● Results table:
– The table analyzes whether the geometry can be calculated:
– If the start object is a pipe spec or the base object of a pipe spec element: The geometry
– If the start object comes from the pipe part catalog: The geometry for the nominal

Checking the pipe part geometry for errors

Procedure
To check whether the geometry attributes of a pipe part have been calculated correctly for a
given nominal diameter, proceed as follows:
1. Open the "Error analysis for 3D objects" plugin. The "Detail evaluation" tab is active.
2. Drag&drop an object into the "Analyzed object" field. You have the following options:
– 3D engineering object
– Base object from the pipe part catalog
– Base object of a pipe part within a pipe spec
3. Set the important values for the geometry calculation via the plugin's toolbar.
4. Start the calculation.
5. Use the results to identify the error sources.

Green check mark: Geometry calculated correctly
Red "X": Geometry not calculated correctly
is checked for the nominal diameter range specified by the pipe spec.
diameter range specified by the pipe part on the "Display for nominal diameter range"
tab is checked.
