Purpose

We want to be able to reuse Equipment designed in Solidwork and reuse it with 3DExperience CATIA Piping 3D App. 

We will add Piping port information with 3DExperience CATIA Piping 3D App on the Solidwork native model stored in the database

We want to be able to easily have the added piping port information associative with the Solidworks geometry to be able to just update it if the Solidworks model has a modification

Equiment Case

Piping Part Case

Reuse Solidworks Flange Part geometry to create the Piping Flange containing all necessary added information to have the part working with 3DEXP CATIA Piping 3D App .

This practice will allows you to have the CATIA Piping Part link wit hthe Solidworks model so in case of SW model change the piping part can be easily/automatically updated (thanks to the contextual links beween the 2 models

If you don't want to have the link bewteen the 2 models, then just copy /past as reslt the 3D SW geometry into the CATIA part
