Platform Collaboration
Synchronize all project designs in real time and bi-directionally
• Collaborative environment
• Multi-platform use (Schematic, SOLIDWORKS, PDM
Professional
• Synchronizes key information (e.g., Bill of Material and design
data) between design disciplines and users
Multi-user Environment
Environment allows for concurrent design.
• Real-time collaboration
• Multiple users can work in the same project at one time.
• Multiple users can work in the software and share data
• Mechanical and Electrical users can collaborate on
designs concurrently (with the use of SOLIDWORKS
Electrical 3D)
SOLIDWORKS PDM Connector
Manage electrical and mechanical data in one system based on
proven SOLIDWORKS PDM capabilities and an enhanced PDM
interface. Automate publishing of schematic data, drawings and
reports for archival purposes and revision control.
Electrical Component Library
Access to extensive integrated libraries of manufacturer parts.
• Create new parts easily
• Customize and adapt parts
• Import wizards and tools
• Web-based portal for access the libraries of parts, symbols,
2D footprints, DWG's
• Add external links to PDF data sheets
Hyperlinks
Links available for inconnectivity - Component instances - origin/
destination arrows - links between component and 3D models -
BOMs to schematics and manufacturer parts - links translate into
functional PDF - additional data sheets added to project are
included in project files.

Electrical Design in 3D CAD
Ease of use with SOLIDWORKS Assemblies.
• Place, insert, or remove 3D CAD models for electrical
components in a project
• Fully control paths for routing wires, harness, and cables to
follow
• Automatic routing due to schematics controlled connectivity
• Associate existing 3D models to electrical componentry
• Allow for planning and documentation of route paths and
associated data (such as length of wires, cables, and
harnesses within the system)
• Facilitate the verification of proper fit, planning of all wire,
cable and harness routes, and calculation of all wire lengths
prior to any assembly
3D Electrical Cabinet Design
Utilize existing CAD designs as well as SOLIDWORKS automation
tools to create comprehensive electrical 3D cabinet designs and
documentation. This cohesive environment is synchronized in real
time without the use of external files and can utilize existing CAD
designs.
Single-line Schematic
(AKA Line Diagram) Create complex embedded electrical systems
utilizing simple pictorial representations of electrical components
and interconnectors. Functionality is perfect for documenting
Ethernet connectivity, positions of devices on equipment layouts,
and more.
Multi-line Schematics
Create schematics with an easy-to-use interface optimized for
simplification of repetitive tasks.
Mixed Schematics
Combine both single-line and multi-line drawings on the same page
while maintaining associativity.
2D Cabinet Creation
Generate 2D panel representations from an electrical
schematic, with 2D dimensioned outlines of electrical
components.
