Spotlight

Smarter components for AutoCAD Plant 3D. Axelerator provides 14,000+ manufacturer-specific, Python-driven components (and continuously growing), generated directly from real manufacturer data and designed to integrate seamlessly with Plant 3D’s spec-driven database.

Every component is fully spec-aware and includes all critical metadata required for accurate models, reliable isometrics, BOMs, and downstream deliverables, ensuring consistency from design through documentation.

By removing assumptions, manual fixes, and rework, Axelerator helps teams work faster, produce cleaner drawings, reduce errors, and maintain full confidence in their Plant 3D workflow.

Features

Everything you need to move faster without compromising quality.

Engineering teams face the same obstacles over and over

Working with large process and plant systems means dealing with complex projects, tight deadlines, and too many manual steps that slow everything down.

Time-consuming revisions

Manual model updates and constant revisions eat up valuable engineering time

Broken data flow

Disconnected systems between P&ID, 3D models, and documentation

Component data errors

Mistakes in material lists and component specifications cause delays

These recurring issues slow delivery, increase project risk, and put unnecessary pressure on engineering teams and project managers.

Deliver faster with confidence and accuracy

Axelerator transforms how your team works by reducing manual effort, eliminating errors, and ensuring every design is correct from the start.

Fewer errors & late changes

Catch issues early with accurate component data and automated validation

Faster project delivery

Streamlined workflows mean projects move from design to delivery faster

Reliable data & traceability

Complete documentation and full traceability from spec to model

Design with confidence. Every component is correct, consistent, and ready for delivery, reducing manual work for your entire engineering team.

How Axelerator Delivers

Out of the box ready

Compatible with existing Plant 3D projects, no changes required.

Find & replace

Axelerator comes with a built in find and replace function that lets you find or replace any inserted component in your drawings.

Isometric symbols

Our models come with the correct isometric symbols, ensuring your isometric drawings are accurate and consistent.

Parametric components

Parametric components that adapt instead of multiple models.

A standard .step piping component averages 20Mb. Using Axelerator's smart models, components average just 9Kb and your projects stays fast, stable and crash-free.

Request components

Our component library is dynamic and continuously evolving. If your team needs a component that isn’t available yet, you can request it and we’ll add it to the library.

Team-ready

Shared library so the whole team works with the same data.

Continuous updates

New components and improvements added regularly.

Large component library

Components ready to use with comprehensive metadata such as weight, material distributor etc.

Save time

No more hunting for STEP files, managing folders, or juggling pipe spec versions.

Axelerator removes information silos and keeps component management to a minimum, so your teams can focus on engineering, not file handling. We do the hard work for you.

Quick access to Datasheets

Axelerator links each component to its real-world model, giving you instant access to datasheets and technical information, just a click away.
