Electrical 2D and 3D Design

SOLIDWORKS Electrical

SOLIDWORKS Electrical CAD greatly simplifies electrical schematic creation by providing an intuitive interface that gives you faster results. Bi-directional integration in real time with SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD provides better collaboration and productivity, resulting in fewer product delays, more consistent and standardised designs.

2D Electrical Schematic Design

£2,544/ 12 month term

Further the development of embedded electrical systems with SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematics with its built in symbols, manufacturer part information and 3D component model libraries.

3D Wire & Harness Routing

£3,876/ 12 month term

Integrate electrical schematic design data with SOLIDWORKS models bidirectionally and in real time. Use routing to connect electrical components, determine optimal wire, cable and harness lengths.

£3,156/ 12 month term

SOLIDWORKS Electrical CAD Professional combines the 2D capabilities of Electrical Schematics and Electrical 3D into one powerful package. Ideal for users supporting electrical and mechanical design.

2D Schematic Solutions

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematics

SOLIDWORKS Electrical schematic design capabilities simplify development of embedded electrical systems for machines and other applications, with single-line and multi-line schematic tools for planning your electrical systems.

An integrated library database provides thousands of symbols and more than 500,000 manufactured parts for use in your design, and you can speed up development by copying and reusing common circuit segments within a project or to other projects.

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Packages

Schematics Standard

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Standard's rich symbol libraries, automated report generation, intelligent component and wire numbering and one-click terminal drawings make it faster than ever for you to create electrical schematics with all the required documentation.

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Standard is the ideal design tool for improving efficiency for individual users, for a detailed comparison of Schematic Standard and Professional see the matrix below.

Schematics Professional

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Professional expands upon the standard offering with enhanced automation and collaboration tools that allows multiple users to work simultaneously on a project. It is also enables collaborative working with any Electrical 3D license

These additions make it the ideal package for team usage, for a detailed version comparison of Schematic Standard and Professional see the matrix below.

Automate 3D Wiring from Electrical Schematics

SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D

SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D enables you to easily integrate your electrical schematic design from SOLIDWORKS Electrical to your 3D model of the machine or other product (SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D requires SOLIDWORKS CAD software).

  • Place 3D electrical components into your assembly and route wires, cables, and harnesses directly in 3D.
  • Plan accurate paths and determine exact wire, cable, and harness lengths before manufacturing to reduce scrap and cost.
  • Keep 2D schematics and 3D models synchronized in real time with automatic bi‑directional updates.

Need 2D & 3D Electrical Tools?

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Professional

The SOLIDWORKS Electrical Professional package combines the electrical schematic design capabilities of SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematics with the 3D capabilities of SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D in one convenient package.

At Gripal Automation, we design and build unique machines. Each of them is different. Therefore, it's always time consuming to generate new set of drawings and associated parts, lists, cable lists. All these documents are very useful for our panel and machine builders. They are the people who will need them the most, obviously.

And it will be a very time consuming task, but thanks to automated reporting system in SOLIDWORKS Electrical, it's just one click and it's generated for you. Reports in SOLIDWORKS Electrical is a big, very powerful tool.
