elecworks 2018 – Wire Routing Bend Radius Utilised Within elecworks™ For PTC Creo

By Miles Nicholson

When routing wires/cables within elecworks™ for PTC Creo using the command 

You can define the Default bend radius factor

However this value is ONLY used to calculate wire/cable bend radius if the size is not defined within 

The default bend radius is calculated by multiplying the Bend radius x Cabling diameter.
As stated above, if a minimum Bend radius for the wire/cable is defined in the project Wire styles database this value is used for automatic routing and the Default bend radius factor in the Routing Options is ignored.
