1. Upload a PDF drawing
Use the example isometric or add one of your own piping drawings.
Piping drawing scanner
Check every result
Scan piping drawings into weld logs and parts lists
without typing every line by hand
Upload a PDF isometric. Piping.Tools finds the welds, materials, and lengths and puts them into clear lists beside the drawing. You check the result before using or exporting it.
- Finds welds, materials, and lengths
- Review before issue
- Excel and PDF exports

Fabrication tracking
From the engineering office to the fabrication shop floor
Piping.Tools supports fabrication management and pipe fabrication tracking alongside weld logging. Keep recorded spool, welder, and NDE context close to the drawings your engineers issue.
Fabrication tracking
Track spool progress from cut list to ship
Record cut, fit, weld, NDE, paint, and shipping status against the drawing register your engineers already use.

Fabrication management
One source of truth for the shop
Drawings, weld procedures, welder qualifications, material certs, and NDE reports can be linked to the same job for review.

Pipe fabrication tracking
Welds, welders, and WPS at a glance
Keep weld identifiers, welder qualifications, WPS references, and final handover details linked in a reviewable record.

Definition
What is a weld log?
A weld log is a document used in piping engineering to track the history of every weld, including who made it, which procedure and material were used, and the inspection result.
How it works
Upload, check, and use the result
2. Review what the scan found
The scan lists the welds, materials, and lengths beside the original drawing. Correct anything before saving it.
3. Use the checked list
Build the weld log or parts list, mark progress, and export Excel or PDF when you are ready.
| Feature | Separate spreadsheets | Scan with Piping.Tools |
|---|---|---|
| Weld list | Repeated manual entry | Found on the drawing |
| Parts list | Re-keyed from drawing | Read from the material table |
| Drawing marks | Separate PDF file | Kept on the source PDF |
| Drawing issue | Pack built by hand | Drawings selected from one list |
| Progress updates | Copies drift over time | One current list |
| Sharing the result | Reformatted each time | Download Excel or PDF |
Example drawing
Try scanning an example drawing
This made-up drawing contains no customer data. Choose Scan to fill in example welds and parts, then compare them with the PDF. You can also turn on Weld Markup and add a marker to the drawing. Anything you do here disappears when you leave.
Preparing the example
The example drawing loads when you reach this section.
What you can do
Keep the job moving
Scan the drawing once, check the result, and use the same information for the weld log, parts list, progress updates, and final files.
Scan the drawing into a list
Upload a PDF isometric and let Piping.Tools find the welds, materials, and lengths for you to check.
Build the weld log
Start with the welds found on the drawing, then add the welder, procedure, material, and inspection details.
Mark progress on the drawing
See which welds are complete, which are waiting for inspection, and which are still open.
Export a clear record
Download the checked weld log or parts list as Excel or PDF when it is ready to share.
Built for real work
See exactly what the scan gives you
Open the example drawing or try a small set of your own. Check the welds, materials, and lengths found by the scan before deciding if it suits your team.
The drawing stays beside the list
Compare each weld, material, and length with the source PDF while you review it.
Nothing is accepted blindly
Edit anything the scan gets wrong. Your team decides what is saved and shared.
Simple files when you are done
Download checked weld logs and parts lists as Excel or PDF.
For company use
Test the scanner on your own drawings
Start with a small set of typical drawings. Agree what the scan should find, who will check it, how files are protected, and what the service will cost.
See the company setupAn agreed result
Agree which lists and files you need, and who must check them.
Security review
Confirm who can see the drawings and how the files are protected.

Common Questions
Weld tracking software gives fabrication and QA teams one place to record, review, and follow each weld. Piping.Tools keeps the drawing, weld details, status, and exports together so people spend less time copying the same information between sheets.
Piping.Tools scans supported piping-isometric PDFs for the title block, weld locations, material table, and pipe lengths. The result appears beside the drawing so a qualified person can check and correct it before use.
Yes. You can create a free account to scan and work on your own drawings. For company use, we first scan a small drawing set so you can check the result, support needed, and price.
Yes. You can export weld logs and related project records to Excel and PDF. Check every export against the source drawing and project requirements before issuing it.
Piping.Tools accepts PDF piping isometrics. You can download checked records as Excel or PDF. Company accounts can also prepare drawing issues and final project files.
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Sign-in, company and project separation, role permissions, and activity records protect drawings and files.
