AutoCAD Plant 3D includes the tools and capabilities required by plant designers to develop plant models, including pipe structures and equipment.
Furthermore, whatever you build in AutoCAD may be a reference to the Plant 3D model, resulting in a full digital picture of your industrial plan facility.
It is not only possible to model with AutoCAD Plant 3D, but it is also possible to generate construction documents such as isometric drawings and a Bill of Materials based on the model. A model can be used to generate drawings such as floor plans, elevations, sections, and other orthographic drawings.
Various applications of Plant 3D
In addition to creating and editing piping and instrumentation diagrams as part of AutoCAD Plant 3D, the tools of AutoCAD plant 3D also enable you to model 3D models, extract piping orthographic and isometric views, and work with a set of tools that are industry-specific.
Diagram of piping and instruments
A pipe and instrumentation diagram is a project deliverable that is frequently used. Proper synchronization between P&ID and BIM model limits the risk of error.
This is how Plant 3D can be helpful in P&ID workflows:-
Collaboration for Plant 3D: Real-time cloud-based plant design collaboration occurs throughout the project team, enabling needed compliance in the Common Data Environment.
This allows for design cooperation among many professions as well as instant access to any building document from anywhere in the world.
Intelligence drafting: AutoCAD Plant 3D makes it simple to build intelligent P&IDs by simply picking industry-standard symbols from the tool palette and dragging them onto the drawing.
Also helps in data validation: When AutoCAD Plan 3D is validated regularly by scanning P&IDs, common errors can be quickly verified according to project standards, resulting in the consistency of the data.
