ECE Worx Plugin: ANNOWorx automates Annotations for CADWorx™

ANNOWorx efficiently inserts smart tags and labels on detail drawings.
All annotations are linked so if anything changes within CADWorx® or Plant 3D® models they will update automatically.

ANNOWorx helps maintain CAD standards because it uses TEXT and MLeader styles which can be set differently for each annotation category.

OverviewPiping & Electrical RoutesEquipmentPiping Components

ANNOWorx is used to insert text and leaders on CADWorx/Plant 3D piping, steel and equipment components found within detail drawings.

TAG Annotations

Almost every piping or electrical route is uniquely identified by stringing variables together like size, spec, service, number, etc. Within CADWorx this identification is the TAG value.

ANNOWorx can insert TAG values or just a portions of them.
This enables users to be selective on the identification content.
For example, consider a TAG value like
12″-P-CL150-236-2″PP.
The ANNOTag could be formatted to insert as
12″-236.

Elevation Annotations

They are commonly put on mechanical and electrical plans and section drawings, so ANNOWorx helps with this too.

Users have the ability to insert values associated with the bottom, center or top of routes.
For example, if piping is routed on top of steel, users may want to annotate the pipe elevation as bottom of pipe, or BOP.

Since there is no way to annotate CADWorx Equipment, users will adopt this capability.

Select any component of a vessel, exchanger, pump, etc. and ANNOWorx inserts the ‘Equipment Name’.

ANNOWorx will label Equipment nozzles too. Every nozzle can be given a name and this is what will be inserted. It is possible to annotate elevations, northings and eastings too.

CADWorx has very limited capabilities when it comes to annotating piping components. In may situations user want to annotate control valves, instruments, pipe supports, etc. with more than just their TAG, SHORT, or LONG DESCRIPTION.

ANNOWorx enables users to assemble tags, or labels, from just about every component attribute.

Formatting them with line breaks and separators provides a large array of options.
