"The new piping library manager enables engineers to easily and efficiently manage data for use in piping systems," said Michael Bussler, president and CEO of Algor, "Many improvements in the new version of PipePak were based on customer feedback, reflecting Algor's responsive software development philosophy." The all-new piping library manager enables engineers to add or remove items through standard Windows-based dialogs with copy and paste support as well as other Windows-style functionality.
Information in the piping library may be in any unit system and is automatically converted to the model's unit system upon application.
This release of Algor's PipePak also includes: * the added capability to specify a custom unit system; * a built-in, Windows-compliant interface for changing global analysis parameters and PipePak configuration settings; * improved control over the combination method used for occasional loads; * the added capability to specify an initial displacement to any node; and * the added consideration of mill tolerance in code checking.
