Top 3 Benefits of SOLIDWORKS Electrical

Save Time

SOLIDWORKS Electrical cuts out the time wasted on tedious documentation and redesign tasks via its intelligent design tools and design reuse capabilities, allowing product developers to save time and focus on product design.

Reduce Human Error

With parametric and associative designs, SOLIDWORKS Electrical helps engineers reduce human error throughout the design and documentation process while keeping specifications and electrical systems fully aligned, thus negating the need for timely revisions and ECOs.

Drive Innovation

The time saved, improved design accuracy, and access to top-of-the-line design tools from SOLIDWORKS Electrical empower your engineers to focus on product development and driving innovation.

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Capabilities

SOLIDWORKS Electrical is a robust product suite combining 2D schematic design tools with 3D CAD collaboration plus PCB integration and cloud connectivity, equipping you with the tools you need to tackle the challenges of the modern electrical landscape.

Intelligent Schematics

Parametric design: Eliminate human error and enjoy 100% time savings on tasks like circuit reuse, wire numbering, and part swapping thanks to the parametric functionality of SOLIDWORKS.
Rapid system development: Automate mundane and repetitive tasks, leverage symbol / manufacturer part libraries, and generate reports in seconds, while keeping your schematic layouts consistent across the project.

Accurate Design, 3D Visualization

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.

Integrate your 2D and 3D design

Business Benefit

Virtual Twin: Create a digital twin of your product including everything from clear, polished documentation, to photo-quality visualizations for marketing materials. SOLIDWORKS Electrical helps you tell the story of your product–from design to production.
Reduced Physical Prototyping: With the range of benefits detailed above from intelligent schematics to precise wire harnessing and 3D visualization, you can validate design and part fit without ever making a single physical prototype, saving you and your company time, money, and physical resources.
