What is SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic?

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic makes creating schematics smoother and faster with its easily-learned, purpose-built technology. SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic fully automates rote, error-prone, time-consuming tasks to create a more efficient workflow and free up engineers to focus on designing rather than auditing spreadsheets and documentation.

Key Benefits of SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic

Save time

Accelerated Product Development

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic accelerates the time to market for all products by automating the tedious and repetitive tasks often associated with schematic design, like documentation updates, thus eliminating the chance of human error.

Multi-User Collaboration

Multi-User Collaboration

Not only does SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic offer shared libraries across projects and concurrent collaboration between electrical and mechanical teams, it also helps ensure consistency across all team documents thanks to its intelligent documentation capabilities. 

Saved Time

Saved Time

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic is able to cut traditional documentation time by 50% or more through its automation of time-consuming and error-prone document audits. This frees up time and energy that can be better spent on driving innovation through design.

The Power of Parametric Design with SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic

If you’re using non-parametric design tools for your schematic design, you are likely all too familiar with the sheer amount of time and energy wasted on the brute-force efforts tied to using general-purpose tools. SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic is a parametric design tool that transforms your design process through intelligent automation and purpose-built features.

Circuit Reuse

Circuit Reuse

With non-parametric tools, even if you copy and paste components or circuits, you still need to go in and manually update the labeling on each of these copy and pasted elements. Then, once that process is complete you still have to go back and manually update all the related documentation to include your copy and pasted element with its related parts.

With parametric electrical design software like SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic, all of those tedious steps are taken care of the second you paste your desired circuit or part into your schematic. This results in 100% time savings when reusing components in your design as the labeling and numbering of your new parts are automatically updated unilaterally within your project in both the schematic itself and in all related documentation.

Wire Numbering

Wire Numbering

Because wire numbering often incorporates page/row information, a simple change like inserting a page or adding a wire can force a complete rework of your wire numbers, both in the documentation and the schematic itself. On average, electrical engineers are spending over 50% of their documentation time in reports and auditing.

However, with dedicated electrical schematic design software this time waste is eliminated. SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic quickly updates all wire numbers–in both the wiring diagram and the documentation–as you design. Gone are the days of manually verifying that you caught every instance of a numbering change. Let SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic take that worry away.

Part Replacement

Part Replacement

While you can swap a part easily enough in the design itself regardless of your design tool, the difficulty comes in when you then try to update all of your documentation to reflect this design change. Plus, in status-quo, non-parametric schematic design tools, there’s no way to automatically determine whether or not you caught every instance. 

Enter SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic. Our tool not only provides instantaneous updates to all documentation as soon as a design change is made, but it also automatically verifies that no instances of the replaced part were missed. With SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic, the chance for human error is eliminated by nullifying the need for manual label/numbering updates and monotonous documentation audits.
