Navisworks has the ability to open various file types.
This is where the dependable sidekick comes to the rescue. How do we then share this information to external parties like clients, fabricators or constructors who don’t have the Plant 3D application? In plant design, data will pass through many hands and in various stages of the project. However, this data can only be viewed within the Plant 3D application. This data is crucial for the plant’s overall design. Each piping component placed in Plant 3D has useful data embedded in it. Misinformation, or the lack of, can cause delays and costly errors in a project’s life cycle.ĪutoCAD Plant 3D is a powerful process-piping design tool. does DWFx 3D to DWG conversion, quite a bit cheaper than iConstruct and it's a horrible old style looking software, it works though.In a data driven world, information can be the currency that can make or break your project.
Autodesk claim 'seamless integration between their applications' not in my experience.įunnily enough, Importing the exported FBX from Navisworks into the 3rd party Rhino3D successfully imports all the colours and a DWG can be saved. Unfortunately, all it does is import all objects on to one layer and fails to bring in the colours which creates an enormous amount of back work. The Australian company iConstruct has a plug-in to Navisworks that has a module that allows exporting directly to DWG, it even allows the user to section plane and slice the model prior to export.ĪutoCAD imports FBX but it's broken in a way that it's supposed to import all the colours of objects and place them on their own layer. There is a solution however, but it's expensive though it does work very very well when I tested it last year. RedWa圓D version 4.1 supports FBX but Bricsys says they have no plans to move to this new version. Navisworks can export FBX (Filmbox) and DWFx 3D, neither of these formats can be imported into BricsCAD.
