Piping 3D - Lifecycle management

Context

In this page we will talk about the lifecycle management of Piping 3D assembly without taking into account any Schematic data

Before starting with lifecycle management for piping , you must have a good understanding of piping  data organization and  piping object links . see dedicated page here

 

Usecase 1 : single pipe revision

There is no specificities concerning the revision of pipe compare to any other data

warning: 

When doing new revision for pipe, it is not recommended to reinstantiate the revised pipe into the assembly because. 

  • it will not ensure to reroute correctly the links
  • the instantiated pipe can't be edited 

If for any reason you want anyway to instantiate multiple revision of the same pipe into the assembly, then you must revise the "Equiped tube" assembly or place your tube into a shell product,  revise both and insert the revised product  

Usecase2 : Pipe assembly revision 

In General when starting to create a new revision and replace it in your assembly, you must ensure that you have loaded in session all the objects that have some link wih the objects that will be revised ; this will allows to automaticaly reroot the links

 

Usecase3 : Spool revision management
