“Octave Forte 3DWorx had a positive impact on our business almost immediately, enabling us to reduce the time to create and modify 3D design models.”

— Chief Engineer, Mayekawa Manufacturing Company.

Octave Forte 3DWorx (formerly CADWorx® Plant Professional) is a smart, data-centric plant design solution operating on a flexible DWG platform. By transitioning to the Octave ecosystem, Forte 3DWorx helps engineering teams optimize the entire design process—from process schematics to detailed 3D models and as-built drawings—ensuring absolute accuracy within a familiar CAD environment (AutoCAD or BricsCAD).

Benefits of Octave Forte 3DWorx

The solution inherits the full power of CADWorx, with a development roadmap focused on automation, collaboration, and data accuracy.

🚀 Rapid Deployment

Works directly on familiar AutoCAD/BricsCAD platforms, allowing engineers to start designing immediately without extensive training time.

📐 Spec-Driven Design

Specification-driven technology ensures consistency, automates component placement, and maintains compliance with standards.

🏗️ High Scalability

Easily adapts to projects of any size, from small brownfield modifications to large-scale greenfield industrial complexes.

🛠️ Safety Analysis

Bi-directional integration with Aspect Pipe Stress (CAESAR II) for stress analysis, ensuring engineering safety during the design phase.

🔄 Automated Deliverables

Uses Isogen® to automatically generate Isometric drawings, 2D plans, and Bills of Materials (BOM), reducing costly manual errors.

🔗 P&ID – 3D Sync

Maintains a tight link between process schematics (Facets P&IDWorx) and the 3D model, ensuring data is always synchronized.

📈 Proven Efficiency: 15% labor-hour savings | 70% faster calculation time | 9% reduction in engineering errors.
