Combined Spreading and BOP Operations

Model Reference Manual

Automatic Pipe Routing : Refining the Automatic Pipe Routes : Combined Spreading and BOP Operations

The ORDER command combines both the SPREAD and BOP operations. It spreads the pipes across the rack to give the required clearances, and then moves them into contact with the rack plane.


Examples:
ORDER /PIPES WW 100	Spreads the pipes such that the wall-to-wall clearance is 100mm and then sets the BOP positions to sit on the rack.
OR /ZONE1 FF 75	Spreads the pipes such that the Flange-to-Flange clearances are 75mm, and then sets the BOP positions to sit on the rack.
OR ALL	Repeat previously defined order sequence
