Pro/ENGINEER Cabling Design |
|
The process for designing electrical harnesses can be very complex–and problematic. Typically, engineers must create a physical prototype, then manually determine a route for the cabling, which is usually the first route that works, and not necessarily the optimal one.
Key Benefits: - Improve time-to-market and reduce costs through virtual prototyping and automated routing of cables
- Achieve concurrent engineering via associativity; routed cables automatically update as the product design evolves
- Quickly determine the best cabling route possible rather than wasting significant time with a trial-and-error approach
- Generate documentation automatically, for easier product maintenance and minimized servicing costs
- Facilitate collaboration between manufacturers and designers by making all documentation available to all teams
Features & Specifications:
Electronically Document the Entire Design Process - Capture and document schematic information and manufacturing instructions
- Implement a versatile solution for 2D and 3D designers, improving communication from schematic to product
- Automatically flatten 3D harnesses for manufacturing
- Automate the Creation of Fully Defined 3D Harnesses
Automate the Creation of Fully Defined 3D Harnesses - Automate harness routing by referencing 2D logical information
- Digitally define complete 3D harnesses with connectors and components
- Implement engineering changes to the assembly, confident knowing that Pro/ENGINEER associatively will automatically update the cabling routing.
Automate the Flattening of 3D Harnesses for Manufacturing - Quickly flatten 3D harnesses to create accurate 2D harness documentation with intelligent dimension, BOMs, and pinouts
- Create fully associative, customizable lists and tables containing all information necessary to create the harness
- Detail the flat harness drawing with parametric notes, dimensions, symbols, and tables
