Designing plants or factories of any size for high performance

Worldwide, the M4 PLANT software that was developed in Germany is appreciated for its performance. The professional factory layout and plant design software enables size-independent planning and also offers a high level of functionality. This makes the design of any factory or plant easier and projects are more fun.

Anyone designing large factories and plants depend on software that can handle even very large and extensive models with high performance. But many 3D designing tools are unable to display very large models with numerous details, let alone design them. Here is the advantage of M4 PLANT, because the architecture of the software, is specifically created to design large plants, and finally make size-independent designing in project work a reality.

With the recently released version 7.0 of M4 PLANT, the software supports the factory designer more than ever in his daily layout tasks. The complete integration between the 2D and 3D world allows the creation of layouts in a familiar and intuitive way. At the same time, the software offers versatile and adaptable catalogues from which to draw. For example, conveyors or racking systems can be selected and designed very quickly. Even your own machines can be imported directly using the 3D interfaces or simply modelled in the software itself.

M4 PLANT offers a comprehensive range of functions for plant design. With modules for process engineering (P&ID), 3D pipeline construction, the creation of pipeline isometrics or steel construction, the software supports all areas relevant to plant design. Here too, the software offers an enormous range of catalogue components. And with version 7.0 of M4 PLANT, these have been expanded even further, especially in the area of pipeline construction. And here, too, customers can generate their own individually tailored catalogues.

The software can be downloaded free of charge from CAD Schroer’s website and tested for 30 days. The manufacturer offers extensive video tutorials, as well as 1-to-1 testing support for businesses. So if you want to see the performance of the software for yourself, simply download the software and try it with your own design data. And if you are stuck at any point, simply contact CAD Schroer: "With M4 PLANT, we have succeeded in developing extremely high-performance software. We look forward to making the new version available to today’s modern designer
