Pipe Material passed to Sleeve Parameter or 'element' filters' in sleeve settings.

1 votes

There are times when we have to pass the 'material' of the pipe that is passing through the sleeve to the sleeve itself. During automated sleeve placement, the round sleeve grabs the pipe diameter and insulation information of the associated pipe it is inserting on. Can we pass the fabrication material? Or the Fabrication part name?

This would really only pertain to fabrication pipe work.

Under the current workflow, when we need to relay the Sleeve size and the material type passing through (i.e. Hydroflame Sleeves), we would need set the sleeve settings to the appropriate sleeve > ensure we are only selecting pipe of the intended material > run the sleeve insert > repeat for every other type of material.

If we had 'element' filters in sleeves, that would be helpful, but would still require multiple sleeve types/families.

But it might be best to just be able to know what the sleeve is associated with - they we would only need 1 sleeve possibly.
