Moers, Germany and Cambridge, UK, 2 July 2008: At a very successful Hannover Messe in April 2008, followed by the PTC/USER World event in the United States in June, CAD Schroer Group (CSG), the global engineering solutions provider, introduced its latest innovative development, MPDS4 FACTORY LAYOUT. The product was developed specifically to address the needs of turnkey installation providers and those maintaining their own large process plants. In the UK, the product will be introduced at the PPMA Show in Birmingham from September 30th to October 2nd, 2008.
MPDS4 FACTORY LAYOUT allows users to quickly produce winning proposals or plant layouts based on existing CAD data, with impressive 3D visualisations and walk-throughs. Changes can be made in 2D or 3D on the fly, and all data from the pre-sales or inception phase can be reused during the main project phase.
“We’re delighted by the interest the product has generated,” says Managing Director Thomas Schubert, who attended the last two events. “Organisations that maintain their own manufacturing, processing or packaging plants, or sell turnkey process lines or complete factories with diverse machinery, are beginning to look at competitiveness at the pre-sales stage. They want to use software that slots in with existing systems and uses existing designs. They need to deliver impressive, visual bids quickly, without wasting time and money producing movies or walk-throughs with tools that don’t deliver CAD content for downstream project engineering processes.”
MPDS4 FACTORY LAYOUT provides just the right solution. “We-ve been demonstrating how we can use third party 2D building plans or site maps to form the basis of an installation design,” explains CSG-s Product Line Manager, Mark Simpson. “Then we can easily incorporate existing model and catalogue data to quickly create large industrial layouts and 3D visualisations, walkthrough movies, 3D images, drawings and bills of materials to support the entire tender process. MPDS4 FACTORY LAYOUT makes it easier to win more business and – because the data is reusable – progress projects more quickly once the business is won.”
CAD Schroer’s team is looking forward to discussing user needs in detail at stand G14 at the PPMA Show – the
complete production line event – in the United Kingdom next.
