COADE Releases New PV Fabricator for Automated Deliverables for Pressure Vessel and Heat Exchanger Design

COADE announced the release of COADE PV Fabricator, a new software product for the automated production of design and fabrication deliverables for pressure vessels and heat exchangers, including 2D layout and detail drawings, bills of material tables, nozzle schedules, weld details, title block, nameplate, notes and any other annotation that may be needed for deliverables.

The package leverages the existing bi-directional links between COADE PV Elite, for pressure vessel and heat exchanger design and analysis, and COADE CADWorx Equipment, for parametric equipment modeling. PV Fabricator comes with parametric modeling for fast and accurate development of fully editable 3D models of pressure vessels and heat exchangers. From these models, designers can develop complete fabrication deliverables for their pressure vessels and heat exchangers by using the built-in tools that automate the detail production process.

When PV Fabricator is linked to PV Elite, the benefits multiply for engineering and design integration. This combination can reduce the time it takes to produce fabrication deliverables by up to 80%. This bi-directional link eliminates the redundant re-work and the resulting mistakes that can occur when compared to conventional methods of creating vessel fabrication deliverables.
