Steve, It might be difficult to do this with the first release. We haven't provided tools for adding new component types yet.

Wrote in message news:6248437@discussion.autodesk.com. For me to consider purchasing Plant 3D, I must be able to use sanitary fittings (ie: Tri-Clamp od tube, 95% of fittings used in my designs). Since you will not have in initial release; how difficult would it be for me to create myself with 3D solids I currently posses? Secondly, when do you forsee sanitary fittings being added into a future release? Thanks, Steve.

So here is how I did: 1. Project settings: Plant 3D DWG settings / Piping connection settings I changed the Flanged connection to Tri-clamp. Remove the bolt set from the fasteners and add clamp instead.

Jan 7, 2015 - When creating plumbing systems, Revit does not have a default way of showing where the piping changes from sanitary system to a vent system. This was easy to do in AutoCAD since we just used a different line type or a layer with a different line type to differentiate the vent portion. Revit wants to show. 24 Jan 2017- Explore albisflanges's board 'Flanges and fittings' on Pinterest. See more ideas about Mechanical design, Stainless steel flanges and Autodesk inventor.

So actually I sacrifised the flange connection to clamp, but you can create a new one. Remove the pressure class and facing from the property matches. In the compound joints in the autoflange: Remove the pressure class and facing restrictions. And set up according to this: 2.Create a ferrule and gasket: In the Spec Editor you need to open a pipes and fittings calatog and create or copy a flange component: In the General Poperties / Connection port properties the end type is FL Same with the gasket but: The gasket end type is UndefiniedET.

3.Create the clamp: In a custom parts catalog copy a clamp and change to tri-clamp: The end type is UniversalET. It is also possible to replace the default clamp geometry to real tri clamp. This is how it looks when everything works: Roughly that is how you can start in nutshell. Of course this was a quick trainig. If you have further question let me know.
