Tube and pipe custom bend automatic

Good afternoon,

 

I have a question about the tube and pipe module.

I have created a custom bende pipe with an OD of 273mm and wall thickness 10, bend radius =381.

When I create a route between two points the module does not create the shortest route between the selected points. In this case it is possible to create the pipe with two 44 degrees bends and a short pipe instead of routing with 5 segments and 90 degree bends

 

Is it possible to generete a route with custom angles?

 

Many thanks for your answers.

Hi, long time T&P user here.  Are you using the Auto Route feature to build these routes?  If so, Right Mouse click on the route in your model browser and choose Convert to Sketch.  From there you can edit the values, add or remove constraints, and "tweak" the route to exactly what you want.  What version of inventor are you currently using?
