Settings: Flange Connections, Bolted (PE)

Plant Engineering > Settings > Settings > Flange connections, bolted

Use saved bolted flange connections

If this checkbox is activated, a bolted flange connection that has been used once will be saved as a KRA file, to the same sub-directory as the VAA files of the Plant Engineering parts. For the KRA file, a document master and an article master classified as a bolted flange connection, will be automatically created in the database. The following data will be saved in the article attributes:

• Nominal diameter
• Number of bolts
• Diameter of circle of bores
• Bore diameter
• Grip length (without washers)
• Selected representation options
• Standard part designations for bolts, nuts, washers

Search pattern for standard designation of bolt

Here you can enter a search pattern for the standard designation of the bolts to be found (e.g. "DIN"). When searching for an already existing, matching bolting, not just the values listed above will be used as search criteria, but also the search pattern for the standard designation.
