Elecworks™ lets you enter data project data from the preliminary
research stages.
A huge part of the project planning can be achieved without having to do any scheme
diagrams, this is thanks to the processing tools such as the Line Diagram and Components
Management features.
Elecworks™ has been developed as an electrical CAD system for use
by design engineering professionals. Scheme diagrams employ intelligent wiring and
internationally recognized symbols standards that provides seamless continuity of
project data.
There is no learning curve, using
elecworks™ is straightforward
with self explanatory no jargon commands. Smart tools provide context sensitive
help and commands that let you produce small, medium, and large projects with multiple
engineers collaborating together.
