Intelligent CAD navigation with FTZ software
In the field of electrical CAD, building wiring and P&ID, fluid navigation is a key element in ensuring efficient studies and significant time savings. At FTZ, we have developed advanced functionalities that enable design offices to navigate through their projects faster, smarter and more efficiently.
Navigation designed to speed up your work
The SchemELECT, SchemBAT and SchemPID software include advanced navigation tools to help you quickly find a symbol, component or specific information without wasting time :
- Instant access to related elements: symbols, components, circuits, contacts, cabinets, terminal strips, enclosures, parts lists, etc.
- Optimised search based on precise criteria: find exactly what you’re looking for by filtering by type, location or relationship between elements
- Seamless switching between views: alternate easily between a global view of the project and a precise zoom on a specific element
Intelligent shortcuts for fast access
FTZ set up intuitive shortcuts to simplify navigation between pages and diagrams. There’s no longer any need to scroll through your folios manually, just a few clicks are all it takes to access the information you need.
Examples of optimisation by software :
- SchemELECT : Instant access to contacts, coils, terminals, terminal strips, cabinets and parts lists, potential referrals, etc.
- SchemBAT : Switch between layouts, circuits, diagrams, terminal strips and enclosures with a single click, calculation software for a complete view of your project
- SchemPID : Navigate easily between pipes, equipment and instruments.
These features guarantee smooth, uninterrupted management of your electrical and P&ID studies.
Reducing errors through intelligent navigation
- Cross-link navigation: follow the relationships between the elements of your project without having to search for them manually
- Automatic detection of inconsistencies: anomalies and conflicts are highlighted directly in the diagrams
- Automatic updating of linked elements: any change to a plan is instantly reflected on all the pages concerned, even in different parts of the file, thanks to the principle of cross-referencing.
Thanks to these tools, you can achieve greater precision, consistency and reliability, reducing the risk of errors and inconsistencies in your plan designs.
Measurable time savings
SchemELECT, SchemBAT and SchemPID users report up to 30% time savings in searches, navigation and project updates.
This time saving translates directly into :
- Increased productivity
- Stricter adherence to deadlines
- Errors avoided
Conclusion: Optimised navigation for better performance
The software doesn’t just give you powerful tools, it’s designed to save you time and improve your workflow.
Thanks to intelligent navigation, optimised shortcuts and seamless interconnectivity, your electrical and P&ID studies become faster, more accurate and more intuitive.
