Plan-eta GmbH, Germany

Plan-eta GmbH is a project-planning firm working in the field of industrial media supply. The company's focus is on the design of complex supply solutions for various media such as air (cool air, combustion air, technical and medical pressurized air, etc.), water (drinking water and industrial water supply, filtration systems) and even fuels (LPG, natural gas, diesel). The planning process starts by identifying needs. This is followed by the generation of the central R&I schematic and, depending on the customers wishes, results in active 3D CAD models, isometric system representations, 3-panel projections and/or complete batches of workshop drawings with individual component displays.

Challenge

One goal involved modeling the development pathway from the planned P&IDs to the 3D-Piping and creating isometric drawings. Client-specific, non- standardized components also had to be integrated in the active design.

Solution

Component lists and BoMs can be gene-rated withSmap3D P&ID at every point during thecourse of the project. This enables fast and error-free creation of valuable component BoMs for purchasing. Data from P&ID are automatically trans-ferred into Smap3D Piping. This way, Plan-eta can also automatically check whether the process engineering and pipeline design match or deviate from one another.
