Release a Rotation

Piping Design

Rotation is a property of a handle linkage. You can use this function to allow rotation between pipe components belonging to a handle linkage.

  1. Select a pipe component from the model or the assembly tree.
  2. Select from the bottom frame of the assembly tree.

    At the same time, you can see the parts connected to each other by handle linkages in the working window.

  3. Select the context-sensitive function Unfix Rotation.
Note:
  • For example, release the rotation of both handle linkages of a T branch. Then rotate the T branch to the desired position in the pipeline by dragging the component.

  • You can rotate a pipe component to a certain angle on the pipe by defining the angle value in the handle linkage's degrees of freedom settings.
