Autodesk updated the Russified product line

The Autodesk company announced an exit of the new software package AutoCAD Plant 3D — the powerful tool for design of industrial enterprises and creation of their digital prototypes in such segments as chemical industry, power, transportation and oil refining and gas.

AutoCAD Plant 3D is founded on the latest version of the AutoCAD platform and provides the most modern means of three-dimensional design. AutoCAD P&ID is integrated into the program that allows to implement a possibility of approval of technology schemes of three-dimensional model and also to receive two-dimensional and isometric drawings and other documents in extremely short terms. The convenient system of access and management allows to increase performance and to increase design accuracy.

When using AutoCAD Plant3D:

• Creation of projects, introduction of changes in them, release of drawings in comparison with other CAD and even with AutoCAD becomes simpler.
• Coordination of the project as process of coordination of actions of colleagues of adjacent specialties is automated based on a 3D model increases.
• The quality of design due to automatic identification of collisions, i.e. intersections of elements of model among themselves increases. Therefore the project organization can guarantee to the customer total absence of similar errors in the project.

The Russian version of a product is adapted for the Russian regulations and standards of process design. In the territory of Russia AutoCAD Plant3D will be available as separately, and as a part of software packages:

Autodesk Plant Design Suite Advanced which includes the following components:

• AutoCAD 2011
• AutoCAD P&ID 2011
• AutoCAD Plant 3D 2011
• Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2011

Autodesk Plant Design Suite Premium which includes the following components:

• AutoCAD 2011
• AutoCAD P&ID 2011
• AutoCAD Plant 3D 2011
