Smap3D Plant Design provides three main components in a single software solution for an integrated process design chain: Smap3D P&ID, Smap3D Piping and Smap3D Isometric.
Depending on the individual requirements these specialized programs can be used individually or together with Smap3D transferring data between the individual programs. A separate export or import of data is not needed.
At the same time, Smap3D Plant Design enables a centralized, as well as company and project-specific, definition of pipe specifications. This is an essential baseline that ensures standard, or customer specific, piping and associated components are used in the design process.
This in turn assures the quality and reliability of the final plant design while keeping design and manufacturing costs down. With predefined pipe specifications, the conformity of associated components such as valves and other fittings to these standard sizes is assured.
Smap3D Plant Design consists of the following tools and applications:
Installation Checker - Smap3D Plant Design suite installation and settings validation
Plant Design Administrator - Smap3D Plant Design settings management
P&ID - Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams creation
Pipe Specification Editor - pipe specification files management
Coordinate System Wizard - creation of specific coordinate systems and axes for custom piping parts
Component Wizard - making custom parts applicable for Smap3D Plant Design applications
ScanToCAD - transformation of 3D scan data to CAD applications
Piping - creating 3D models of piping systems
Virtual Characteristic Writer - management of custom virtual characteristics of occurences within Piping assemblies
Isometric - generation of isometric drawings of pipelines and piping systems
PCFExport - generation of Piping Component Files (PCF) out of pipelines and piping systems
Electrical
The availability of some applications may depend on the purchased license and the selection made during the Smap3D Plant Design installation.
