Creating drawings of 2D installations is related to drawing lines, adding objects and descriptions. CADprofi program enables automatic drawing of line strings and fittings of any kind in 2D view. It also allows user to quickly connect lines and to edit them. It is also possible to insert armature views in previously drawn lines with an ability to automatically insert reduction. All objects are inserted on appropriate layers that define their line kinds or system (supply, return, air etc.).
An example of 2D view
CADprofi program possesses different objects:
•Radiators – it is possible to use radiators on 2D projections and strand diagrams.
•Plumbing objects– objects used in designing water and sewage installations.
•Parametrical objects– these objects represent actual views of devices such as boilers, tanks, block pumps etc. For parametrical objects it is possible to specify their technical data and all dimensions.
•Parametrical armature just like with the objects, parametrical armature represents actual devices view (armature, lines equipment, flanges, in-line 2D lines). The main feature of these objects is the ability to insert them in 2D lines.
•Objects from manuafcturer’s libraries – they are available in the Products library command. Products libraries are created together with manufacturers and therefore contain a very comprehensive source of objects (blocks) that are used in designing. Products libraries are constantly being updated and are made available by manufacturers on the internet. After installing CADprofi program it is possible to install additional libraries at a later time that will be added to the program.
•Objects defined by users – every user can add to the program any objects used in designing.
