|||
| Link to SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD | |||
|
SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematics Professional (with the purchase of SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D) links the schematic to 3D SOLIDWORKS assemblies. This facilitates verification of proper fit of components; planning for the paths and space needs of all wire, cable, and harness routes; and calculation of all wire lengths prior to any assembly. |
|||
| Common ECAD and MCAD Database | |||
|
SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematics Professional is bidirectionally linked with the 3D design (with the purchase of SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D) which allows multiuser collaboration in real time between ECAD and MCAD engineers. Sharing a common database ensures consistency and facilitates the creation of a complete BOM. |
|||
| PLC Tools | |||
|
The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) management tools automate many PLC wiring design tasks, along with the ability to import PLC data and labels. |
|||
| Dynamic Connector Tools | |||
|

|||
| Real-time Collaboration | |||
|
Synchronized, bi-directional environment enables multiple users to work on the same schematics project simultaneously for easier project collaboration. |
|||
| Real-time Synchronization | |||
|
SOLIDWORKS Electrical synchronizes all project design data in real time, bi-directionally in a multi-user collaborative environment between 2D schematics and the 3D model. This synchronization unifies key information (such as Bill of Materials (BOM) and design data) between design disciplines and users. |
|||
| Deferred Update Mode | |||
|
Enhances schematic performance by minimizing network traffic and deferring real-time project updates. This technology provides a performance boost for large projects and users who work remotely. |
|||
