Piping design questions, answered.

Samtech3D supports AutoCAD Plant 3D, AVEVA E3D, AVEVA PDMS, Autodesk Navisworks, and CAESAR II, plus common laser scanning / point cloud workflows (Leica, FARO). Deliverables can include models, IFC isometrics, GAs, BOMs, and fabrication spool packages.

Both. Most design and drafting work is delivered remotely with secure file exchange. On-site support is available when walkdowns, scan coordination, or field verification add value - especially for Northeast Ohio and Midwest projects, with travel arranged as needed across the U.S.

Yes. Beyond modeling, Samtech3D provides Plant 3D advanced administration: specs and catalogs, custom parts, XML project configuration, standards cleanup, and C#/.NET automation support when teams need the tool configured correctly for production work.

We convert point clouds into piping-relevant as-built models and tie-in packages - clearances, connection points, and coordination views - then update Plant 3D, E3D, PDMS, or drawing sets so design decisions match what is actually in the plant.

Fabrication-ready spool packages typically include spool break planning (shop vs field welds), spool drawings, cut lists / BOMs, and coordination with approved IFC isometrics so the shop can fabricate and ship without guesswork.

Samtech3D supports CAESAR II analysis workflows and stress-aware routing: model/export preparation from Plant 3D or E3D, analysis support, and layout revisions based on flexibility and support findings. Scope is defined per project so handoffs to your stress engineer stay clear when required.

Chemical, oil and gas, food processing, pharmaceutical, refinery, battery materials, and general industrial plants. The focus is practical piping design that fabricators and constructors can build from.

Most inquiries receive a response within one business day. Work can often start as soon as scope, software environment, and files (P&IDs, models, scans, markups) are shared. Urgent overflow support is available when deadlines are tight.

Samtech3D is based in Northeast Ohio (Cleveland area) and supports clients across the United States through remote delivery, with on-site visits when the project needs them.
