Tribon M3
Benefits
The new Assembly Planning application has the same user interface as the Design Manager: the tree view, the graphical view (the scenes), the navigation method etc. are identical. The performance is drastically improved.
Compatibility Constraints
The new Assembly Planning application replaces the old one, which is withdrawn from Tribon M3.

Tribon M3
Benefits
Concurrent updating of the assembly tree is now improved. Different users can now work concurrently on different parts of the assembly tree without getting problems with locking the assembly database. The performance when updating the assembly tree is improved.
Compatibility Constraints
The assembly database must be upgraded to Tribon M3 format before accessing it in Tribon M3. The upgrading is done by a conversion program. The conversion program is executed from the command prompt: > ph021 After the conversion the assembly database cannot be accessed by older Tribon applications. The conversion program also converts all weld table objects in the assembly database. The reason for this is that the storing of part and assembly names has been changed. If all weld tables will be re-calculated in M3 after the conversion of the assembly objects, the weld table objects need not be converted and can be deleted from the assembly database before running ph021. Important: The conversion utility ph021 must be run before applying Tribon M3 on an old Tribon project!
Affected Programs
Assembly Planning and all other Tribon programs where assemblies and assembly references are handled.
Tribon M3
Benefits
The user decides at the Collect time if the assembly reference should be to spool or part. The reference itself keeps this information, and in all situations where the contents of the assembly is exposed (Assembly Planning tree view, Assembly Vitesse, Assembly Parts List etc.) this is considered.
Compatibility Constraints
Before Tribon M3 all assembly references were on part level. If nothing is done to the assembly database, the references will still be to parts. However, there is a specific conversion utility, to convert part references to pipe/vent spool references and structure object references, respectively. This utility is executed from the command prompt: > ph022
Affected Programs
Assembly Planning and other Tribon programs where assemblies and assembly references are handled.

Benefits
The Assembly Parts List is generated by a Vitesse script. Thus it can easily be customised and adapted according to the shipyard's practice.
Compatibility Constraints
The resulting csv files have the same format as the csv files from the old Assembly Planning Parts List function. Formatting of the resulting Parts list is not included in the Tribon product and has to be made by other tools, e.g. MSExcel.

Benefits
All types of copying between Tribon projects are now included in the same tool, Project Copy. Assemblies can be export/imported alone, or together with the collected model parts.
Compatibility Constraints
None.
Affected Programs
Project Copy (new) Ph016 (removed)
Tribon M3
Benefits
This makes it easier to separate the Assembly Instruction Documents from other general Tribon drawings.
Compatibility Constraints
New drawings (created with Tribon M3) are stored in SB_ASSINSTR, and must be read from the new databank. Old drawings (created with Tribon M2) are stored in SB_PDB. The document reference from the assembly to the drawing includes information about the drawing databank. These drawings will remain in SB_PDB.
Affected Programs
The Vitesse script aadAssMain.py.

ph010 discontinued
Description
The assembly maintenance program ph010 is discontinued from Tribon M3. The new Assembly Planning program should be able to handle incorrect references, and the collect and decollect operations can be performed even if the model references is incorrect.
Benefits
Erroneous assembly references can be handled in the new Assembly Planning instead of using the separate maintenance program.
Compatibility constraints
None

If the Placed Volume was collected to an assembly, this assembly reference will be replaced by a reference to the new Equipment.
Benefits
In general, Equipments have a richer functionality than Placed Volumes e.g.: More attributes Module concept Support for TDM Revision handling Can be viewed in the Design Manager Connected to Pipes and Cables
Compatibility constraints
Old Placed Volumes used in assemblies must be converted to Equipment.
Affected programs
Assembly Planning Su515.
