Design digitization of production plant using feature-based modeling

Hitech CADD Services’ project team visited the plant and physically recorded the dimensions to document the design data. Since the plant operations were running regularly, the team worked during the machine down time or at night.

• Two onsite engineers manually measured the equipment, assemblies and sub-assemblies and documented them
• As the measurements were recorded the team onsite developed hand sketches and sent pictures to the team in India to create the models
• Using parametric CAD tools, we developed 3D models and drawings, 2D manufacturing drawings for all the equipment and plant layout
• GA drawings, exploded views, structure models were also created
• Several RFIs were raised to understand internal structures of equipment such as shredder, exhaust, etc.
• QC was done by a senior engineer on the team and final drawings were shared with the client
