Seamless Panel Building
From schematics to assembly and maintenance!
Create or import schematics with ease!
- design schematics faster by using macors and variants directly in the WSCAD software or
- import components, terminals, and connection lists from your customer’s schematics and match them against the WSCAD’s free data base wscaduniverse.com
Design cabinet layouts
- save frequently used partial cabinet layouts and plan pages as macros with variables and load them into the control cabinet design at the push of a button – e.g. cabinet types with different infeeds
- place all components precise to scale with an accuracy of 1/10 millimeter. The WSCAD database – wscaduniverse.com – contains 2.1 million parts that can be imported, edited or matched against your current components.
- Calculate wire lenghts and route connections in 3D automatically, display and calulate the fill ratio of cable ducts (red, yellow, green)
- use 3D views for photorealistic representation and collision checking based on actual component sizes
Immediately use all design data for manufacturing – at no additional cost
- Print all required labels and QR codes
- Use design data for the manufacturing of wires or wire sets via service providers or on your own NC machines (leading manufacturers)
- Easily transfer manufacturing data for cabinet doors, enclosures, and mounting plates from WSCAD software to leading manufacturer’s drilling, milling, or laser centers.
- Create complete and standards-compliant documentation in the form of PDFs with cross-references and bookmarks at the touch of a button – also multi-lingual!
Wiring and maintenance with modern Augmented Reality Apps
- Wire connection by connection with the Cabinet AR App (free of charge) using comfortable filter functions by device, wire color or cross-sections.
- For service and maintenance engineers: simply scan the QR code of the components with the Cabinet AR App (free of charge) and get immediate access to all schematics including equipment id, 3D views of the components, complete product data and manufacturer’s original data sheets – the right date, accessible anywhere.
Consistent control cabinet design
From the circuit diagram to assembly and maintenance
Creating or reading in circuit diagrams
With WSCAD ELECTRIX, you can either create the circuit diagram directly or import component, terminal and connection lists based on the customer’s existing circuit diagram and re-plan the circuit diagram.
Quick and easy cabinet assembly
With the electrical CAD software from WSCAD, you can save frequently used subcircuits and plan pages as macros with variables and load them into your enclosure layout at the touch of a button, e.g. for enclosure types with different feeds. All components are placed to scale with an accuracy of 1/10 millimetre. The free article database by WSCAD – wscaduniverse.com – contains over 2.1 million article data that can be automatically matched and stored in your plans with all available information. Furthermore, WSCAD offers 3D control views for photo-realistic representation and collision checking based on actual component sizes. In addition, connections can be automatically routed, wire lengths calculated and the filling level of cable ducts checked.
Use the created data immediately for production – without additional costs
With WSCAD ELECTRIX you can easily print all necessary labels, wire markings and QR codes. The generated data can be used for the production of wires or wire sets via service providers or on NC machines. In addition, it is possible to transfer the production data for cabinet doors, enclosures and mounting plates directly from the WSCAD software to drilling, milling or laser centres of renowned manufacturers. With just one click, you can create the complete, standard-compliant documentation as a PDF file with cross-references and bookmarks – even in several languages.
Wiring and maintenance with modern apps
With the innovative WSCAD Cabinet AR app, connections can be wired easily and conveniently. Filter functions that sort by devices, wire colours or cross-sections provide a quick overview. For service and maintenance, the Cabinet AR App offers an easy way to scan the QR code the components and get instant access to all plans (including BMK, 3D views of the components, complete item data and original data sheets of the manufacturers). This item information is available everywhere and always up-to-date.
