Routing Component Wizard - Routing Geometry Dialog Box

You can use the Routing Geometry dialog box to add, edit, or delete routing geometry, such as vertical axes and alignment axes.

Routing geometry is for special features that are used by the route. The features and dimensions must have the exact names as indicated by the wizard. For example, BendRadius@ElbowArc in an elbow determines the bend radius for each configuration of the elbow.

The wizard shows the geometry that is required and optional for each component.

Select the correct Component type in Routing Component Wizard - Route and Component Types Dialog Box dialog box, to set the type of component, and determine the required features.

The Routing Geometry option is available only if the components have special geometry such as vertical axis, axis of rotation, and elbow arc.

To display this dialog box, do one of the following:
  • Click Tools > Routing > Routing Tools > Routing Library Manager, and click Routing Component Wizard .
  • From the Windows Start menu, go to SOLIDWORKS Tools version > SOLIDWORKS version Routing Library Manager > Routing Component Wizard .
