Electrical Engineering Software aids wiring design and layout.
October 20, 2009 -
Integrated with SolidWorks Premium Routing, Eģ.WireWorks facilitates design of wiring, harnesses, cable assemblies, and cabinet and panel layout. Modular program stores circuit diagrams, layouts, and nail board drawings in one multi-view project file, keeping all drawings and BOM automatically in sync. Netlist, cable, and component data can be passed between Eģ.WireWorks and SolidWorks, while routed segment and wire length information can be returned from SolidWorks to Eģ.WireWorks.
WESTFORD, MA. - September 2nd, 2009 - Zuken today announced the availability of Eģ.WireWorks, Zuken's new design solution for wiring, harnesses, cable assemblies, and panel layouts. Integrated with SolidWorks Premium Routing, Eģ.WireWorks enables electrical engineers to design, layout and route wiring in cabinets and control panels. Eģ.WireWorks is available exclusively through SolidWorks' Value Added Resellers.
"Eģ.WireWorks fills a much needed gap in wiring design," said Tony Cadwell, Manager of Zuken's Eģ Indirect Sales. "Its electrically intelligent database and online DRC prevent users from making errors, saving time and improving quality. Its integration with SolidWorks completes a premier end-to-end solution for cabinet and panel design."
Eģ.WireWorks' unique design approach stores circuit diagrams, cabinet and panel layouts, and nail board drawings in one multi-view project file, automatically syncing all drawings and the BOM. When you make a change in one view (e.g., schematic), it automatically changes in the other views (e.g., cable, harness, panel, and BOM). Its electrically intelligent online DRC automatically prevents errors such as inappropriate wire sizes in terminals, short circuits between signal types, and wires that are not within the min/max specified in the library part.
"This is an ideal complement to our offering." Said Paul Boswell, Product Manager from SolidWorks. "With Eģ.WireWorks, our users can now leverage a complete solution for the design of wiring, harnesses, cable assemblies, cabinets and panels."
Eģ.WireWorks' close integration with SolidWorks Premium Routing passes netlist (from-to connections), cable information (color, AWG), and component data (part name, pins, and associativity) between Eģ.WireWorks and SolidWorks. It also supports the generation of manufacturing documentation by returning routed segment and wire length information from SolidWorks to Eģ.WireWorks. Additionally, bidirectional highlighting enables engineers to collaborate on design issues. For even greater productivity gains, the integration also ties into SolidWorks Enterprise PDM for data management, workflow, and lifecycle control.
Eģ.WireWorks is a Windows-based, modular, scalable and intuitive system for the design of wiring, harnesses, cables assemblies, and cabinet and panel layout. Its unique design approach stores circuit diagrams, cabinet and panel layouts, and nail board drawings in one multi-view project file. This keeps all drawings and the BOM automatically in sync, reducing errors, increasing quality and enabling engineering changes to be completed much more efficiently. Its close integration with SolidWorks Premium Routing passes netlist, cable, and component data between Eģ.WireWorks and SolidWorks. It also returns routed segment and wire length information from SolidWorks to Eģ.WireWorks for manufacturing documentation. SolidWorks Enterprise PDM integration enables data management, workflow, and lifecycle control.
