Design process systems for material recycling facility(MRF) using AutoCAD Plant 3D

I design process systems for recycling sorting facilities. And you want to use AutoCAD Plant 3D tools for this design. However, I think that AutoCAD Plant 3D is mainly for plumbing, so I wonder if it is appropriate for me to design using this tool. I want to hear from people who have similar questions to me.

Dear @koreaenc_kr ,

 

Plant 3D is not for plumping! For that he gives MEP.
How many pipe systems do you have to process?
From what I see it is more of a task for Inventor in the main task should piping systems be needed this can of course be done via Plant 3D.

It's more of a motor control than a pipe. and electric control box

In Plant 3D, the focus is on piping in 3D planning and P&ID in connection with pipelines.
For motor controls and switch boxes I think it is the right programme.

Take a look at the factory design utilities. It is a part of the PDM collection. It will do exactly what you need. It is Inventor based with a link to both AutoCAD MEP/Architectural and Navisworks. Any additional layouting you can do in AutoCAD, any additional mechanical designs you can cover in Inventor and any clash detection, simulation, presentation you can do in Navisworks.

It designed specifically for this kind of factory layouting. It also contains modules to calculate workflows from one workstation to another, so you can identify efficiency issues, workflow bottlenecks, labor workloads.
