AutoCAD P&ID 2011
Create, modify, and manage piping and instrumentation diagrams |
Built on the latest AutoCAD software platform, AutoCAD P&ID is easy to use and familiar to designers and engineers. So design teams can start quickly with minimal training. AutoCAD P&ID streamlines and automates common design tasks. With simple reporting, editing, sharing, and validation of design information, projects can start more easily, run better, and finish sooner. AutoCAD P&ID is included in the Autodesk Plant Design Suites.
- Data Manager—Manage engineering data with change-management, viewing, and editing functionality.
- Dynamic lines and components—Simplify repeated tasks. Create, move, and snap lines and components into place with intuitive grip editing.
- Symbol libraries—Snap industry-standard symbols (PIP, ISA, JIS, ISO/DIN) or customized symbols into drawings.
- Tagging and annotations—Create, customize, and edit tags and annotations. Properties propagate automatically. Drag and drop information from the Data Manager.
- Reporting and information exchange—Import data into formatted tables, and export into various file formats.
- Validation—Error check to increase accuracy and reduce the time to identify problems.

AutoCAD P&ID Productivity Study for Autodesk
What did the results show?
The results show that, for a 'typical' combination of P&ID work, AutoCAD P&ID offers dramatic productivity improvements over AutoCAD. For the range of tasks completed with both systems, the average productivity gain across all users was 42%. The test also supported strongly the claim that the transition from AutoCAD to AutoCAD P&ID is straightforward.

| How Tenix Alliance cut diagram creation from 6 months to 3 months |
Working with AutoCAD P&ID allowed Tenix Alliance to:
- Halve the time taken to produce piping and instrumentation diagrams
- Minimize overall design delivery time
- Improve the accuracy of component lists
- Gain new functionality in a familiar interface
"We already use AutoCAD, so it wasn't a difficult learning curve to use the P&ID product as well," says Callegari.
"Instead of manually counting the number of pumps or valves in the diagram, the engineers could just run a report and have all the information they needed at their fingertips," says Callegari. "That cut the total engineering time from two months to about two weeks."

"When we did it the old way, creating the process and instrumentation diagrams for a large water treatment plant took about six months," says Callegari. "A similar-sized plant using AutoCAD P&ID only took three months.
