Zuken released E3. Series 2022, empowers design teams to deliver digital twins with functional and manufacturing details in one cutting-edge tool suite. Upgraded enhancements cover all areas from electrical design to the manufacturing process, including routing, data visualization, design rule checking, change management, and more.
The latest release includes over 50 new features, enhancements and tools to improve reliability, efficiency and productivity. Improvements in cabinet design strive to improve 3D visualization of components and wires to simplify the assembly process. Improvements to cables and harnesses are aimed at increasing design reuse and capturing additional manufacturing details. The overall usability enhancements focus on further simplifying the application to increase productivity, while improvements to active and passive design rule checking ensure design quality.
The update introduces a new 3D visualization option to view parts of the cabinet in 3D. Separate table 3D option to visualize all cabinets in addition to one project. New visualization options strive to make the manufacturing and assembly process visualization of cabinet designs effortless. Designers can design in 2D, get 3D results, and benefit from the form, fit, and function checks of 3D designs, eliminating overhead.
“The digital twin facilitates automation and control of the production and assembly process and is therefore an ideal way to address the shortage of qualified personnel among cabinet manufacturers and suppliers. Together with our partners in the Smart Cabinet Building Initiative, we are working to automate cabinet manufacturing and assembly Provides open, integrated solutions. The digital twin provides the central hub for all automated production, assembly and testing processes," explains Joachim Frank, Managing Director of E3. Zuken E3 GmbH.
