SolidWorks Routing – Piping Module
SolidWorks Live Web Instructor Led Training
The SolidWorks Routing – Piping Module web course teaches you how to model tubing, welded pipe and threaded pipe routes using the SolidWorks Routing add-in. The course begins with a review of some advanced level SolidWorks modeling practices, covers tube and pipe routes and ends with some specific how-to’s for common routing situations.
