OrthoGen Value Proposition

Considerable man-hours are consumed on projects

Business Problem Creating orthographic deliverables semi-automatically
Editing or re-creating orthographics in line with the changes made to the 3D model

Solution Automate orthographic deliverables creation via OrthoGen

Eliminate time consuming, error prone and costly 2D drawing creation and re-editing work
processes
Increase the quality, accuracy and consistency of project deliverables
Improve productivity through automatic layout of co-ordinates and dimensions, annotation
Benefits
and tagging
Enhance communications through clear, unambiguous, presentation of complex
engineering information
Provide industry standard orthographic deliverables expected by your clients

Future
Plans/Strategy or
Further improvements to how OrthoGen interfaces with AutoCAD

ORTHOGENLAUNCH
Launches OrthoGen (appears on top of CADWorx)

ORTHOGENOUT
Runs OrthoGen against a previously saved production-ready script (*.scr) file

CADWorx > OrthoGen Workflow

Step 1:
Attach / overlay XREFs and grid.dwg to CADWorx model
Switch to layout / paper space, attach a drawing border
Create viewport(s) and position on the drawing sheet
Edit the viewports scale (as appropriate) and lock the viewport(s)
Run 2D Rep on the viewport(s)
Step 2:
Click ORTHOGENLAUNCH on the OrthoGen palette
Create a new or modify an existing SDI drawing style
Submit creates a script (*.scr) file for production use
Step 3:
Click ORTHOGENOUT on the OrthoGen palette
Select script file
OrthoGen runs and annotates the viewport(s)
The Layout tab is made current and the result is displayed

Label Editing What Happens?

Object deleted from the model:

Label will be deleted Before: After:

Object moved in model:

Label will be re-white spaced (moved)
Label edited by ACAD edit:
Label will be put back to what is in the model
Label rotated by ACAD rotate command:
Rotation will be preserved
Object at same location in model but the label has been moved with
ACAD selector tool:
Label stays where user moved it

Summary / Takeaways

OrthoGen is an industry standard, with a proven track record, strong

value proposition, and fast ROI
OrthoGen generated drawings usually require some minor touch-up
Edits made by users are remembered and repeated
Intergraph provides services to implement and configure OrthoGen
Only models created after OrthoGen has been installed will work
with OrthoGen (existing models can be enabled if required to be
compatible with OrthoGen)
Combined with ISOGEN, it is now possible to create automatically
all of your CADWorx project deliverables - isos and orthos - quickly,
easily, consistently and accurately!
