Spools

Routing provides full support for spools.

You can create spools from existing pipe and tubing routes. Spools are sections of pipes or tubes and fittings that are manufactured separately and then connected during a final assembly or construction process. You can identify the spools uniquely by name, color, and line style, associate adjacent components with spools, create drawings of spools, import route specifications from P&ID files, generate BOMs, and export spool data to the PCF file format for ISOGEN applications.

  • Defining Spools
    The command is available from the Piping and Tubing menus. This topic describes the steps from the Piping menu.
