Helsinki Shipyard: Data-Driven Pipe Spool Fabrication with PipeCloud and AVEVA E3D

For AI Translation, click here >> How can shipyards industrialize the fabrication of highly customized pipe spools? In this session, Helsinki Shipyard and PipeCloud demonstrate how engineering data from AVEVA E3D can be used to create a fully data-driven fabrication workflow. By leveraging PCF exports from E3D, design data is transformed into actionable manufacturing information, enabling automated work effort calculation, production planning, CNC program generation, and real-time progress tracking. The solution also incorporates smart remnant management and optimized cut nesting, reducing material waste by approximately 10% while improving efficiency, traceability, and sustainability across the AVEVA ecosystem.
