Case Study: L&T Heavy Engineering streamlines vessel design and reduces cycle time with Hexagon PV Elite

L&T’s Heavy Engineering IC Succeeds with PV Elite® in its Multi-project Environment

Larsen & Toubro's Heavy Engineering, a major Indian manufacturer of industrial equipment, sought to streamline the design process for its pressure vessels and heat exchangers. The company needed to incorporate custom client and code requirements without relying on supplemental software, and it required highly accurate calculations for weight and center of gravity to improve project planning.

By implementing Hexagon's PV Elite software, L&T's engineers were able to complete full vessel designs, including non-code components, within a single application. This solution from Hexagon provided precise calculations that eliminated manual effort, accelerated client and third-party approvals, and substantially reduced the overall design cycle time. As a result, L&T can now evaluate over 400 designs annually, submit more competitive bids, and secure increased client orders.
