VAG USECAD® 7.0 – OUR FREE SOFTWARE THAT SIMPLIFIES YOUR VALVE PLANNING! From concept design through to installation, long term and demanding users agree that VAG UseCAD® 7.0 is the must have valve support tool for Engineers, Consultants and Technicians.
The 3D CAD valve library is a special highlight of version 7.0. The database supports you in your 3D project planning, providing the required 3D valve blocks in a wide variety of output formats. While 2D drawings were still the standard planning format a few years ago, working methods are increasingly moving into the third dimension. VAG UseCAD® 7.0 with its large number of 3D valve CAD blocks meets these requirements. Users can select the valve type followed by the preferred operating method such as a handweel or a specific type of actuator. Having made this decision, users select the required nominal diameters or make a choice based on other dimension parameters which are relevant to their decision, such as the nominal pressure. Once the desired version has been chosen, VAG UseCAD® 7.0 automatically generates the precise 3D model in a matter of seconds.
The solid models generated with VAG UseCAD® 7.0 can be exported in all the standard 3D formats such as DWG 3D, IGES 3D, SAT 3D or STEP 3D. They can then be imported into a wide variety of user planning systems and be adjusted in these systems. Special attention was paid to the critical valve components since their flexibility can have a decisive impact on how the plant is designed.
