AVEVA Releases Surface Manager v12.1 for Marine Design
 CAMBRIDGE,
UK, Jan 5, 2012 - AVEVA (LSE:AVV), a leader in engineering design and information management
solutions for theplant, power and marine industries, has announced the release
of AVEVA Surface Manager 12.1, another new product in its AVEVA Marine
portfolio. AVEVA Surface Manager allows the transfer of surfaces to and from
external systems, by the use of neutral standards offering greater flexibility
and increased design quality.Features of AVEVA Surface Manager
include the import of surfaces from various formats for use in AVEVA Marine
and graphically displaying the shape of the geometry. It supports the most
commonly used formats: IGES, SAT, DML and STEP AP 203 for the import and
export of surfaces. In addition, AVEVA Surface Manager also enables the
extraction of surfaces from existing AVEVA Marine projects for
conversion into external formats for use in third-party software.
The new product also offers tools for quality assessment of the managed
surface and, if needed, can repair defects detected in surfaces transferred
from third-party applications in order to be successfully used in the AVEVA
Marine applications.
For the sub-division of work packages, AVEVA Surface Manager can also
easily split surfaces so shipyards can protect the investment and
confidentiality of their hullforms by only distributing to sub-contractors
the part of the hullform they need to do their work.
“AVEVA Surface Manager gives AVEVA Marine users the freedom to use the
surface system of their choice and efficiently transfers the surfaces
into AVEVA Marine”, said Stéphane Neuvéglise, Head of Business
Management – Marine Systems, AVEVA. “It also increases design quality as
Surface Manager allows users to check the imported surface quality and to
repair surface defects before they are allowed to propagate in the design.
Perhaps most importantly, it also helps shipyards to protect their
Intellectual Property, by distributing onlynecessary components of the
hullform to subcontractors”.

information model. There are three categories of product within the IE&D
approach; AVEVA Engineer products create hullform, compartmentation,
schematics, diagrams, datasheets, engineering lists and indexes. The AVEVA
Design products create 3D models for detailed design and produce all
associated production information. AVEVA’s Manage products enable global
work share, clash management and design review.
