Solutions
Tank & Pressure Vessel Automation
From engineering input to a complete 3D model, drawings and parts list, driven by a single set of parameters.
Overview
What it does
Our flagship solution automates the repetitive parts of tank and pressure vessel design. Engineers enter the design inputs, and the system builds the model, assembly, nozzles, drawings and parts list in a consistent, repeatable way.
Capabilities
- Vertical and horizontal vessel configurations
- Parametric shells, heads, supports and attachments
- Automated nozzle placement and sizing
- Assembly generation with constraints
- Drawing and BOM generation from the model
- Built on Autodesk Inventor with iLogic and .NET
Workflow
From input to complete design
01
Engineering Input
Design conditions, dimensions and materials are entered once.
02
Parameter Processing
Inputs are checked and converted into driving parameters.
03
3D Model Generation
Shell, heads and structural parts are modeled from parameters.
04
Assembly Automation
Components are placed and constrained into the vessel assembly.
05
Nozzle Automation
Nozzles are positioned, sized and cut into the shell and heads.
06
Engineering Drawings
Drawing views and annotations are produced from the model.
07
BOM / Parts List
A parts list is generated to match the design.
Benefits
Why it matters
One source of input
Design data is entered once and drives the model, drawings and parts list.
Consistent output
Standard rules mean similar vessels are modeled and documented the same way.
Engineer-controlled
Automation handles repetition while engineers keep control of design decisions.
