Computer Aided Engineering (CAE)

CAE refers to the use of computer programs for the planning and execution of plant building projects. Among other things, the programs allow the creation of process flow diagrams, piping and instrumentation diagrams, and functional design specifications. The visual representation of the components is commonly linked to a database in which properties such as design values and material specifications are defined. CAE-programs are an indispensable tool for the interaction between process engineering and electrical engineering not only to define the electrical requirements but also to describe the complex signale exchange that interconnects the components with each other and with the distributed control system. The central storage with a database allows for efficient and secure processing of the data. Functionalities to do process simulations and three dimensional modelling of the plant are usually not part of CAE-programs.

What we can do for you!

We create the documents required for the execution of the plant building project via CAE-program.

We ensure that all relevant properties and requirements of the components of the plant are listed in the database and that they are available for the further project execution.

We define the signal exchange in the CAE-program according to the control concept.
