Overview
SPOOLGEN is a
system designed for use by fabrication workshops and has workflow management
built in as standard to aid the production of spool isometrics and related
reports. Many of the features and benefits of I-Sketch are applicable to
SPOOLGEN, as ISOGEN is an integral part of the solution.
Some of the main
features of the system are:
Uses IDF or PCF data files
from any 3D Design System supporting ISOGEN
Windows NT
Automatic Spool Sheets +
Erection Isometrics
Automatic BOM + Sheet
splitting
Interface to Material
Control (yours)
Extensive Automation of data
input and machine interfaces
Weld detailing and
documentation
Weight accumulation, C of G
calculation
Transposition of material
codes
Links to Material Management
systems
Return file of fabrication
and construction data to design system
Input from paper – I-Copy
and I-Sketch
Auto Long Straight Splitting
Addition of Drawing Splits,
Flow Arrows, Detail Sketches and Additional Materials without compromising
the integrity of the design
Support for multiple weld
types i.e. Site, Field Fit, Offshore, Tack, Automatic, and Special Site
Weld
Ability to change material
category from fabrication to erection and vice versa.
Ability to change elbows to
bends
Ability to set flanges to
loose
Benefits
SPOOLGEN has been
widely adopted in the industry for the production of spool isometrics. As well
as delivering the same benefits as I-Sketch, the following benefits are also available:
Proven savings
It usually takes 5
to 20 minutes to process each pipe including the addition of spooling and
fabrication information. Once completed, spool and erection drawings are
generated in seconds.
A typical pipe
could be processed and 4 spool drawings generated in 15 minutes compared with
2.5 hours on AutoCAD or 1 hour with a standard isometric package.
Workflow Delivered
as Standard
One of the biggest
issues of any project is managing the information workflow. SPOOLGEN has been
designed with workflow being a key consideration, guiding users through each
stage of the process. This is delivered as standard with the system ensuring
minimal implementation time and reducing the learning curve required to operate
the system.
Guaranteed Future
IDF Compatibility
Alias Limited own
and control the IDF standard for piping information and as such can guarantee
future system compatibility.
