Autodesk AutoCAD Plant 3D 2021

With the introduction of AutoCAD Plant 3D 2021 Autodesk has met the needs of the process plant industry sector, and delivered an affordable but powerful 3D process plant design and plant layout application to a market place once dominated with expensive and difficult solutions to both learn and maintain.

Built on the familiar world class AutoCAD CAD software platform, AutoCAD® Plant 3D delivers unprecedented ease of use with a shorter than average learning curve for existing 2D AutoCAD users, and is available as part of AutoCAD with specialised toolsets or with the Autodesk AEC Collection.

With an industry specialised interface optimised for process plant design in a 3D environment, AutoCAD Plant 3D boasts a plethora of productivity and specification driven tools to address typical plant and process design challenges including standardisation and customisation of project specific parts lists and catalogues, along with the ability to either manually or semi-automatically model specification driven pipelines and associated components to name a few of Plant 3D's power tools.

Managing project data, data collaboration and construction documentation is also addressed with a robust set of querying, exporting and reporting tools including the export of Piping Component Files (PCF), isometrics and bill of materials.
