SolidWorks in electrical equipment Design


Green Design using SolidWorks - Solutions for the Electrical & Electronics Industry

SolidWorks has been the de facto standard in Mechanical Product designs for Electrical and Electronics Engineers primarily on account of ease of use and enabling new technologies. By pushing the envelope of electro-mechanical collaboration, SolidWorks as delivered in all aspects of Fit, Form and Functional requirements as applied to Electronics/ Electrical product design and development.

SolidWorks - Differentiator in Electrical/ Electronic Product Design

Be it Design of Relays, Switches, Contactors, Solenoids, Electric Motors, Circuit Breakers, Photo Copiers,Cell Phones, Printers, Plotters or any electro-mechanical device, SolidWorks fulfills the requirements for complete product design starting from concept to product launch.  Electrical and Electronics Engineers enjoy a rich set of tools inside SolidWorks, complemented by Simulation tools such as SolidWorks Simulations and SolidWorks Flow Simulation to quickly validate design concepts for higher efficiency, lower cost and enhanced reliability.  Salient features that enable Design Engineers leverage on next generation Technology from SolidWorks for Electrical Applications include:
  • Correctness and Completeness of Drawings according to ASME / ISO Standards using DimXpert
  • Integrated Tolerance Stack Up calculations using SigmundWorks
  • Configurable Designs using SolidWorks Configuration Management with Microsoft Excel Integration
  • Integrated Design Validation  using SolidWorks Simulation for increased tool life
  • Design Automation using Macros, VBA, Visual Basic as well as VC ++
  • Life calculations for lasting value with a choice of material selection for dies and moulds
