Migration from Bentley AutoPlant to AutoCAD Plant 3D

Hello Everyone!

I have base of pipes, fittings, flanges and others in Bentley AutoPlant (*.mdb).

How I can convert this base to AutoCAD Plant 3D?

Hi,

 

The Spec Editor provides you with access to the AuotPLANT conversion utility that you can use to convert AutoPLANT Specs and Catalogs to Plant 3D Specs and Catalogs. See attachment.

 

The converter essentially maps AutoPLANT class and geometry definitions to their Plant 3D equivalents.

 

Through the Settings option, you can add to and modify the list of AP classes and their definitions.

 

However, if you do have AP classes that are not already mapped in the settings that are delivered out of the box, you will need to have a good understanding of how to create new Plant 3D content before you will be able to make sense of how you add the new AP classes to the mapping settings.

 

Regards,

Andy

Thank you Andy!

I don't know how I missed this button 🙂

But, now I have another problem with Spec Editor.

When I launch conventer AutoPLANT catalogs in SpecEditor and adding mdb file with AutoPLANT catalogs, he said me that "There is 0 catalogs was converting" and in log file - " failure Unable to open MDB file".

Microsoft Office with Access was installed. 

Please help.

Hello Guys,

 

I have drawings done by AutoPlant 3D Bentley. Is there a way to convert them to autodesk Plant 3D design?

 

Thank you

 

Nawfel
