CATIA V4 Equipment Design (EQT) allows you to build and manage intelligent equipment and nozzle representations used in power, process and ship plants. It has been designed to be fully integrated with the CATIA/CADAM Plant applications. In a single operation, you can easily place and orient fully defined equipment from a user-defined library. The system allows you to modify object definitions including geometry, data, and attributes through a specification sheet or with a comprehensive set of tools, which also allows parametrics.
Features
- Build and manage intelligent representation of equipment and nozzles
- Integrated linkage to piping specifications via intelligent connectors (such as nozzles)
- Productive tools to dynamically modify plant model equipment
- Constraint-based modeling of equipment
- Comprehensive reporting capabilities
- Equipment project library integration with Virtual Product Management (AVM) Database
- National language and multi-platform support
Key customer benefits
-
Constraint based parametric modeling
With EQT, you can easily create nozzles and process plant equipment such as boilers, vertical vessels, compressors, pumps and heat exchangers. Designers can quickly define the equipment geometry parametrically with 3D shapes, 3D wire frames, solids or surfaces and attach data and attributes adding intelligence to the object.
-
Starter set
The product comes with initial, customizable library templates for standard nozzle types and equipment including vessels, heat exchangers, motors, drives and pumps.
-
Piping catalog changes
Discrepancies between the design model and changes in the Piping Catalog are highlighted.
-
Quick plant arrangement
Designers can generate and place equipment in a model through a single operation. Using library objects, data, coordinates and nozzle alignments, designers can locate and orient the equipment relative to other existing objects and structures.
-
Visualization and geometric options
Equipment may be visualized and defined with several graphic representations. Visualization options include: wire frame, hidden lines removed, shaded image, or realistic shading, all under user control. In addition, geometric shape definitions for equipment can have multi-discipline, graphical representations.
-
Specification sheets
Linked data sheets, similar to spread sheets, store the specification data for the equipment. Because the information is linked between the data sheet and the model, users have the option of modifying the information in the data sheet or editing the equipment model knowing that the data will remain consistent.
-
Multi-platform and national language support (NLS)
The AEC Plant Design product offers multi-platform support, which includes selected IBM, Hewlett Packard, SGI, and SUN workstations. National language support has been enhanced to respect the ISO code page 8859 for menus and messages, allowing function key customization to read in any modern national language.
