!new! - Intergraph Smartplant Spoolgen

Spoolgen eliminates manual drafting entirely. It reads the underlying data of the engineering design. Fabricators simply point and click to define where shop welds and field welds will occur. The software automatically splits the line into spools and regenerates all necessary documentation. Key Features and Capabilities 1. Automated Spool Generation

: It imports data via standard formats like Piping Component Files (PCF) or Intermediate Data Files (IDF) .

: SmartPlant SpoolGen facilitates the creation of detailed isometric drawings and manages material takeoffs. This ensures accuracy in material procurement and reduces waste.

Spoolgen produces fabrication-ready isometrics that include: intergraph smartplant spoolgen

In the complex world of industrial engineering, the handover from design to fabrication is often a bottleneck. (now known as Intergraph Spoolgen ) addresses this by automating the creation of piping isometric drawings specifically for fabrication and erection. Built on the industry-standard Isogen engine, it allows fabricators to transform engineering designs into production-ready spool drawings without the need for manual redrawing. Key Capabilities and Features

Varying drafting styles across different technicians.

"Fabricators keep modifying the spool splits in the shop without updating the model." Solution: Enforce "as-built capture." Use Spoolgen Mobile (companion app) to record field changes and sync back to the master spool model. Spoolgen eliminates manual drafting entirely

Intergraph SmartPlant SpoolGen has been successfully deployed in various projects worldwide, across different sectors of the process industries. Companies have reported significant improvements in fabrication efficiency, material management, and project timelines. For instance, a leading EPC firm utilized SmartPlant SpoolGen in a major refinery project, achieving a 30% reduction in spool fabrication time and a 25% decrease in material costs. Such success stories underscore the value of SmartPlant SpoolGen in delivering projects on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards.

Owners demand as-built 3D models. Spoolgen feeds weld maps and NDE reports directly into the plant lifecycle management system (SmartPlant Foundation), satisfying ISO 19650 and BIM requirements.

During the engineering phase, designers create a complete 3D model of a plant's piping network. However, a fabrication shop cannot build an entire piping system at once. They must break it down into manageable, transportable segments called (assemblies of pipes, elbows, flanges, and valves welded together in a shop). The software automatically splits the line into spools

, the industry standard for automated piping isometric generation. Spool Definition

During the engineering phase, piping is designed in continuous lines that span an entire facility. However, a pipe cannot be shipped or installed as a single mile-long piece. It must be broken down into manageable, transportable segments called , which are welded together in a fabrication shop and then shipped to the construction site. Traditional Workflow Challenges

Spoolgen does not just output PDF drawings. It can generate data outputs like cutting lists for automated pipe sawing machines, nesting data, and direct XML/CSV material streams for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES).
