CATIA – Piping Schematic to Design product enables the user to design and manage logical lines of piping systems using standards and specifications according to industry usage. It enables creation of component catalogs with multi-representation, attributes and design rules. The system engineer creates intelligent schematics piping diagrams.
Fully integrated, the piping designer builds the 3D design directly from 2D diagrams (2D/3D driven). Theses intelligent diagrams and 3D design capability enable users to create and validate their designs with respect to company know-how.
This product covers project engineering from basic design up to detailed design.
Piping versus Tubing: Piping standard components such as valves and flanges are welded or bolted with straight pipes.
Creates catalogs of 2D and 3D parametric components according to standards and material specifications
Defines and manages piping lines for different engineering systems
Creates intelligent piping and instrumentation diagrams with respect to standards and specifications such as text annotation templates, off-sheets connector and automatic gaps
Designs the 3D preliminary piping layout routes with design rules checking (minimun length and turn)
Adds spec-driven 3D piping components to detail the design
Allows associative 3D creation directly driven by the 2D schematics
