OPM_DEFAULT_WELD_SPHERE_RADIUS Change the sphere radius as per requirement. Let's change it to 10mm for example. Save the changes in PCF file and re-launch OpenPlant Modeler. Place components again to verify the result. To Update Existing Welds In case, the weld size is modified in the middle of the project, you might need to update the size of existing welds in the model. To update the existing welds in the model you can apply this key-in command "bmech rebuild all" which will update all the welds in one go. Please see below one example.
