Polypropylene piping system example
This command contains detailed views for threaded, pressed, copper and plastic pipes. In the current program version the data layout has changed. The current data layout is prepared in accordance to the size of pipes, thank to which it is a lot easier to design the installation with a certain diameter, as well as, it is possible to automatically join pipes with elbows and tees.
A system of pressed pipes and fittings for steel pipes which allows for convenient drawing of installations with automatic insertion of appropriate elbows (12 – 108 mm.) has been added to the program. In addition, a possibility to connect this system with other installations (by using the threaded or flanged fittings) has been added to the program.

User has the possibility to insert single objects and to draw whole sequences of pipes with automatic insertion of appropriate elbows.

Sequence with 90˚ elbows |
Sequence with 45˚ elbows |
When drawing sequences only elbows that are available in the database are being inserted. Because of that it may happen that the program will correct the length of inserted pipe sections in such a way that it will be possible to draw it with standard elbows (mostly, only 45° and 90° elbows are available).
Correction of pipe sections when indicating consecutive points:
Graphical layout and the base dialog window functions used for drawing pipe systems is the same as in the Parametrical armature) dialog window.
