Software improves design co-operation

Cadstar E3.logic is an alternative schematic design option to Cadstar schematic for those who need to synchronise electrical and electronic design processes.

Zuken has integrated the Cadstar PCB design environment with the E3.series electrotechnical design solution, creating Cadstar E3.logic.

This new product allows users to design PCBs in Cadstar while providing full integration within the E3.series solution for synchronisation with electrical design.

Electrical and electronic engineers can work on the same design in parallel, significantly helping to reduce time to market.

For a completely harmonised product development process, Cadstar E3.logic also enables easy integration with specific MRP, ERP and PDM Systems.

Design integration at this fundamental level saves time in the design process in many ways.

From a design perspective, it allows layout co-ordination from stage one, minimising changes to the PCB later in the process.

From a library management perspective, it uses one database, with parts sets that easily integrate with databases for activities such as managing the product lifecycle and purchasing.

Cadstar E3.logic is suitable for organisations seeking opportunities to streamline activities and eliminate redundant processes.

Cadstar E3.logic is an alternative schematic design option to Cadstar schematic for those who need to synchronise electrical and electronic design processes.

It has the look and feel of other E3.series applications and is based on the same object-oriented database.

Users can open and modify existing Cadstar PCB designs, as well as create new designs from scratch within the new tool; all viewable as a standard E3 file within the E3 project structure.

Complete integration with Cadstar enables easy cross-probing and forward/backward annotation providing quick access to all design data at any stage in the design process.

By the virtue of being based on the E3.database, Cadstar E3.logic fully integrates with electrical design for cables, harnesses and panels.

Electrical designers working on other parts of the product have direct access to the PCB schematic to synchronise designs from the beginning.
