Spoolgen can reduce the time required to produce input data for material and weld management activities by up to . 2. Enhanced Accuracy and Reduced Rework

The data exported from Spoolgen can be fed directly into Fabrication Information Management (FIM) systems or ERP software. This creates a seamless digital thread from the engineering office to the welding station. How it Fits into the Workflow

In a typical project lifecycle, the engineering team creates a massive 3D plant model using platforms like Smart 3D, PDMS, or PDS. When they issue piping isometric drawings to a fabrication shop, these drawings represent entire pipelines running from "Equipment A" to "Equipment B."

: Because the drawings are generated straight from the engineering data, there is no risk of transcription errors, wrong dimensions, or missed components. intergraph smartplant spoolgen

The software generates detailed and accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs), cutting lists, weld summary reports, and spool information lists. These reports can be output to a variety of formats and integrated with downstream IT systems like ERP (e.g., SAP), Material Management, and Quality Assurance systems.

The software uses an intelligent, rule-based engine to automate the spool breaking process. Instead of relying on manual guesswork, users can define logical rules for where a pipe should be split for fabrication, ensuring that spools are sized correctly for transportation, shop equipment, and ease of installation.

The platform features an interactive graphical interface. Users can import multiple pipeline files simultaneously to build a . This interface lets users check pipeline connectivity, perform structural validation, and find modeling issues before fabrication. Interactive Spool Definition Spoolgen can reduce the time required to produce

Engineering data flows seamlessly downstream into Spoolgen.

By defining weld types (shop vs. field), users dictate where a pipe is cut. Spoolgen automatically calculates the individual spool dimensions, applies standard weld-gap deductions, and numbers each spool systematically. 2. Weld Management and Tracking

The core value proposition of SpoolGen is speed. Manually breaking down an ISO into spool pieces in a CAD environment is time-consuming and prone to error. SpoolGen automates this process. It identifies weld locations, evaluates material availability, and suggests break points based on predefined rules. It can automatically split a line into spools based on: This creates a seamless digital thread from the

SmartPlant Spoolgen does not operate in a vacuum; it is a core component of Hexagon’s broader "Design-to-Fabrication" workflow.

This is where (now a key product within the Hexagon PPM portfolio) proves essential. SmartPlant Spoolgen is a proven, industrial-strength application specifically designed to bridge this gap. It enables the rapid creation of detailed piping isometric drawings for fabrication and erection directly from the design data produced during a project's detail engineering phase.
