Piping modeling software
The creator of PIPE-FLO Professional design software announces its first online video available free at its website. The short video gives an overview of the main features of the software program and walks viewers through the creation of a piping system. It’s intended to make the Quickstart training material available to anyone on-demand, 24-hours a day. It’s also accessible to people who have streaming media blocks, because the video is an embedded Adobe® Flash® Player video.
