Spoolgen is delivered with a suite of products and tools that complement and further enhance its functionality. These products and tools are delivered by default when you install Spoolgen.
I-Configure
Simplifies the customization of piping isometrics produced by Isogen. I-Configure provides access to ISOGEN Configuration. Using ISOGEN Configuration, you can configure virtually everything about the piping isometric drawing, from the style of dimensioning and format of weld and part numbers to the location and layout of the material take-off, enabling you to produce isometric drawings to your own specifications.
Key Features
-
Delivers quick access to a user-interface for configuration Isogen controls.
-
Provides Explorer-type windows to navigate available projects and styles.
-
Uses XML files for storage of project and drawing style information.
Smart Isometrics
Enables you to sketch piping systems and generate isometric drawings with full bills of materials (BOMs) quickly and easily. Formerly known as I-Sketch, Smart Isometrics is a powerful yet simple to use Microsoft Windows-based pipe sketching application. Smart Isometrics integrates with all the leading 3D plant design systems and contains all the key features of I-Sketch while adding the functionality listed below.
Key Features
-
Enables sketching of several pipelines within one session.
-
Creates an instant 3D scaled view of pipelines.
-
Provides simultaneous 3D view of multiple pipelines. This allows for the design of several pipelines in a confined location and visual clash checks with new or existing pipelines.
-
Allows the design of complete piping systems.
-
Produces Isogen industry-standard piping system isometric drawings.
I-Tools
Merges individual pipeline Isogen Data Files or Piping Component Files from any Isogen-enabled plant design system into a single system. This data can then serve as input to Smart Isometrics to create pipeline system isometric drawings, which can be used for the commissioning, construction, inspection, and testing of installed piping systems.
Key Features
-
Enables merging of multiple single pipeline files into a system file.
-
Confirms system content by visually displaying pipelines.
-
Examines pipeline connectivity and highlights 3D modeling issues.
-
Pinpoints groupings of pipelines into connected systems via reporting tools.
-
Simplifies system data through its pipe-stripping tool.
I-View CAD
Converts the Isogen Data File (IDF) or Piping Component File (PCF) output from any Isogen-enabled plant design system to create a scaled 3D model in AutoCAD or MicroStation format, complete with tag data or component information.
Key Features
-
Simple, easy-to-use interface.
-
Requires no extensive knowledge of MicroStation or AutoCAD.
-
Creates supporting data files that are compatible with Intergraph Smart Review and NavisWorks' JetStream products.
-
Provides multiple ways to configure model output for added flexibility.
Material Editor
Provides a single environment for creating, editing, and managing reference data, such as the material data files, catalogs, and piping specifications used in Smart Isometrics. Material Editor is also used to customize the other material, bolts, coupling, supports and welds that you can add to a pipeline in Spoolgen prior to producing spool sheets and isometric drawings for fabrication and construction.
Key Features
-
Supports the import of SmartPlant Reference Data materials data.
-
Enables rapid creation of piping catalogs and specifications from paper-based documents.
-
Delivers comprehensive design rules, such as branch table, default choice, bolting tables, and so on.
Piping Data Processor
Enables you to correct bad data and remove objects, attributes, or information not required by Isogen for drawing generation. You can use the utility to add attributes or change, edit, and delete records in piping data files prior to importing them into the software.
Symbol Editor
Provides a user-friendly interface in which you can easily create new or modify existing .xml-based or ASCII symbols files for use in Isogen drawings and Smart Isometric sketches. The software allows you to graphically define and modify a component and save it to a XML-based file or export the redefined symbol to an Isogen ASCII file so that it can be used in your generated isometric drawings.
