Energy, Plant and Process
Customer Spotlight: Eastern Power Limited. "SolidWorks was the only solution with integrated design, piping, structural, simulation and documentation capabilities." - Orlando Linero, Plant Designer |
In plant, process and energy projects, EPC firms along with subcontractors and equipment manufacturers can benefit from using SolidWorks' design, simulation and documentation solutions to deliver innovative, cost effective designs to meet their customer’s needs. SolidWorks customers are involved in a wide range of projects including oil & gas, alternative energy (nuclear, wind, hydropower) and water & wastewater treatment systems.
SolidWorks enables you to use a common data model to create complete, accurate designs that can be leveraged across planning, equipment design, layout, fabrication and construction. Design alternatives can be explored easily using 3D parametric design and simulation capabilities to achieve optimal designs and meet customer and design objectives. Create photorealistic renderings and animations for presentations, proposals, design reviews or virtual and material studies.
SolidWorks products help you create and manage 3D models and fully-detailed general arrangement and fabrication drawings for mechanical equipment and systems, HVAC, 3D process layouts and electrical, conduit and piping systems.
