5 Features Enhance productivity the PROCAD way. The AutoFLOW, AutoORTHO and AutoISO applications include all the support modules to increase your productivity. These modules will facilitate you to create standards for each project, generate specs for use in multiple projects and provide you with robust material reporting capabilities. Standards Manager Bill of Material Settings Manager Establish different standards for each customer and/or project to ensure that the drawings created for each instance are consistent from start to finish. For example, you can easily specify English or Metric units, layering and color schemes, border drawings, piping specs, scaling factors and dimensioning variables. Spec Generator Create your own pipe specs with an extensive source database that includes an impressive array of fittings in a variety of ratings and materials. What s more, you can organize and print specs, edit existing specs and even add new material to the source database. Manage each project s material with a level of efficiency that only PROCAD can provide. The BOM generation tools enable you to create reports for a single drawing, a group of drawings or an entire project while selecting which components are to be included or excluded. You can also choose whether your final output is formatted for the Internet, a spreadsheet or a database interface so your reports are always made available in the way most relevant for your project or customer. 5

6 AutoFLOW P&ID Drafting Software Intelligent software creates intelligent designs. Packed with timesaving features, AutoFLOW takes your work to a higher level of efficiency and accuracy. Extensive functionality and complete ANSI/ISA symbology means you can easily create Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) and Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs). With functions for drawing vessels, exchangers and other equipment as well as an automated layering system that lets you customize layers to conform to company standards, AutoFLOW enables you to create diagrams as accurate as you, and your clients, demand them to be. With AutoFLOW you will quickly and easily create flow sheets, valve bills of material, equipment lists, instrument lists and line number lists, often with just one click of the mouse. Additional features such as the ability to automatically trim lines before placing valves, instruments and other symbols means you ll be able to complete your work more quickly which ultimately saves time and money for you and your clients.

7 AutoORTHO Piping, Structural & Civil Drafting Software Robust features that work as hard as you do. Create more intelligent drawings with PROCAD s comprehensive application for piping, structural and civil drafting. AutoORTHO comes standard with everything you need to get to work almost as soon as you install the software including a complete selection of standard pipe fittings, a function to calculate pipe spacing on pipe racks and a full range of valve types. Though a fully automated program, AutoORTHO puts you in control with a full menu of system overrides that give you the ability to override current spec settings and add special components or even change the parameters for components. Automated features at every turn speak to PROCAD s ability to create intuitive software that seems to know as much about drafting as you do. For instance, the Auto-Route function simplifies the drafting process by placing piping components sequentially so you can work faster and still create the detailed, accurate drawings you need. Purchase as the Productivity Pack* and save! * includes AutoFLOW, AutoORTHO & AutoISO 7

8 AutoISO Piping Isometric Drafting Software Intelligent software creates intelligent designs. With dozens of timesaving features, AutoISO provides the automation and customization tools necessary for a job well done for every job you do. The third component of PROCAD s enables you to create isometrics with components containing both dimensional and material data. AutoISO s automated functions allow you to change the isometric plane effortlessly when the program detects a change in the piping direction, verify spec compliance and branch fitting types automatically, and even calculate cut lengths of pipe when an overall dimension is entered. The Auto-Route function, one of AutoISO s most popular features, simplifies the drawing of isometrics considerably. After specifying a start point and direction, all you have to do is simply select one fitting after another. The application places the fittings sequentially by constantly moving the insertion point forward, saving you countless minutes in design time.

9 Material Reporting Tools Material reports generated in your preferred format Our Material Reporting Tools give you full control over Material reports. With s comprehensive material reporting tools, users can easily control and manage their projects' material and generate material reports on each project based on whatever parameters they set. For example, you can create a report for a specified line number, or a group of line numbers in a selected spec, or select to report all the valves in a project. When it comes to saving your report, you can save it into a named template format, utilizing and even editing as many reporting templates as needed. The material reporting capabilities of software are both powerful and flexible. These features assist the user on how to setup the material reporting system and how to share the generated material information with their procurement department. Accurate and timely material reporting can make a difference in project's profitability by reducing waste and ensuring correct material counts are ordered. Choose from a variety of output formats to generate reports that best suit your material management system: HTML format for publishing on the Web CSV format for spreadsheets like Excel Text files that can be imported into customer's material management software Inserted into the AutoCAD drawing 9
