Intergraph SmartPlant Spoolgen an industrial-grade software application used to create piping isometric drawings for fabrication and erection
At its core, SmartPlant SpoolGen addresses a fundamental logistical reality: piping systems are not built as single, continuous entities. Instead, they are constructed in smaller, transportable sections known as spools. These spools are often prefabricated off-site in controlled environments before being shipped to the construction site for final assembly. The primary function of SpoolGen is to facilitate the breakdown of engineering design data—specifically from Isogen or 3D CAD systems—into these manageable fabrication units.
Improved Communication: Standardizes output formats across different subcontractors, ensuring that everyone works from the same set of high-quality drawings.
Built on the industry-standard Isogen technology for automated isometric generation, Spoolgen is designed specifically for piping fabricators. It allows users to take design isometrics from Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) firms and add critical fabrication and construction details without needing to manually redraw or re-enter material data.
