SP3D2NW - Hexagon Smart3D import interface for Autodesk Navisworks (VUE)
As a user of SmartPlant 3D you probably are aware of the diffi culty in communicating with project members, customers and suppliers that don’t have SmartPlant 3D. One of the better solutions on the
market to achieve this is Navisworks, which is well known as a design review tool and is used in almost every project worldwide. Unitec recognizes the challenge to get SmartPlant 3D into Navisworks®, this
includes all required properties from the SmartPlant 3D model. With Unitec’s SmartPlant 3D interface for Navisworks®, you will be able to import your SmartPlant 3D models into Navisworks.
Main functionalities
- The 3d geometry can be imported using the ACIS/SAT format or DGN fi les.
- It is possible to merge several input fi les into a Navisworks model (.nwc or .nwd) with a common,
- overarching hierarchy.
- Attribute data can be fi ltered using an attribute fi lter fi le to concentrate on the important properties in the
- Navisworks model.
- Using a mapping fi le delivered with the software, property values can be individually mapped
- (which is of particular importance for enumerations values).
- The SmartPlant 3D interface supports batch runs, that can be scheduled.
- The completeness of the exported SmartPlant 3D geometry is guaranteed, since components
- that could not be assigned in the model structure are collected in a separate model area.
- Similarly, component without any graphical representation will be accounted for in the model structure
- and include with all their properties.
