SOLIDWORKS ELECTRICALREAL-TIME INTEGRATION OF ELECTRICAL SCHEMATICS AND 3D CAD

INTEGRATEDELECTRICAL

SYSTEM DESIGN

Increasingly products have embedded electrical content, including power systems,user controls, complex wiring, and harnesses. SOLIDWORKS ® Electrical helps simplifyelectrical schematic creation with an intuitive interface for faster design of embeddedelectrical systems. Bidirectional integration in real time with SOLIDWORKS 3D CADhelps make both electrical and mechanical engineers more productive, and improvescollaboration for fewer product delays, more consistent and standardized designs,lower costs, and faster time-to-market. You can create schematic-driven harnessdesigns with powerful routing, attening, and automated documentation.



Modernize your electrical system designIn the complex world of electromechanical design, creatingan electrical system using 3D CAD can be a demanding anddaunting task. Developing design elements and dening theelectrical interconnect of wires, cables, and harnesses is oftenlaborious and error-prone.

3D CAD electrical development has typically been done with theinterchange of design data via external les and manual design.Using external les can cause electrical and mechanical designs

to become unsynchronized, resulting in design, manufacturing,and supply chain discontinuities. Current practices also do notprovide easy collaboration between design disciplines.

SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D™ technology enables fasterdevelopment of schematically dened electrical systems thatcan be readily implemented in the 3D CAD model. Real-time synchronization of the electrical schematic and 3D CADmodel enables unication of the bill of materials(BOM) between the electrical system andthe mechanical design, helping toeliminate errors fromdesign changes.

SOLIDWORKS Electrical packages provide a range of electricalschematic and 3D design capabilities:

• SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic A powerful, easy-to-usesuite of collaborative, schematic design tools that helpdrive the rapid development of embedded electrical systemsfor equipment and other products. Built-in libraries ofsymbols, manufacturer part information, and 3D componentmodels provide common, reusable materials that helpoptimize design reuse. Automated design and managementtools help streamline and simplify an array of tediousdesign tasks, from PLC and terminal block to contact cross-reference assignments.

• SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D Integrate electrical schematicdesign data with SOLIDWORKS 3D bidirectionally and inreal time. SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D enables you to placeelectrical components and use advanced SOLIDWORKSrouting technology to automatically interconnect electricaldesign elements within the 3D model. Determine optimallengths for wires, cables, and harnesses, all while maintainingdesign and BOM synchronization between electrical andmechanical designs.

• SOLIDWORKS Electrical Professional Combine the electricalschematic functionality of SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematicwith the 3D modeling capabilities of SOLIDWORKS Electrical

3D in one powerful, easy-to-use package. SOLIDWORKSElectrical Professional is ideally suited for the user thatsupports both electrical and mechanical design integrationwith 3D models.
