SUMMARY OF POSITIONGMM Pfaudler US Inc. is a leading supplier of highly engineered, critical equipment and process systems for energy, chemical and industrial markets. GMM Pfaudler’s Systems Group designs and constructs process systems including Wiped Film Evaporator (WFE) Systems, Reactor Systems, Column Systems and Temperature Control Units (TCU’s).The 3D CAD Designer will be in the Systems Group at GMM Pfaudler in Rochester, NY. The 3D CAD Designer models the process system (structural steel, equipment, piping, instruments) using 3D CAD and creates all fabrication drawings and bills of materials required for construction of the systems.ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIESEssential duties include those listed below. Other duties may be assigned as necessary.Designer will be responsible for the design and 3D modeling of Systems projects involving process equipment, piping and instruments. These process systems are typically skid mounted or modular and can vary in size from small pallet sized modules to multi-skid, multi-level structures with stair towers. The 3D Designer work includes of the following:Work with the Process/Project Engineers (PE) to create 2D Piping & Instrument Diagrams (P&IDs) and 2D Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs).Utilize the equipment specification sheets supplied by the PE and vendors to model the equipment in 3D (or use GMM Pfaudler’s existing library of user shapes or download from vendor websites).Utilize the Instrument Specification Sheets supplied from the PE and vendors to model the instruments in 3D (or use GMM Pfaudler’s existing library of user shapes or download from vendor websites).Develop a 3D model of a structural steel support skid/structure using Autodesk Advance Steel on which the equipment is mounted along with all interconnecting process and utility piping.Develop the 3D model of the entire system utilizing the above and modeling in 3D all the process and utility piping using Autodesk Plant 3D.From the model, the Designer creates the 2D steel layout drawings and 2D orthographic and isometric piping drawings used by the fabrication shops for construction of the systems.From the model, the Designer exports the various bills of materials to Excel files to be used by the PE for procurement of all system materials and used by the fabrication shops for construction of the systems.During fabrication of the system, the Designer works with the PE and the shop to trouble shoot any issues with the fabrication and to make any changes in the design required by the customer or shop.Designer reviews the fabricated system and creates as as-built model and drawings.SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIESNone.QUALIFICATIONSEligible person should have a minimum of 5 years of relevant work experience and be proficient in 3D modeling using AutoCAD and Plant 3D.
