CAD Schroer, CEL Launch Factory Modeling Service at PPMA
 MOERS,
Germany, Nov 18, 2009 - At a very successful Process and
Packaging Machinery Association (PPMA) Show this October, CAD Schroer, the global engineering solutions
provider, introduced process plant owners in such industries as Food
Manufacturing and Pharmaceuticals to a new concept for preventing expensive
problems when adapting or moving their factories. The company demonstrated its
latest MPDS4 FACTORY LAYOUT software and, together with well-known project
engineering consultants CEL International (a longstanding MPDS4 customer),
introduced a factory modeling service, which delivers a 3D model, complete with
walk-through software and all CAD data, to clients looking to address process
plant layout issues."We were delighted at the level of interest from factory
Owner/Operators as well as machinery providers needing to relocate,
consolidate, layout or visualize their installations. We are already taking
things further with a number of prospects who are keen to get going," says
Bill Wilkins, Technical Sales Manager at CAD Schroer UK.
Delivery of 3D Factory Model and Walk-through
Review Tool
"Many visitors looking to source new processing or packaging machinery
also have factory layout issues they need to address as they consolidate,
update or move manufacturing sites," says Anke Adams, Marketing Manager at
CAD Schroer UK. "Typically they are working with 2D drawings to manage their
layouts, but need a spatial element with clash detection as more changes are
made more often, and more machinery needs to fit into tighter spaces.
Problems not detected at the design stage get extremely expensive once a
capital project is underway. We can help customers plan and cost necessary
changes by quickly creating a 3D factory model from existing plans, 2D
layouts and equipment models. With our MPDS4 REVIEW tool, all stakeholders
involved in a factory adaptation or move can conduct virtual 3D walk-throughs
to ensure a design meets all specifications prior to build or adaptation
order."
A Quick Way to Get Started
The service offered in conjunction with CEL International can include
measuring up existing sites, modeling existing equipment and adding the
supporting services (piping, ductwork, electrical etc) to come up with an
accurate digital model along with comprehensive CAD drawings, piping
isometrics and parts lists for project engineers.
Customers taking advantage of this service as a quick way to achieve
their objectives then have the option of using the MPDS4 FACTORY LAYOUT
software to make future changes themselves. CAD Schroer's plant design
solution works within existing CAD environments, incorporating existing CAD
data (in- house and from machinery suppliers) to offer a fast 2D to 3D
layout tool which handles a vast amount of data with ease. Any service
supplied by CAD Schroer or CEL International delivers all the accompanying
CAD files, making it easy for customers to kick off new projects or make
modifications at a later date.
