AutoPLANT Modeler CONNECT Edition
AutoCAD-based 3D Plant Design and Modeling
AutoPLANT Modeler CONNECT Edition Update 2 Enhancement is now available, and compatible with AutoCAD 2020.
AutoPLANT Modeler CONNECT Edition is an AutoCAD-based Plant Design suite of all sizes or complexities.
AutoPLANT Modeler CONNECT Edition includes modules in this installation package are;
- AutoPLANT Piping – Spec-driven 3D design of piping with advanced routing and editing features. Drawing production includes orthographic (plans, elevations, and sections) using paper space viewports and exporting 3D model data to produce finished isometric drawings. In addition to an extensive catalog of piping components, this application can also place 3D pipe supports, instruments, conduit, cable tray, and HVAC components. Please refer to the AutoPLANT Help for more information.
- AutoPLANT Equipment – Fast layout and design of intelligent equipment vessels and nozzles. Full pipe connectivity, extensive equipment library, and easily designed custom assemblies.
- AutoPLANT Raceways – Fully-featured 3D electrical layout and design application including conduit and cable tray specifications. Note: This application is a subset of the component modules available to the Piping application.
- AutoPLANT Isometrics – Object-based drawing tools used to create isometric drawings without a 3D model using the same piping specs as the full 3D piping application.
Dependencies are:
- Design integration - ProjectWise Design Integration CONNECT Edition - Client Setups
- Intelligent Isometric extraction - OpenPlant Isometrics Manager CONNECT Edition x64 (SES) Update 4

Capabilities
- Conduct 3D interference analysis
- Design a 3D plant physical model
- Generate plant project deliverables
- Manage plant design data
- Manage plant project documents and deliverables
- Perform collaborative plant engineering
Conduct 3D interference analysis
Increase accuracy with automatic clash detection across 3D piping, structure, equipment, electrical, and HVAC. Use Bentley Navigator to review clash detection and solve clashes prior to construction.
Design a 3D plant physical model
Provide accuracy and speed that reduces time to construction and eliminates field rework with 3D models. You can use these models for executing greenfield projects, retrofitting designs, and visualizing existing facilities.
Generate plant project deliverables
Automatically generate detailed drawings with configurable bills of material, eliminating manual take-offs. Generate reports for pipe, support, equipment, and instrument lists.
Manage plant design data
Seamlessly integrate with other plant design management applications via project databases. Use a database environment for plant design data across the project team.
Manage plant project documents and deliverables
Efficiently manage plant design data and deliverables including isometrics, orthographic, piping and instrumentation diagrams, 3D models, and construction deliverables. Share documents across the project team using ProjectWise.
Perform collaborative plant engineering
Interoperability ensures plant design data and construction deliverables are available anytime for project team members to quickly find, share, and use. The collaborative environment allows users to check out model components, make updates, and check them in.
