Link to P&ID Drawings & Data Linking

Using Intergraph CADWorx P&ID Professional provides companies with “intelligent” CAD drawings – drawings tied to a database that enables total control of component information. PIDMO takes this data linking to the next level by enabling people to view, modify and report on CADworx CAD data to and from Microsoft Excel in order to efficiently and effectively accomplish their respective responsibilities. PIDMO provides the perfect mechanism for automatically updating Intergraph P&ID CAD Drawings.

PIDMO provides an export function that can be formatted for standardized reporting. These reporting worksheets can be populated with data and then imported back into the database to automatically update CAD Drawings.

Once the Tag is on a piece of equipment, whether an instrument, valve or other, PIDMO can export the Tag list to Excel where it can be populated with all the required information and imported back into the CAD Drawings automatically. NO more does the Designer have to dig through the dialogs and search for information before updating the CAD Drawings. A simple export to Excel and a simple import back in for immediate updates to the CAD Drawings. Changes are made in the Excel Environment where everyone is comfortable.
