Digital Work Instructions

Assembly Task Manager transforms engineering design data into digital work instructions for production technicians. Engineers can prepare reusable task instructions with text, images, videos, and links. Based on the design’s parts list, Assembly Task Manager identifies required tasks and proposes a workflow order. Production engineers can then review and sequence the final work package.

On the shop floor, technicians see one task at a time with supporting media and a digital view of the harness. As technicians complete tasks, the Assembly Task Manager records progress and sends production data to the Dashboard for tracking and analysis.

More Accurate Harness Cost Estimates

The Cost Estimator now gives engineers more control over the estimate scope. Engineers can now generate cost estimates at the subproject level within complex, multi-harness designs. In addition, manufacturers that rely on internal cost systems can disable online pricing and instead use their own cost values.

Continuous Cable Protection Across Splices

The Cable Protection utility sizes and places tubing, loom, sleeving, and overbraid based on bundle diameter. Coverings can now continue across a splice as a single segment rather than becoming a separate component on each side. This more accurately represents the physical harness, improves length calculations, and eliminates extraneous device list entries.
