CADMATIC 3D Plant Design
CADMATIC 3D Plant Design provides advanced tools for modelling process plants, piping, equipment, HVAC ducts, cable trays and steel structures. Rule-based automation, P&ID integration and multi-user collaboration reduce manual work, improve accuracy and keep the model, data and documentation coordinated.
CADMATIC 3D Plant Design supports plant engineering from the early design stages through to production. It enables users to develop layouts, position equipment, route piping and systems, detect clashes and automatically generate isometrics, drawings, material lists and technical documentation.
It is designed for engineering companies, EPC contractors, plant designers, equipment manufacturers and industrial operators. Its multi-user environment allows teams, offices and external partners to work simultaneously on the same project.

Benefits
Speed
Assisted routing and automated tools reduce the time required to model, modify and document complex industrial plants throughout every phase of the project.
Automation
Isometrics, drawings and material lists are generated directly from the 3D model, reducing manual operations and repetitive design tasks throughout the project.
Accuracy
Integrated specifications, rules and checks keep components and connections consistent, reducing errors and subsequent correction work.
Consistency
P&ID diagrams, 3D models and documentation share coordinated and updated data throughout every stage of the project.
Production
The model generates isometrics, spools, drawings and complete material lists, directly supporting subsequent fabrication and assembly activities.
Coordination
Piping, structures, ducts and cable trays are designed in one environment, facilitating work across different engineering disciplines.
Reliability
Automated checks and clash detection identify inconsistencies, collisions and potential critical issues at an early stage, before production activities begin.
Scalability
The system maintains stable performance and fast response times when managing extensive, complex plant models and large amounts of project data.
Collaboration
Teams, offices and external partners can work on the same model, sharing coordinated and continuously updated information.
Features
Plant modelling
Design structures, equipment, piping and plant systems within a single coordinated 3D model.
Pipe routing
Create and modify pipe routes using components, specifications and connections integrated into the model.
Model management
Isolate and analyse specific model areas to inspect components, spaces and project information.
