SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2022 Highlights
SOLIDWORKS Electrical is a separately purchased product.
- Faster 3D electrical routing: Accelerate electrical design creation and design changes.
- Significantly accelerate the routing of 3D wires, cables, and harnesses in your machine or product.
- Try more design ideas during the design cycle with faster route creation.
- Improved performance with large electrical projects: Save time when working with large electrical projects.
- Speed up commonly used operations such as copy, paste, delete, and undo.
- Make design changes from schematic to 3D faster.
- Create large electrical projects more quickly.
- Increased performance in multiuser electrical design environments: Increase productivity with better collaboration among concurrent users.
- Enable faster operations for multiuser groups doing concurrent electrical design.
- Make data sharing and collaboration between multiple users easier.
- Enhancement to the Electrical Content Portal (ECP): Create electrical designs faster with streamlined sourcing of electrical content.
- ECP is now included in the Task Pane of SOLIDWORKS Electrical, making it easier to access.
- Search for electrical content directly from inside SOLIDWORKS Electrical.
- Improved navigation in electrical reports: Improve design quality with easy navigation of your electrical project documentation.
- Enable multiple hyperlinks per report cell.
- Link electrical reports to component datasheets.
- Enhanced harness flattening documentation: Improve product quality through more complete documentation and quicker access to component reference documents.
- Select the main segments of a harness route in 3D to guide the flattening process.
- Simplify the organization of harness documentation by targeting the trunk line.
- Improved documentation of harness and cable designs with shared electrical connectors: Enjoy greater flexibility
in documenting electrical harness and cable designs.- Include external connectors that are shared but outside of the electrical route.
- Include external connector information in documentation tables such as circuit summary tables and connector tables.
- Add block views of external connectors on harness board drawings.
- Support for backshells: Improve design quality through a more complete 3D representation of the overall design.
- Use both straight and angled backshells in your electrical route design.
- Create the route and then add, rotate, or change backshells as needed.
- Enhanced 2D documentation of backshells in electrical designs: Enjoy more complete and more flexible documentation of electrical designs.
- Include straight or angled backshells in harness board drawings.
- Include views of angled backshells in flattened harness views.
- Refinements to bend radius control: Improve design quality through a more realistic 3D representation of electrical routes.
- Avoid bend radius errors with automated routing of wire, cable, and harnesses in 3D.
- Create more robust 3D routing when using limited electrical guide path sketches.
- Links in BOMs: In BOMs, you can manage links in a merged cell, for example, when several components use the same manufacturer part.
- Add Data Files in the Export PDF: If you attach PDF files to the project as data files, you can export them in the exported PDF file.
- Testing the Query in the Expert Mode: When you edit report configurations in Expert mode, Test fully query includes the sort conditions and filters.
- Displaying ERP Data in the Manufacturer Parts Manager: If you connect the ERP data, you can display it in the Manufacturer Parts Manager.
- Including Data Sheets in Exported PDFs: You can include the data sheets associated with the manufacturer parts in exported PDF files.
- Displaying Break Condition in Report Manager: In the Report Manager, you can display a Break condition column that shows the field in which you have created the break condition.
- User Interface Redesign: The user interface is enhanced to be more ergonomic and user friendly.
- Attribute in Origin – Destination Arrows: In the Origin – Destination arrows feature, the attribute #P_CONNECTED_0 lets you display the mark of the components connected through the arrows.
- Displaying All the Wire Numbers on the Middle of the Line: When you number the wires, you can select a specific mode allowing you to display the wire number on the middle of the line segment.
- Connection Point Creation Enhancements: Connection points (CPoints) let you connect wires or cables with connectors.
