Solid Edge Electrical Routing provides easier transfer of harness topology data between ECAD/MCAD environments, which reduces design time and manufacturing readiness.
Capabilities
Digitally integrate wire harness design
Define the attributes of the wire, cable, and bundle while quickly defining a 3D path between the elements. Follow erratic continuous geometric bodies when routing wire. Assign electrical parts and connectors to preconfigured Solid Edge pieces using simple wizards. Export ready-to-use netlist files to the schematics once a design is finished so that the wires can be measured and utilised for electrical analysis.
Built-in design error checkers offer real-time feedback and alert users to design infractions through graphical symbols shown next to the wire. A tool tip provides suggestions for resolving problems.
ECAD and MCAD environments are integrated in a special way that allows for dynamic updating of harness design elements. Cross-probing highlights changes in one domain when they occur in the other. Only the Siemens software for Solid Edge Wiring and Harness Design, Capital Logic, and Harness XC may be used in connected mode.
Transferring data in a detached mode enables collaboration with industry-standard ECAD tools using common exchange file formats for component and connection data, allowing businesses without a dedicated ECAD system to still take advantage of this tool’s advantages.
Eliminate the need for costly physical prototypes by moving directly from design to manufacture with accurate wire representation for complete digital mock-ups of your design.
