This cutting-edge solution facilitates multi-discipline collaboration in the cloud, equipping teams with the necessary tools to enhance engineering and design efficiency while minimizing rework.
Key Benefits of Aveva E3D Design
1. Greater Engineering Efficiency: By amalgamating engineering, design, and simulation data into a data-centric model of your plant, designers can swiftly identify and address clashes between different disciplines.
2. Superior Change Management: The software streamlines project management with thorough change history and real-time visibility of multidiscipline updates, including alterations to linked schematics and datasheets.
3. Reduced Engineering Rework: Designing alongside all disciplines within a single data-centric environment allows for the comprehensive detection of clashes, thereby eliminating costly on-site rework during the design phase.
Key Features of Aveva E3D Design
1. Import and Design with Laser Scan Technology: Users can seamlessly import and interact with data from any laser scanner, encompassing traditional static scanners and mobile, airborne, and hand-held devices from various manufacturers.
2. Automatic Cross-Discipline Updates: The software enables the direct integration of data from AVEVA engineering and schematics tools, triggering alerts within the tools for respective teams to implement when project updates occur.
3. Generate Reports and Drawings from the 3D Model: Users can automatically generate drawings and reports from the 3D model, saving time and ensuring the construction relies on validated, up-to-date information.
4. Verify Construction Alongside Design Intent: Integrated photorealistic laser scan data in the design environment enables users to accurately verify modification, design, and construction status against the design intent as construction progresses.
5. Automatic Cable Routing: AVEVA E3D Design integrates with electrical discipline capabilities, facilitating accurate cable routing according to design rules and cable lengths.
