Dassault Syst?mes has introduced new SolidWorks Electrical applications. These new offerings include an innovative, system level 2D schematic design tool and a powerful 3D electrical modeling add-in to SolidWorks design application that are linked in real time. A robust solution that upholds the SolidWorks focus on ease-of-use and makes close collaboration between mechanical and electrical design groups a reality, according to Bertand Sicot, CEO, SolidWorks, Dassault Systemes, SolidWorks Electrical applications make it easy for engineers and designers to plan electrical systems and integrate those electrical aspects into the overall 3D mechanical models.

These new applications pave the way for mechanical and electrical engineering teams to collaborate during product development, streamline the design phase, and reduce product delays, resulting in more consistent and standardized designs, lower costs, and faster time-to-market. Averred Mr Sicot, "Today, companies in industrial equipment, engineering services, high-tech, medical devices, and consumer goods are developing products that include more electrical content. More than half of our SolidWorks customers require a solution that streamlines collaboration between mechanical and electrical systems engineers".

"Design professionals worldwide endeavor to create accurate designs with fewer mistakes and complications, for faster time-to-market.Towards this end, SolidWorks has introduced its new offering- SolidWorks Electrical- a design application that integrates electrical and mechanical designs to speed up complex design projects.This simple, intuitive application simplifies electrical system design with its intelligent design tools, comprehensive parts database, and allows real-time integration of 2D schematics and 3D models leading to increased collaboration and productivity", added Manoj Mehta, Country Manager, India and SAARC, SolidWorks.
