1
Software Framework An automated pipe shop needs automating software
3
Three main applications for different tasks
IsoBuilder RAMP JointCheck Engineering, drawings Fabrication, production control QA / QC, quality tracking
4
Line and spool drawings
etc. Line and spool drawings IsoBuilder Material & symbol database Production data etc. Material warehousing Notification ERP Systems RAMP JointCheck QA / QC Systems Scheduling Control Feedback QC Feedback Pipe Shop
5
Line and spool drawings
etc. Line and spool drawings IsoBuilder Material & symbol database Production data etc. Material warehousing Notification ERP Systems RAMP JointCheck QA / QC Systems Scheduling Control Feedback QC Feedback Pipe Shop
6
Key features Creation / import of line or spool drawings
Import via 3rd party programs: e.g. Aveva, Catia, Intergraph, Nupas Cadmatic, NX, etc. Automatic splitting of line drawings into spools Automatic exchange of elbows with cost-saving bends Maximization of automatic welds, minimization of manual welds Automatic generation of reports: Dia Inch, bill of materials, worksheets
7
Automatic spool splitting based on customer specifications (Pipe length, box size, wall penetrations, etc.)
8
Automatic or manual welding of every individual seam
Based on available machines in the pipeshop
9
Weld seams are optimized to increase automatic welds & minimize manual welds
Operator can toggle between field/shop welds & manual/automatic welds afterwards
10
Elbows can be automatically turned into machine bends (where applicable)
The amount of welds gets reduced
11
Worksheets for lines and spools can be generated as AutoCAD DXF or PDF
12
Pipes, fittings and materials can be listed in part lists
13
Dia-Inch Reports for shop welds, field welds and installation welds
14
Line and spool drawings
etc. Line and spool drawings IsoBuilder Material & symbol database Production data etc. Material warehousing Notification ERP Systems RAMP JointCheck QA / QC Systems Scheduling Control Feedback QC Feedback Pipe Shop
15
Key features Production planning and monitoring software
Management of material Scheduling of production Balancing of workload on workstations Reporting of production data Reporting of history data Tracking of spools until installation Generation of CNC cutting and bending data
16
Material management Management of project stock and heat numbers
Synchronization with external material management systems possible
17
Packaging / Scheduling
Automatic or manual selection of spools for next day/week production Support of production management (holding, stock selection, setting of end dates) Automatic calculation of required material Material availability checks Calculation of fabrication time Balancing workload of machines
18
Packaging / Scheduling
Start and end dates of spools can be set manually or synchronized with an ERP scheduling system
19
Scheduling / Balancing
Without Balancing Uneven workload distribution Available capacities remain unused Workload Too little Optimum Too much
20
Scheduling / Balancing
Workload report in planning phase Automatic balancing of workload
21
Scheduling / Balancing
With Balancing Increased efficiency and productivity Optimized use of available capacities and times Workload Too little Optimum Too much
22
Package monitoring Live-Monitoring of current spool states and progress of production
23
Package monitoring Editable working time table for spool production time estimation Updated automatically by workstep time measuring at workstations
24
Package monitoring Adjust the machine state (online/offline) for production time calculations
25
Cutting app Software assisting the band saw and flame cutting workstations Automatic CNC data conversion and transfer to machine
26
Bending app Software assisting the bending process with feasibility checks Automatic CNC data conversion and transfer to machine
27
Fit-up / welding app Software assisting the automatic and manual fit-up stations Operators can rotate the spool in 3D via touchscreen
28
Basketing / after shop tracking
Basketing of spools for transport optimization After shop tracking for quick access to stored spools
29
3D spool state tracking Live state monitoring of spool state by color
30
Line and spool drawings
etc. Line and spool drawings IsoBuilder Material & symbol database Production data etc. Material warehousing Notification ERP Systems RAMP JointCheck QA / QC Systems Scheduling Control Feedback QC Feedback Pipe Shop
31
Key features Tracking of detailed fit-up and welding information during fabrication Information forwarding to 3rd party systems Available as web-based smartphone and tablet app or as client application Support for typical QA/QC mandatory reporting information Automatic generation of QA/QC reports ▪ Fitup report ▪ Welding report ▪ Joint History report ▪ NDT requests Automatic generation of performance reports ▪ Welder performance ▪ Performance per station ▪ Daily Progress report
32
Tracking Easy access to joint history information and editing by operators Client App Mobile app
33
