Intergraph Smartplant Spoolgen -
Intergraph SmartPlant Spoolgen
is an industrial-strength application developed by Hexagon PPM (formerly Intergraph) that automates the creation of piping isometric drawings for fabrication and erection. Built on Isogen® technology—the industry standard for automated piping isometrics—it bridges the gap between detailed engineering design and shop-floor fabrication. Core Purpose and Industrial Role
- Bevel profiles for pipe ends.
- Fit-up rotations for branch connections.
- Direct interfaces for pipe cutting/beveling machines (e.g., Vermeer, Vernet, HGG).
: Provides a scaled 3D view of piping data to check connectivity and help place field welds. Flexible Exports : Delivers drawings in standard formats including AutoCAD (.dxf) MicroStation (.dgn) SmartSketch Comprehensive Reports intergraph smartplant spoolgen
: prefabricated sections of pipe and components that are welded together in a controlled shop environment before being shipped to the construction site. Bevel profiles for pipe ends
In massive construction projects like oil refineries, power plants, or offshore rigs, the piping system is far too complex to be built as a single unit. Instead, it is broken down into : Provides a scaled 3D view of piping
Reduced Rework:
By automating the spooling process, it dramatically cuts down on manual data entry and human error.
