  • Hi Amanpreet,

    Thank you for posting your query in Plant Forum. 

    Intelligent block containing Equipment information is called Custom Equipment in AutoPLANT Modeler.

    To create a custom equipment containing intelligent data using basic shapes please refer the steps below:

    1. Launch an Equipment model from Bentley Document Manager.

    2. In a loaded model from Equipment menu select Equipment primitives and place a rectangular blocks.

    3. Create a tag for the Equipment.

    4. Select the dimensions of block.

    5. Double click on primitive and you must be able to change the tags.

    6. Similarly use Equipment primitives, associated primitives and transition components to create Custom Equipments.

    7. Place a nozzle on the Equipment.

    8. The nozzle will be associated to the component.

    Hope the required steps help you to create a new Custom Equipment. If you have any similar query please create a Service Request so that we can take it on priority and help you.
