  • Precise Wire Harnessing: Determine and document accurate 3D route and wire lengths before making a single physical prototype, saving time and money and ultimately speeding up the time to production.
  • Design Intent: SOLIDWORKS Electrical is able to capture design intent, preempting edits tied to fields such as relations, parameters, and model behavior. This functionality is key to maintaining the integrity of your overall design as you modify dimensions or attributes throughout the design process. 

Business Benefit
