Prior to Version 18, Solid Edge shipped with a free complement of standard parts to illustrate what was available in the add-on libraries. Two such libraries were available. The machinery library catered for items such as fasteners and bearings whilst the Piping library contained pipe fittings that could be used in conjunction with the XpresRoute piping application. Both add-on libraries used to be additional cost items. However from version 18 onwards Solid Edge has included the full Machinery Library with every license of Solid Edge Classic. This ‘How To’ covers the steps required for configuring a centralised installation of the Machinery Library.
