CADprofi
Professionals don’t like to limit themselves. When you buy a full CADprofi Suite package instead of a single module, you will ensure full functionality without any compromises. Full cooperation of all four industries:
- CADprofi Mechanical
- CADprofi Architectural
- CADprofi HVAC & Piping
- CADprofi Electrical
Examples of using CADprofi Suite
- When designing electrical and HVAC installations, you can first quickly draw building plans using the architectural module.
- The rooms defined in the architectural module can be exported to the DIALux program as a ready building outline. Then, lighting fixtures selected in DIALux can be easily imported into the electrical module and afterwards you can easily assign them to appropriate electrical circuits and create specifications. Thanks to this, you can finish a complete project much faster and easier.
- In the architectural module you can designate rooms, and then using the Arrange command you can quickly arrange fire detectors, sprinklers and other objects from the electrical and HVAC & Piping modules.
- In the mechanical module you can design mounting method for tanks, trays and other objects from the electrical module as well as HVAC & piping systems.
- You can design evacuation and fire protection plans, including:
– in the architectural module you can quickly draw building plans and create evacuation, fire protection and safety plans.
– in the electrical module you can design fire detection systems, emergency lighting and other intelligent building and safety systems.
– in the HVAC & Piping module you can design any piping and vent.
installations, including fire extinguishing and smoke venting systems. - In the architectural module you can easily define the technical parameters of the rooms (lighting, ventilation, temperature, heat loss).
- When creating a building plan in the architectural module, you can
show the location of radiators (e.g. under windows or on the walls) from the HVAC & Piping module. - In the architectural module, you can easily insert bushings (culverts) for pipes, ventilation ducts and cable trays.
