Hey everyone -

I am currently working in NX 2406 / TC2406. I have been working on a routing assembly that is made up of about 15 different tubes. There is not much info out there I have found about this topic so I wanted to see if any experts have some good tips or advice.

I have a good grasp of setting up mechanical runs and having them set up in the model. I am wondering what the most efficient way to create drawings would be. Is there a way to seperate each "run" or spool on a drawing if they are all modeled in the same subassy? For example, in my screenshot I have set up 6 runs of pipe stock that are within the same assy. I want to be able to put each run on its own sheet where I can add a bend table. Is there anyway to separate them like that or is it best practice to make each tube have its own part number?

Any input is appreciated!!!
