Features

Design routed systems more quickly. SolidWorks Routing enables you to quickly and easily design pipe, tube, and electrical routes in your product designs. Key timesaving tools include:

Intuitive creation and modification of routed systems, including drag-and-drop placement, automatic sizing of components (parts or assemblies), copying and mirroring of routes, and autoinsertion of piping bends and elbows.
Fast, easy 3D parametric modeling of tubing, piping, and electrical cable and harness systems within complex product or equipment designs.
Autorouting of flexible tube, hose, and electrical cable and harness segments, along with rigid pipe, tube, and electrical conduit, directly or through mounting clips and hangers.
Timesaving library of ready-made tubing, piping, and electrical cabling and harnessing components.
Automatic creation of engineering drawings and bills of materials with complete information, including cut lengths for pipe and tube routes.
Specialized capabilities including creation of bend data files for CNC tube- and pipebending machines and efficient creation of penetration cuts involving pipes and tubes.
Easy reuse of data created with electrical CAD software and other tools when creating new cable and harness route designs, importing data conveniently in Microsoft® Excel format.
