AutoCAD Plant 3D Pros and Cons

When it comes to producing accurate process diagrams, with an implementation of standards and codes in my design. It allows the validation of my design and the introduction of custom models or primitives Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Well, i think the downside of plant3D is embedded in what the tool was designed for. e.g Althoug the Process diagrams are a representation of flow, off which the connections can be validated, It doesnt necessarily output a design that can be executed on site. More software might be required to validate many other aspects of the design e.g Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Interfaz de usuario familiar para usuarios de AutoCAD, lo que implica una curva de aprendizaje baja, por otra parte la administración del software no posee tanta dificultad como otros softwares. Existe una comunidad muy grande para soporte del software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limitaciones en la base de datos, especialmente en proyectos de gran envergadura, ya que al estar basado en autocad requiere una subdivisión de archivos que dificulta un flujo de trabajo mejor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Que puedes desarrollar un proyecto en una misma interfaz sin la necesidad de explotar el archivo a otro software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Que no tenga motor se render y esto hace que tenga que exportar el volumen para hacer render y pierdo más tiempo Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When the user have to make and modify P&ID diagram and creating piping isometric drawings , Plant 3D helps to create it with ease and accurately. This also helps in managing the engineering data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For a process plant piping diagram file gets heavy due to which it takes a while to open or reopen the model file . Also when creating a database , it gets a bit tricky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This software allows to create and edit P&ID and 3D models, it can also extract piping orthographics and isometrics with the comprehensive design toolset. Multiple file can be opened in a single session. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Initial project setup takes a bit longer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plant 3D is can be used to create a big piping system in plant and that software give us 3D model before the actual installation. Iso that it generates are so good have almost every detail that need for the plant piping installation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It take large processing time. During the modeling charging its view it difficult and database management is not simply.The administration part of creating line is difficult process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All function of the plant 3D, friendly command. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

File very large and revit file cant import Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

piping design is very easy to route and equipment modelling. Modelling is very easy with accurate dimensions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In specifications pop-up window only specs long or short description will show. Identifying components bit difficult. if we add item code column in spec pop-up window easy to identify.

P &I'd some cases as per line no service or spec is not exactly executing in 3d while assigning line tags Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
