PlantLinker is an advanced software tool for preliminary plant design 3D modeling with interfaces to leading

process and engineering design systems such as Intergraph Smart 3D and Tekla Structures.

Solutions to Common Issues

Reuse any part of a completed project in other projects.
Project Integrity is maintained even when new design team members join the project at a later date.
Neutral data files with open structure are used to store, archive, and retrieve intelligent process plant
and structure models.
Brownfield and joint-venture projects are ideally suited.
Key Features
Easy Setup
Minimum Training
Works for Equipment, Piping, Structure, Electrical, HVAC disciplines
Combines data from multiple sources
Flexible data processing
Independence from Smart3D or Tekla Structures projects
Simplified reference data for preliminary design
Database free
It is a genuine model
Restored objects will function as original Smart3D or Tekla Structures objects.

The transfer delivers a fully intelligent model that can be used to generate project deliverables (drawings,
isos, reports, etc) if required.

Compatibility
Smart3D v2014 or higher
Tekla Structures v2016 or higher
