DC43® Piping

Optimise bending pipe designs with automation

DC43® Piping enables the automated creation of piping layouts using proprietary optimisation algorithms. The module allows the user to efficiently calculate a pipe bend layout within complex geometries based on a piping schematic, considering criteria such as length, number of bends, and manufacturability with a rotary draw bending machine.

DC43® Piping Data

Consistent Schematics for Smarter Automation

DC43® Piping Data allows you to define piping schematics and set boundary conditions such as minimum straight lengths, fixed bending radii of bending machines, and arbitrary bending angles. Existing schematics can be imported from other tools and enhanced with connection points or supports. This ensures a precise foundation for automated tube bending optimisation in complex installation space geometries.

DC43® Piping Optimisation

Optimised Piping with Multi-Criteria Flexibility

DC43® Piping Optimisation automatically creates an optimised pipeline layout for bending pipes using a combination of Automated Pathfinding and Path Optimisation. Define adjustable criteria such as number of bends, pipe length and bend angle to ensure efficient and collision-free routing and flexibly adapt the solution to different problems.

DC43® Piping Analysis

Detailed piping geometry analysis and export

DC43® Piping Analysis enables the detailed analysis and visualisation of piping geometries. Generate precise pipe geometries, create bending tables and record statistical parameters for optimised production. Export the results in common CAD formats to ensure seamless integration into downstream processes.
