Original Press Release:
Coade to Introduce Cadworx 2007 at PELC in Netherlands on 7 June
Easy-to-use 2D and 3D design have made CADWorx one of the industry's fastest growing plant design suites
HOUSTON, May 31, 2006 - COADE, Inc. announced today that the company will introduce its CADWorx 2007 process plant design suite at PELC 2006, to be held 7 June in The Hague, Netherlands, a conference of which the company is also a sponsor. At the event, J.R. Dubbeldam, CEO of The Badger Company based in The Netherlands, will be presenting a workshop entitled Engineering Tools for Growth. This session will focus on The Badger Company's experience and the benefits of using the CADWorx plant design suite and its bidirectional links with engineering tools such as COADE's CAESAR II, the world's standard for pipe stress analysis.
COADE will also showcase the latest editions of COADE CAESAR II, and COADE PV Elite, the company's popular pressure vessel design and analysis software, assisted by Fern Computer Consultancy, a leading COADE dealer in Europe.
In discussing the upcoming PELC event, Thomas J. Van Laan, PE, the president of COADE, highlighted the rapid growth of CADWorx worldwide and what that means for those attending the show. "When we developed CADWorx over 10 years ago, our intent was to get and keep customers ahead of the curve in their CAD and CAE applications for plant design by providing a solution that was scalable, complete, and, most of all, radically easier to use than anything out there. Basically, we set out to do for plant design what we were already doing in piping analysis with CAESAR II and vessel design and evaluation with PV Elite, and I think the rapid growth of CADWorx suggests we achieved and may have even exceeded our goals." Van Laan explained. "This year, those attending PELC will, for the first time, have the opportunity to see the easy-to-use 2D and 3D design capabilities and cross-discipline information sharing that have made CADWorx so popular among plant designers and engineers."
The latest edition of CADWorx provides enhancements such as Dashboard to quickly edit and view design information by grouping various design tools all in one place, advanced navigation for allowing transparent pans or zooms in either orthogonal or perspective mode, and walk and path animation tools that simplify path-based walkthrough and animations right inside of AutoCAD so that plant designers using CADWorx can easily identify points of interest within a model and create editable walkthrough paths.
