VTube-LASER can reverse engineer tube and then build that tube in SOLIDWORKS as a fully-constrained 3D parametric model. This page describes the basic steps to create an assembly from a part using VTube-LASER and SOLIDWORKS.
STEP 1: Measure One of the Parts in VTube-LASER
Measure the first pipe and create a measured tube shape.
STEP 2: Build the Part in SOLIDWORKS
Use the File tab in Measure Tube Data to send the measured part to SOLIDWORKS.
STEP 3: Save the SOLIDWORKS Part File
Save the part to a unique SOLIDWORKS part file on the disk.
