The intelligent solution for support planning
LISEGA's unique modular system was the prerequisite for the creation of highly sophisticated user software. The solutions on hand open up new opportunities for increased engineering design efficiency, improved quality and significant savings in project manhours.
The general introduction of 2D and 3D CAD modelling has already had a dramatic effect on the design process for pipework systems. However, the benefits for pipe support design have been limited because supports were not included in the 3D CAD programs. The LICAD® program has set new standards in this field.
It allows the generation of pipe support drawings, bills of materials and 3-D models in minutes rather than hours. LICAD is an intelligent front-end program that provides all the required interface data for all common CAD software programs from a single source. From the point of view of quality this single source function cannot be overemphasised.
To exploit further fields of application for the LICAD user, LISEGA has also developed supplementary software. The complete package includes:
- LICAD, planning and design software for pipe supports
- EASYSTEEL, design program for secondary steel
- import and export interfaces for tables and databases
- interfaces with 3D CAD component packages
- 2D / 3D libraries for different CAD programs
- interfaces to independent 3D viewer programs
- Internet communication systems for downloading program updates and transmitting project information including drawings and orders
