Siemens NX Mechanical Routing Essential Training

Mechanical routing is the process of designing and defining the paths for fluid flow systems, such as piping, tubing, conduits, raceways, and steelwork. It can help reduce time to market by allowing users to design and validate routed systems virtually before building them. The Routing Electrical program allows you to quickly define assemblies placed parts around and through other NX assemblies.

These subassemblies typically define the systems that provide power or signals, deliver fluids, dispose of waste, provide structural support to the devices in the assembly. NX provides mechanical and electrical routed system design tools and example libraries for tubing, piping, conduit, raceway, devices, signals and steelwork. Mechanical routed system models are fully associative to NX assemblies to facilitate design changes.

Automated Bills of Material and bend reports provide information for subsystem manufacturing. Time to market is greatly reduced by eliminating the need to take physical measurements before starting the design of the routed subsystem. Here are some features of mechanical & electrical routing:Design 2D and 3D routing subsystems: Users can design 2D logical and 3D routing subsystems within 3D mechanical models.

Automatically calculate cut lengths: Users can automatically calculate cut lengths for their designs. Create a Bill of Material (BOM): Users can automatically generate a complete BOM for their designs. Define paths: Users can define paths for piping and other systems around and through other assemblies.
