Creating better engineering solutions starts with the right mindset



"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." (Albert Einstein). This seems true - finding new, improved ways of thinking and working means developing a new mindset. Continuing to improve what you are doing. Not settling for doing things a certain way because that’s how it has always been done. Discovering ways to work better and more efficiently.

At Intergraph CADWorx & Analysis, we are great believers in continuous improvement. We continue to develop our solutions, look for better ways for engineers to commit their daily tasks, and find new approaches to existing challenges in the industry. It’s more of a mindset and attitude than anything else. The latest examples of these developments include the announcements of the new 2016 versions of Visual Vessel Design and TANK! You can download / watch webinars to learn more about the latest improvements in the software.

We also have some new examples of how we’ve worked together with our customers to improve work processes and enhance efficiency. You can read more about how Italian engineering company STI Engineering designed a waste-to-energy plant, and lowered engineering software cost up to 60%. Similarly, you can learn how WorleyParsons Resources & Energy, Abu Dhabi improved efficiency while executing FEED engineering  and developing upstream facilities and infrastructure to support the production of 1.2 million barrels of oil per day.

In addition, I would like to remind you of the upcoming HxGN LOCAL CAU Houston 2016. You can join on September 19-20 at Houston to become more productive by discovering new ways of working with the CADWorx & Analysis solutions.

Novi CADWorx 2016

Why deploy CADWorx 2016?

One very compelling reason is the new material assignment table feature.
It can reduce the number of items in piping specifications by 75%.
Engineers, CAD Admins and users of CADWorx PLANT are all going to benefit from this feature.

All of us have had to have multiple entries for pipe and fittings because over the size range material spec and grade change.  Prior to CADWorx 2016 we had to have a separate items for each material.  For example, it was not uncommon to have up to 5 materials from 1/2" to 36" pipe in a pressure class piping spec; A106, X42, X60, X65, etc.  Those days are over!

Now the material assignment table enables us to have only one line in our spec.
Please join us this week an witness how powerful this new feature is and how it can simplify your next pipe spec building effort.

Please join us this Wednesday June 8 from 11:45 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. CST.

Na nedavno održanom 13. seminaru o tlačnoj opremi predstavili smo se sa najmodernijim tehnologijama u području snimanja postoječeg stanja cjevovoda.
Tvrtka Numikon kao zastupnik tvrtke Intergraph u svojem radu koristi ujedno i sve blagodati softvera koje nudi. Uključivši se u proces 'legalizacije' cjevovoda prije par godina, tvrtka je tražila način kako ubrzati cjelokupnu izradu potrebne dokumentacije. Uz pomoć Intergraphovih softvera, njihove zajedničke intergracije i totalnih stanica Leica u tome se i uspijelo. Ne samo što je time skraćeno vrijeme snimanja trodimenzionalnih modela na terenu i ubrzano vrijeme izrade dokumentacije, nego je time povećana i točnost i smanjene su neželjene greške koje se mogu javiti u postupku. Također je smanjen rizik izlaganja djelatnika povredama tijekom samog snimanja, tj. mjerenja (nepotrebno penjanje, približavanje opasnim mjestima i sl). Učinkovitost je povećana čak šest puta, što je prepoznala i tvrtka Intergraph pa je nedavno objavila 'Case Study' o takvoj primjeni i pristupu takvom načinu rada.
U skladu s time, valja na primjeru prikazati kako svako, koristeći Integraphova rješenja, može biti brži, točniji i konkurentniji.
