Case Study: Corrigan Company achieves faster, more accurate spool drawings with Hexagon Spoolgen

Corrigan Company Fabricates 11,000 Feet Of Pipe For Brewery With Intergraph Spoolgen

Corrigan Company, a mechanical contractor, faced the challenge of generating fabrication spool drawings for its piping projects using slow, manual AutoCAD or hand-drawn methods. This arduous process required obtaining dimensioned vendor drawings for every component, which was time-consuming and hindered efficiency. The vendor, Hexagon, provided its Intergraph Spoolgen® solution to address this.

Hexagon's solution utilized piping data files from the engineering firm to allow Corrigan to automatically generate accurate shop drawings and bills of materials. This transformed the workflow, enabling the fabrication of over 11,000 feet of pipe for a major brewery project. The result was a significantly faster and more accurate process, with the automatically produced bills of materials proving very helpful for ordering and separating materials.
