E³.WireWorks: Electrical and Fluid Engineering for SolidWorks Users

Available from your SolidWorks Reseller
E³.WireWorks is a Windows-based, modular, scalable and easy-to-learn system for engineering design of wiring, harnesses, cable assemblies, control panel, hydraulics and pneumatics. Together with SolidWorks® Premium Routing tools, E³.WireWorks is a complete solution for the design engineer from design concept through physical realization and manufacturing output. E³.WireWorks is designed to work out-of-the-box with SolidWorks Premium Routing and SolidWorks PDM Enterprise.
The latest release of E³.WireWorks, E³.WireWorks Unified now uses native E³.series files and provides users with access to modules that were previously only available in E³.series. E³.WireWorks users join Zuken’s E³.series global license community of more than 25,000.

Essential Functions
-
Multi-view project file
Projects contain all aspects of your design (schematics, cable plans, control panels, formboards and fluid detail). All dynamically linked; a change in one is automatically reflected in all.
-
Electrically-aware part library
Intelligent part libraries help drive the design with automatic part selection and real-time checks to prevent errors.
-
Real-time design rule checks (DRC)
ECAD engine designed by EEs for EEs with built in real-time DRCs. Prevent errors rather than find them later.
-
SolidWorks® integration
Collaborative design for harness and fluid engineering with SolidWorks® Routing and P&ID functionality.
-
SolidWorks® Enterprise PDM Integration - view movie
Data and bill of material management with Enterprise PDM.
-
Part of Zuken’s E³.series software suite
Stable and proven technology, used by thousands globally.
- Can be used in combination with SolidWorks or standalone.
Available Configurations
E³.WireWorks is available in three configurations to suit all your electrical and fluid design needs, with two additional options to address automation and manufacturing.
Which configuration do i need?
Office
- Suitable if your projects only include schematic layouts and don’t require diagrams and documentation of physical control panels or wire harnesses.
- Office contains: Schematic
Professional
- Suitable if your projects contain physical panel / cabinet layout diagrams.
- Professional contains: Schematic and Panel
Additional option for Professional:
-
Autoroute: If you want to auto-route the conductors in your panel and calculate the total amount of wiring, then you will require the optional ‘Autoroute module’ within E³.panel.
Premium
- Suitable if your projects contain un-scaled cable / wire harness diagrams.
- Premium contains: Schematic, Cable and Panel
Additional options for Premium:
-
Autoroute: If you want to auto-route the conductors in your panel and calculate the total amount of wiring, then you will require the optional ‘Autoroute module’ within E³.panel.
-
Formboard: If you need to create 1-1 scaled wire harness drawings, then you will require the optional ‘Formboard module'.
