elecworks™ for SolidWorks
Electrical design in 3D
For any SolidWorks user from the engineering consultancies to panel builders, elecworks™ allows data sharing between 3D models and the automation directly from the SolidWorks menu.
Elecworks™ marks a revolution in electrical engineering, designed for mechanical and electrical team collaboration, elecworks™ allows users to work on all areas of a digital installation feasibility in real time, whether it be the line diagram, schemes, equipment management or Input/Output tables.

Elecworks™ for SolidWorks lets you realize 3D assemblies and/or cabinets, insert 3D parts, project terminal strips... with real time consistency checking and updates. 2D native DWG files are automatically generated to complete project documentation.

Elecworks™ for SolidWorks works for any of three SolidWorks options: Standard / Professional / Premium



Features


Real time project synchronicity

Mechanical and electrical engineers can now work seamlessly on a single project without concerns over costly miscommunication or time wasting design comparison; this is achieved by providing not only interdepartmental communication tools but by automatically realizing changes made to electrical scheme’s in the SW cabinet/machine and vice versa thanks to sharing a single database.





Automatic error free cable wire routing

Point to point connections are automatically carried out, routing the wires through cables defined in the electrical scheme's. Connection routes can be fined tuned by segregating cables to reduce machine/cabinet noise, while time consuming data calculations are provided automatically, such as raceway fill factors, wire lengths...

Alert messaging

Allows engineers developing a project to instantly communicate and discuss client or design changes without having to leave the elecworks™ / SolidWorks environment dramatically reducing revision control requirements and ending costly design errors.





Millions of 3D components

The eCP portal allows the EW community to access millions of 3D components created by TraceParts S.A, so the components you place accurately reflect the manufacturers part, and let you produce the highest quality design. The use of accurate parts lets you easily carryout out component collision checks and so rule out one of the most common and most expensive design errors.



Drastically reduce turnaround times, and eliminate design errors, in a collaborative working environment.
