COADE Releases new CADWorx Design Review 2008 for fast, efficient Plant Design Model Review

HOUSTON, TEXAS – March 31, 2008 – COADE announced today the release of CADWorx Design Review 2008, the first product developed specifically to provide faster and easier review of CADWorx and ancillary plant design models by designers, project managers, facility owners and other stakeholders involved in the review, modification and approval of the design prior to fabrication or construction.

CADWorx Design Review makes collaboration efficient and fast because each stakeholder can see an accurate 3D model of how the design will look when completed, and its highly intuitive, interactive tools make it easy to produce review deliverables such as markups, comments and red-lining. It reduces the need to interpret the design using cumbersome paper printouts and other non-interactive tools, saving time and helping lessen the risk of overlooking design errors that would cost much more to fix later during fabrication and construction.

With CADWorx Design Review, you can easily create informative and visually stunning animated models, choosing desired settings for color, transparency, shadows, layers, specs and other elements. You select an animation path line and can easily adjust it at any time to view the model in any combination of the six degrees of freedom plus yaw, pitch and roll. Powerful navigation tools provide easy, smooth and judder-free movement around the 3D model during review.


The program converts even large files quickly and compactly, producing review files that are up to one eighth of the original model size. It automatically includes all cross-referenced (X-REFed) files into the review model, eliminating the slow task of individually loading the separate model files that make up a complete design. CADWorx Design Review provides full integration with CADWorx Plant, providing the same model information as in a CADWorx design session, including descriptions, line numbers, weights and other plant design data.
