Convert AVEVA E3D piping into native Plant 3D piping

Transfer E3D piping data to Plant 3D without rebuilding line by line. ModelSwap targets native Plant 3D objects and existing catalogues.

How can E3D piping become native Plant 3D data?

A geometric exchange helps teams view the model. It does not create Plant 3D piping that follows existing catalogues and editing workflows.

The usual approaches

IFC export and generic primitives

An IFC import displays piping geometry and retains some properties. It does not create native Plant 3D objects associated with your existing specifications and catalogues.

Manual remodelling

Manual remodelling recreates piping lines, components, and data in Plant 3D. It takes time and must be repeated whenever the E3D model changes.

ModelSwap: a structured conversion workflow

ModelSwap rebuilds native Plant 3D piping from E3D data. The created elements use the specifications and catalogues already defined for your project.

How ModelSwap works

ModelSwap maps E3D piping data to native Plant 3D objects.
