MagiCAD Piping

Sometimes changes to piping criteria (material, cost etc.) require designers to change the entire pipe series mid-project. Customizable size mapping in MagiCAD makes it easy to change the pipe series for existing networks without losing any critical parameter information and ensures a correct replacement for each item in the series.

Configure radiator connection sets that include all the components needed for a complete radiator.

The MagiCAD radiator installation function allows you to configure radiator connection sets that include all the components needed for a complete radiator. Selecting a suitable connection set from the saved configurations is easy. After a connection set has been added to the radiator, they are automatically installed together as a unit.

Readymade connection sets make it fast and easy to perform radiator connections and to compare different connection alternatives.

MagiCAD's product selection tool makes it easy for the user to select the correct product fast and accurately depending on the design criteria.

Once the product selection is made, specifically developed product placement tools help the user to install the chosen product and align it to other products' offset levels; place it to the end or to the side of the pipe, or array the product in a specific pattern. All piping products modelled in the MagiCAD library include the needed geometrical and technical information. In addition, everything is delivered with a suitable localised library for needed 2D symbols.

Piping design has been made fast and easy with several options. For a fast configuration of your routing preferences for pipe work modelling, copy the used setting from an already modelled segment by using MagiCAD’s reference button, then if needed change the system, fittings and insulation. The Pipe Connection tool displays a real-time preview of the piping connection being made reducing the need to try out various routing settings and makes for more efficient use of the connection functionality.

Our intelligent set of functions simplifies and facilitates your pipe work modelling quality and productivity. Functions include:

• 3D section box
• multi crossing tool
• angle to horizontal (video)
• standard connection (video)
• pipe device connection
• branch copy (video)
• smart move (video)

MagiCAD Libraries are Europe's largest selection of BIM objects for MEP design

MagiCAD Libraries offer a wide selection of high-quality BIM objects. Designers utilizing MagiCAD can utilise the full catalogue of one million intelligent BIM objects and access detailed, accurate dimensions and comprehensive technical data. The Library represents products from over 280 international manufacturers.

Advanced search functionalities are offered also through the online service, MagiCAD Cloud. It enables product selection & download directly from MagiCAD Cloud library into your MagiCAD projects

MagiCAD Create is a complementary software for creating custom MEP product libraries for both MagiCAD for Revit MEP and MagiCAD for AutoCAD. MagiCAD Create is available as a separate desktop application and also accessible directly from the MagiCAD interface.

MagiCAD Create enables you to model a comprehensive set of Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing products using easy-to-use modelling functions. If you need to use specific products which are not part of our ready-made selection of over 1,000,000 manufacturer-specific product models, you can download and install MagiCAD Create and begin modelling.

MagiCAD Create be downloaded free-of-charge directly from the MagiCAD user interface using the Plugin Manager function or from the MagiCAD Download Portal. You can open MagiCAD Create from the desktop or from the MagiCAD user interface.

Modelling with MagiCAD Create is easy because you can define custom products by editing the dimensions and technical properties of MagiCAD’s existing generic product databases. You can create additional databases for MagiCAD according to your project needs and edit the properties of the new products and product variants.

Plugins connect selection tool or configurator to MagiCAD

When the manufacturer has highly customizable products, a large number of product variants, or they want to help their customers in selecting and installing the most suitable product in each situation, a product selection plugin is specifically developed. Over 20 MagiCAD Plugins connect manufacturers’ product selection and calculation software directly to MagiCAD, making product selection faster, easier and more accurate.

Once you have selected a product, you can import and place the product from the plugin in your MagiCAD model just as any other intelligent MagiCAD object. Information about the dimensions and technical data is included in the product model.

You will also get direct access to a wider range of more complex and more configurable products.

MagiCAD’s filtering options allow you to easily identify the correct radiators for each space. During radiator installation, you can select suitable valves for the radiator, or use a ready-made radiator connection set that includes all the components needed for the radiator connection.

Connecting radiators to main pipes is easy. The MagiCAD radiator connection tool offers a wide range of possible connection alternatives and allows you to connect multiple radiators simultaneously, saving time and reducing the need for repeated work.

MagiCAD's product selection tool makes it easy for the user to select the correct product fast and accurrately depending on the design criteria.

MagiCAD is a full-blown 3D modelling tool which combines modelling features together with production of 2D paper drawings – and without a need to do any conversions. There are versatile possibilities to configure the presentation of 2D drawings including a wide range of ready-made symbols.

MagiCAD includes specifically developed tools for modelling the piping network. Drawing pipes with MagiCAD is extremely easy and convenient, whether it is heating or cooling pipes, domestic water, sewage or sprinkler pipes. MagiCAD offers versatile possibilities for automated device connections as well as routing possibilities. For heating and cooling as well as domestic water networks, MagiCAD offers extremely convenient simultaneous drawing of 2 or 3 pipes with user defined distance and routing preferences.

For a fast configuration of your routing preferences for pipe work modelling, copy the used setting from an already modelled segment by using MagiCAD’s reference button, then if needed, change system’s fittings and insulation.
