Irricad Pro — !!install!!
The versatility of IRRICAD Pro is evident in the wide range of systems and projects it can handle. It's not limited to one specific irrigation method but is a comprehensive tool for various applications.
The layout process begins by importing a visual basemap. This can be a scale CAD file, an aerial drone orthomosaic, or direct GPS survey points. Users establish boundaries, mark water sources (such as wells or pump stations), and generate a 3D elevation mesh of the property. Phase 2: System Layout irricad pro
Developed by irrigation engineers at Lincoln Agritech and distributed worldwide across more than 90 countries, it combines traditional CAD drafting tools with highly advanced hydraulic computation engines. Unlike generic drafting programs, it functions as an all-in-one platform that automatically sizes pipes, performs complex multi-variant hydraulic evaluations, and generates precise, itemized bills of materials (BOM) directly from the drawing board. The versatility of IRRICAD Pro is evident in
Whether designing simple branched lateral lines or complex looped mainline networks, the software utilizes standard hydraulic equations (such as Hazen-Williams or Darcy-Weisbach) to analyze flow distribution. It simulates system behavior to ensure uniform water application across the entire design. Step-by-Step Workflow in IRRICAD Pro This can be a scale CAD file, an
Instead of guessing how many sprinklers you can put on a valve, IRRICAD Pro calculates it automatically. The software suggests valve locations based on flow capacities and pressure availability. It even helps with "sectoring"—grouping sprinklers that operate simultaneously without exceeding pump capacity.
Saving time at the office translates to saving money on the job site. IRRICAD Pro generates dynamic reports including:
