What software do you use to draw the process flow?

Chemical process flow chart? The most commonly used one is probably CAD, right? However, most of the auto CADs used are pirated, and some domestic secondary developed CADs are pretty good.

I use AUTOCAD2004 and can draw the blocks myself

If you don't need very precise dimensions, I suggest you use VISIO 2003 to draw, it will be faster than learning autocad.

Usually AUTO CAD is used to draw, and VISIO is used to draw because the equipment has modules. Personally, I think both can be used, since there are no special requirements for flow charts anyway.

I use Visio and it’s faster to get started than AutoCAD.

The process flow diagram can use Auto CAD schematic diagram VISIO

I don’t know if VISIO’s drawings are compatible with CAD. If not, I’d better use CAD. It’s convenient and everyone is using it. :lol

I haven’t tried it, but it seems that Visio can read CAD files. If I talk about professionalism, of course it’s CAD.

Use CAD to first draw a block such as a tower tank pump arrow, then paste it into the corresponding position to zoom in and out, and finally draw the process pipeline to fill in the arrow.

The process flow is relatively standardized using CAD, and the drawing is formal and beautiful.

CADWorx p&id is very easy to use.

We all draw using CAD~

CAD can do it haha

PIDCAD is developed on the basis of Autocad, and it is very convenient to draw process flow diagrams.

You can use either AUTOCAD or MICROSTATION. Personally, I prefer MICROSTATION. If you need to simulate process calculations, you can try ASPEN PLUS.

It is very good to use CAD. There is a lot of relevant information in the software area. You can check it out yourself.

CAD is good, but it’s not easy to learn. I’ve never used the others, but I’ve used CAXA, and I feel it’s much easier to learn, and it’s good to use. It’s enough for drawing schematic diagrams. I have also used the drawing function of WORD to draw, and it is just as good and simpler once I am familiar with it.

If you are more professional, it is better to learn CADWORX PID.

The drawings produced by our factory are all from autoCAD:handshake
