“M4 was the only package that offered the full variety of tools within a single software suite and the ability to design our own parametric catalog components. It is easy to manage and administrate without any special memory requirements. Finally, CAD Schroer values long-term relationships as much as we do.”
Marcello Zanella, Layout Manager at Mariani

Extensive catalogues and comprehensive quality control
In M4 PLANT, 3D pipework design is “spec driven” using project-specific specifications. The system is supplied with extensive piping component catalogues, to support the rapid design of entire pipe systems. Automated consistency and collision checking ensures a high quality, error-free design. The project’s cost effectiveness can be checked at any time by means of reports and parts lists that are automatically generated by the system.
