High-Fidelity 2D and 3D Viewing and Printing

PROBLEM
Project teams need a comprehensive solution for publishing, distributing, reviewing, and
printing engineering data. Companies work with multiple file formats and need an easy-touse
solution to deploy throughout their workforce.
Designers invest tremendous time in their engineering and architectural designs and need
to protect them from unauthorized viewing and editing. They need a file format that
securely protects their intellectual property.
In addition to security, designers need a file format that preserves the rich information
contained in their designs. For viewing and printing, it’s essential that the designs are
presented with the full fidelity of the original CAD drawing.
SOLUTION
Autodesk DWF Composer is built around the DWF file format, an ideal format for sharing
engineering drawings, maps, and models. It is the fastest, easiest way to communicate
design information while ensuring secure and efficient collaboration at any stage of the
project or product lifecycle.
Autodesk DWF Composer supports the high-fidelity viewing and printing of 2D and 3D
DWF files. When viewing DWF files, you see the design as the designer intended—it’s
essentially an electronic plot. DWF files include rich design information, such as layers,
views, sheet properties, units, and scale. When printing DWF files, users see an accurate
rendition of the original design. You can also print to scale with precision. Autodesk DWF
Composer also provides access to other printing features to print to any Microsoft®
Windows® -compatible printer and accommodate available hardware.
For users who need to view or print designs in the native AutoCAD or Autodesk Inventor
file formats, Autodesk DWF Composer comes with a DWG Viewer that enables viewing,
plotting, and publishing to DWF format from DWG files, as well as Autodesk Inventor View

Making Vital Operational Information Available to Plant Managers

Located in Kenai, Alaska, Agrium KNO
processes natural gas to produce nutrient-rich
fertilizers such as ammonia and urea. The plant’s
processing facilities rely upon an extensive
network of piping that transports the gases
and product from one end of the facility to
another, with up to half a mile between stops.
Accordingly, plant personnel depend on detailed
piping and instrumentation diagrams that allow
them to stay informed.
“We have piping and instrumentation diagrams
that follow all of our piping from different
equipment locations in the plant,” explained
Mike Dunn, the CAD Administrator for Agrium’s
Kenai Nitrogen Operations. “It is imperative that
our plant operators have access to this data for
routine operations, or to troubleshoot problems
in the unlikely event of some type of process upset,
or in planning changes to the current system.”
No other format could properly render the
rich, detailed imagery of the piping and
instrumentation diagrams. “Our diagrams have
a lot of information packed onto them,” said
Dunn. “And they can be anywhere from 33 units
high to 150 units long. If you try zooming in on
a PDF image of that size, the image degrades
and it becomes a blur. You can’t even see it.
We needed a digital format that allows people
to zoom in on the piping and instrumentation
diagrams as much as necessary.”
DWF’s precise, accurate, design format
The solution to Agrium KNO’s challenges lay
with Autodesk DWF. DWF is a format
that was specifically developed to handle
engineering design data. The result is a high
degree of accuracy, fidelity, and data richness,
even when viewing the most detailed of diagrams
Agrium’s Kenai Nitrogen Operations have
converted more than 700 of their piping and
instrumentation diagrams into DWFs. These
important files are readily accessible on the
company’s intranet, where DWF Viewer is
conveniently embedded into Internet Explorer.
As a result, more than 230 Agrium employees—
ranging from plant operators, electricians,
engineers, machinists, and other maintenance
personnel—have instant access to vital
operational information.
The Result
Increasing Operational Efficiency
Agrium KNO’s use of DWF has been an unqualified
success, providing employees with a level
of information access that would not have
been possible with either conventional
paper-based models of distribution or through
competing products.
“DWF is very effective at providing our employees
with the detailed data they require,” stated
Dunn.“DWFs are a cost-effective way to provide
plant personnel with the most current drawing
revisions without any additional printing costs.
Thanks to DWF, they have that information
right at their fingertips versus having to track
down a hard copy print-out. That makes us more
effective at troubleshooting any operational
problems that may arise.”
Additionally, Agrium KNO has been impressed
with DWF’s ability to manage and share information
simply, and without loss of accuracy. “DWF
is without a doubt the best tool for our needs,”
said Dunn. “We create a lot of our designs with
AutoCAD, but converting them to DWF allows
us to share them with a greater number of people
since DWF files are usually about 1/20 the size of
DWG files. Even with the reduced file size,
however, there’s no loss of fidelity with DWF—
when you zoom in on a straight line, it’s still just
a straight line. It doesn’t turn into a blurry,
undefined pixel.”
Moving forward, Agrium KNO has plans to add
even more DWFs to its company intranet.“We’ve
had great success with DWF so far,” said Dunn.
“And we expect to continue using this technology
to our advantage, to make our operations as
efficient as they can be.”

Mechanical

Mechanical Engineering is not surprisingly one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines.

Common usage meaning of mechanical is that of a device having parts that perform or assist in performing any type of work.

Mechanical engineering is the branch of engineering that encapsulates the generation and application of mechanical power, and also heat in the design, production, and use of machines and tools.

A simple machine is a device that transforms the direction or magnitude of a force, without consuming any energy.

A mechanism is said to be pertaining to a machine, or to machinery or tools, if made or formed by a machine or with machine tools, Such as in mechanical precision engineering, firms who specialise in making mechanical products.

Mechanics is the branch of physics that predicts how physical bodies and mechanisms will behave when they're subjected to a forces. Also the subsequent effect(s) of the mechanism or body on their surrounding environment.

The Mechanics discipline is deep rooted in several ancient civilizations. Sometime ago, early on during the modern period, scientists of the day including the likes of Kepler, Galileo and particularly Newton. They laid down the foundations of what is known as today as classical mechanics.

Mechanised engineering, is and will continue to be an integral key role in the development, operation and manufacture of new machines and processes that help to benefit people the world over.

Engineers can't help but to use and apply their creative imaginations and developing professional skills combining both theory and practice to aid creation of new more advanced devices and processes. To be able to do this, they need a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of scientific and engineering processes.

This is crucial to meet the demands of developing solutions to real-life problems, despite conflicting requirements. Real world commercial engineers, although specialising in one discipline, have to develop and combine broad technical and management skills to hone and maintain their competitive advantage for themselves and the companies they work for.Opens link in new window - SAME WINDOW LINKOpens link in same window --> Have a look at the Technical page
