Level UP with SOLIDWORKS Electrical – Exploring Automation, Integration & 3D Design

In this webinar we explore how easy it is to create reusable circuits and data for future use with Excel Automation. This powerful tool opens the door for automation at various levels from schematic creation, PLC I/O creation or to a fully configured and ready to go project.

Creating a schematic is easy enough. We add our symbols, our wires, and some associated information about the design.

But what if we could automate these steps? What if we could create additional detailed drawings without actually drawing anything? What if our sales team had the ability to jump-start our design without actually using the software? What if we visualize our design intent by connecting our schematic to the 3D assembly? This is all possible with the out-of-the-box features found within SOLIDWORKS Electrical and the Electrical 3D add-in for SOLIDWORKS. In this webinar we explore how easy it is to create reusable circuits and data for future use with Excel Automation. This powerful tool opens the door for automation at various levels from schematic creation, PLC I/O creation or to a fully configured and ready to go project. This is automation done right!

We will also be taking a look at how SOLIDWORKS Electrical directly integrates with PDM, allowing teams to manage their data securely and giving access at an enterprise level.

Lastly, we will take a step into the mechanical realm where the audience will be introduced to the powerful and user-friendly benefits of a fully integrated design environment. Break down the walls between groups and allow your mechanical and electrical teams to collaborate in real time.
