SOLIDWORKS Routing:

  • allows you to create a special type of sub-assembly that builds a path of pipes, tubes, or electrical cables between components.
  • supports route types that require square and rectangular sections, which allows you to create routing assemblies for HVAC rigid air conditioning ducts and other user-defined mechanical styles of ducting, trunking and ducting for closed top electrical routing, cable trays for rectangular section open top ducting, etc.

The SOLIDWORKS Routing Application Programming Interface (API):

  • Allows you to automate and customize SOLIDWORKS routes.

  • Is an OLE programming interface to SOLIDWORKS Routing functionality.

  • Contains functions that you can call from Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), VB.NET, C++ 6.0, C++/CLI, and C#. These functions provide direct access to SOLIDWORKS routing functionality. It is assumed that you are familiar with at least one of these programming languages and the SOLIDWORKS Routing software.
