Export to AutoCAD
- [Instructor] Now that we've modeled some piping, what do you want to do with it? Do you want to create just a solid so you can see in your AutoCAD model? Or do you want to bring it into CAD design program like CadWorx or AutoPLANT and use it to create intelligent models for redesign or perhaps just extract tie points. To do this, we're going to take the Kubit shapes that we modeled and export them to AutoCAD solids that we can then view inside any AutoCAD based program. And there's the piece of piping that we did the Apply Constraints to. So, now we're ready to export that. So to do that, we're going to go to the Export panel. So we're going to be working with the piping systems. So, I'm going to come down to AutoCAD. So we want to take this solid and export that out so we can use it in, for example, CADWorx or AutoPLANT. So, we've got a number of options in here. We can Export polylines, we can just modify this so it's just centerlines that we have. We can create 3D solids. We can…
