VBO Piping Pro is designed for high-speed MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) modeling. Key functionalities include: Edge-to-Pipe Conversion
Whether you are a seasoned engineer or a drafter working on residential or industrial projects, this extension turns simple lines into sophisticated 3D pipe models. What is VBO Piping Pro?
Instead of drawing circles and extruding, use the tool. Vbo Piping Pro V2.1.7 Sketchup Plugin
: Reduces piping modeling time by up to 80% compared to manual follow-me tool methods.

Vbo Piping Pro is a premium extension for Trimble SketchUp developed by VietDesign. It allows users to convert standard SketchUp edges and lines into detailed, 3D piping networks instantly. Version 2.1.7 introduces enhanced stability, better fitting generation, and optimized performance for handling large-scale industrial models without slowing down your workstation. Core Features and Capabilities 1. 1-Click Pipe Generation
For project management and cost estimation, the ability to generate a Bill of Materials is crucial. Vbo Piping Pro V2.1.7 can produce a BOM for all pipes and fittings in a model. This list typically includes counts, types, and sizes of components, providing valuable data for procurement and construction planning. VBO Piping Pro is designed for high-speed MEP
Connection rules & trims
Routing helpers & path editing
Does your project use a non-standard valve or a custom bend radius? Use the Fitting Builder (available only in Pro V2.1.7 and later). Import a 3D model (SKP, STL, or OBJ) of your custom part, define its connection points (face normals), and save it to the user library. The plugin will treat it like any native fitting, including auto-orientation during pipe routing.
: Pairs with the VBO_Schedule plugin to generate instant material schedules and cost estimates. Comparison of Features Across VBO Variations Instead of drawing circles and extruding, use the tool
