Embedded fabrication inside the construction industry’s most prevalent CAD program, AutoCAD MEP.
EastCoast is currently signing up leading edge contractors as AutoCAD MEP Fabrication beta sites. Beta testing isn’t for every shop. However, for contractors looking for a better way to fabricate it’s a great opportunity to influence what could be a significant new tool in your software toolset.   AutoCAD MEP Fabrication, the Autodesk and EastCoast jointly developed embedded fabrication software solution will be released later this summer. We are anxious for your input in how this tool works within your operations. If you are or will be using AutoCAD MEP 2009 anytime this year it would be a great advantage to you to participate in this version one beta test. Contact Dave Quigley, MEP Product Manager for more information on EastCoast’s Beta Program.  Read about our jointly developed fabrication integration at Autodesk.com.

EC Software and Fabrication Solutions for Sheet Metal and Piping Contractors
When turn around time is critical, top fabricators and detailers are using the fastest mechanical drawing package in the business - EC CAD 2008. EastCoast has been building industry hardened 3D sheet metal and piping fabrication software and plasma cutting systems for the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Industry for over 25 years. EastCoast offers sheet metal and piping fabrication shops the tools needed to quickly and accurately draw and fabricate 3D HVAC designs.

EastCoast also offers a line of Autodesk-based product solutions called EC Fabrication for AutoCAD MEP 2008, EC Sheet Metal for AutoCAD MEP 2008 and EC Piping for AutoCAD MEP 2008.  All three solutions incorporate the powerful AutoCAD MEP drawing engine to design and fabricate sheet metal and piping systems for speed, design agility and project coordination.  Once the project is approved and fully coordinated fabrication detail is applied using experienced sheet metal and piping resources directly involved in the fabrication of the systems.
