2D to 3D · Piping & P&ID drawings
Turn a flat P&ID into a 3D model you can explore.
Upload the PDF of a P&ID or piping schematic. ANMASI reads the equipment, lines, valves and instruments, marks the few spots it is not sure of, and builds an interactive 3D model your team can open on site.

01 / Reads
It reads the sheet the way a fitter does.
Every symbol on the drawing becomes a part of the model, with the tag, the size and the line it sits on. Point at a group to see what it picks up.
02 / Process
Three steps from PDF to model.
- 01
Upload
Upload the PDF.
A CAD export or a clean scan of the sheet. No special format, nothing to install.
- 02
Check
Check the flagged spots.
Where the drawing is hard to read, the spot is marked with the reason, so you know exactly what to look at.
- 03
Explore
Explore the model.
Rotate it, follow a line from end to end, switch media on and off, and send a link to the site.
03 / Sample
Same station, two views.
Point at any valve, pump or line in the drawing and find it in the model, or the other way round. Drag the model to turn it.
A synthetic sample station, not a real project. The model follows the layout of the drawing; it is not a to-scale plant layout.
04 / Output
What you get for every sheet.
An interactive 3D model
Every tank, pump, line and fitting, connected in the order the drawing connects them.
Lines by size
Each line carries its DN and medium, so the sizes on the sheet are there at a glance.
Media you can tell apart
Each medium keeps the colour it has on the drawing, with its name, and any of them can be hidden.
Flagged spots
What the drawing does not make clear is marked with the reason, so you know where to look first.
A link for the site
Open the model on a phone or a laptop from a link, next to the line you are building.
05 / On site
The drawing stays in the office. The model goes with the crew.
A shared model opens in the browser of any phone. Turn it to see which way a line runs, tap a valve for its tag, hide the media you are not working on.
06 / Start
Bring your next drawing.
Sign in, upload the PDF and open the model when it is ready.
