Automated piping isometrics

Stop redrawing
your isometrics.

Cadmium takes your 3D piping model to a finished, annotated isometric on your template, in seconds.

A finished Cadmium isometric sheet: green pipe run, red dimension chains, magenta elevation callouts, numbered component balloons and a bill of materials table in the corner of an A2 sheet.

The problem

Isometric generation is costing you.

Your project requires hundreds of isometrics, and you spend hours of draftsman time on each one — cleaning up the cluttered, bloated mess that comes out of AutoCAD.

  • Components colliding with each other.
  • Annotations overlapping each other.
  • Criss-crossing labels.
  • Unwanted information everywhere.
  • Completely illegible.
Straight out of AutoCADbefore cleanup
An isometric generated by AutoCAD: leader lines crossing in every direction, OPERATOR UP tags repeated a dozen times, dimensions and part codes overlapping each other and the pipe.

How it works

Export, upload, download.

Nothing changes about how you model.

Source

Your 3D model

The Plant 3D piping model exactly as you already have it.

Export

One command

Our AutoCAD plugin, CADMIUMEXPORT, writes an export folder next to your drawing containing export.dxf and export.iges.

Upload

Drop the pair

Cadmium reads the exported files, projects the run to 2D and places every annotation.

Output

The sheet

An annotated isometric DXF on an A2 sheet or your own title block — native CAD entities, fully editable.

The 3D model

    
The model and the sheet,
anywhere, any time.

    

      Every drawing keeps its 3D model beside the generated isometric. View it
