Trimble Field Points Reviews & Product Details

I like that the app will reload the last file that you worked on. That speeds things up in the field. It's also very precise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cloud integration could use some polish. I dislike having to convert the TFL files with the new version. It needs a worksharing feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It helps to generate the core and hanger Trimble points. Easy to locate the point while working on site by just putting the drawing into Trimble station. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It always takes by default level 0 for reference while generating hanger Trimble for levels above level 01. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about this software is we can identify the hanger and sleeve place point before the installation of pipe. This is a totally automatic process we can put the coordinate of hanger up point and a machine can locate this point and throw a paint ball on this point for recognition.

The software charges should be less because of its limited use of pre constant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its user interface and ease of use. It provides the exact locations of the points whether it is hanger insertion or sleeve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I tried providing the service tags for the element I created Trimble point but it is not possible using Trimble Field Point. Though it is not a big concern however this is something I faced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Trimble field point is basically field layout points which is used by mechanical contractors to create points for placement of hangers of MEP service. Through Trimble field points the process is very fast because we can place hangers and sleeves in very less time. Trimble field points is a robotic process so it's a very less time-consuming process.

Sometimes it gives a issue while providing an attribute. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is an easy method to generate the Trimble point for a hanger. Moreover, it is easy to generate CSV and TFL files using it, which can further be used on site to get the exact location of penetration for hanger/sleeve on SLAB of a building. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a lot of scope for advancement in it. As the markers points have to be placed manually while generating points in CAD, which is quite a time-consuming process if the number of hangers is high. Along with that, if one has to delete a hanger due to any purposes (for instance, coordination), then the entire process has to be repeated to maintain the sequence of tags, CSV & TFL FILES.

Having multiple options to export the points is convenient. Some projects require a more complicated process to get more info, while others just need simple files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When exporting a simple CSV file from a Revit model, the option to have layers for points is not available, which would save hours of loading time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
