Features
The assembly module drastically reduces the time it takes to create cabinets.
Assuring data consistency between scheme drawings and cabinet layouts. Changes made to scheme numbering will automatically be adopted by cabinet components. Components removed from a cabinet that exist in a scheme, or scheme elements removed from a cabinet are graphically displayed as being “orphaned”.
3D models are automatically created from manufacturers dimension data. Multiple components can be placed in the correct cabinet location at the same time, and the cabinet viwed in 3D to carryout quick and easy clash detection checks.
• Semi automatic creation of 3D assembly/layout drawings.
• 3D panel views. No need to learn 3D. Placement of components will be on the correct view and elevation.
• Multiple placement, with auto spacing of cabinet components
• Major manufacturers enclosure footprint drawings ( Hoffman, Himel, Sarel, Schneider electric, Eldon Electric, Rittal)
• Automatic dimensioning
• Automatic detection and reporting of inconsistencies between schematics and layout drawings
• Component surface area/volume analysis to determine cubicle size
3D Cabinets
Eliminate the need for engineers to spend hours designing the cabinet wiring diagrams.
From to lists, ensure that the installation engineers can easily realise the cabling defined by the design engineers. The software will automatically determine the shortest possible route between two components to reduce design times and cut your costs. Elimination of errors, and reduced design times will greatly reduce design costs. This module considers the true cable type, and allows for segregation of cables, and will automatically report on trunking fill factors, packing density, number of wires per trunking route etc.
• Intelligent 3D trunking/raceways
• Export wire numbering, wire lengths, to wire labelling/cutting machines.
• Automatic true point to point cabling of components in the cabinet, based on the shortest possible route.
• Manual/automatic segregation of cables
• Open and closed circuit connections
• Specific cabinet component numbering
• Automatic calculation of trunking fill factors
• No need to learn 3D
• Support all numbering standards including KKS
• DIN Rails
• User configurable secondary numbering system for trunking routes to increase the quality of the reports
• Trunking specific reports
• From To lists specify true length, colour, gauge, trunking routes used to connect components...
