SupportModeler™

Complementary Software

PDS , Intergraph's comprehensive, intelligent computer-aided design/engineering (CAD/CAE) application for plant design, construction, and operations.

Accelerate large projects with SupportManager™
SupportManager is a batch processing utility and companion product to SupportModeler that speeds administration and production of piping deliverables for large engineering projects. This helps you automate fabrication drawing production, report creation, and project administration. SupportManager is most useful for larger projects in streamlining activities and reducing tedious tasks.

Boost productivity with Custom Libraries
Build your company's standards into very flexible libraries of pipe support assemblies. Assembly libraries define the detailed graphics for 3D modeling, the rules for sizing and placement, and everything needed to create automatic fabrication drawings for each support in a project. You can reduce errors, reduce checking, and customize supports and assemblies.

Vendor Library Catalogs in SupportModeler

SupportModeler includes most major out-of-the-box vendor libraries for increased productivity throughout your project. These extensive libraries contain fully parametric, industry-standard components that you can customize to fit your workflow. Standard assembly libraries allow you to place pre-configured standard supports quickly and easily.

Customize the libraries to suit your company standards, or let us customize them for you. Protect your legacy data and ensure best practices by including design guidelines and "rules of thumb" to create an intelligent library that produces designs with fewer errors.
