Multi-Port Flanged Manifold: Mechanical Assembly Modelled in SolidWorks

Engineers and manufacturers need accurate 3D models of complex parts before anything is machined or ordered. I modelled this multi-port manifold in SolidWorks as a complete assembly, so the design can be checked and passed on for production.
The model includes the features a real industrial part needs: a main body with several branch ports, bolted flanges with precise hole patterns, machined sealing grooves on the large flange faces, and smooth transitions between the pipe sections. One flange is shown in blue and pulled slightly away from the body, which makes it easy to see how the assembly fits together.
I can model mechanical parts, assemblies and piping components like this from sketches, measurements or existing drawings, and deliver CAD files, drawings or renders.
