Minimum miter angle |
MAX_ANGLE | Maximum miter angle |
CUT_NUMBER | Number of miter cuts |
