Zuken’s E³.3DTransformer improves the collaboration process between ECAD and MCAD teams and helps engineers meet quality, reliability, and performance requirements.

The support of native files from leading MCAD platforms and standard industry formats eliminates a time-consuming back and forth between the different domains.

The tool offers an easy-to-use UI with a quick setup time and a lightweight and user-friendly application for transforming 3D MCAD data into a comprehensive E/E topology model.

KEY CAPABILITIES​

E³.3DTransformer provides a single tool that supports a wide range of file formats. Its simplification and healing functions for extracted harness topology provide the missing link between ECAD and MCAD. Identifying and removing obsolete vertices or incoherent joints cuts project time and reduces costs by streamlining communication between MCAD and electrical.

• FASTER: Up to 75% faster than other MCAD plugins and processes
• REDUCTION: Reduction in Bi-directional repairs between MCAD and ECAD teams
• RULES: Configurable rules-based component
• SUPPORT: Support native and standard industry 3D data formats​

SIMPLE STEP BY STEP APPROACH

• Company-specific rules and profiles are set up to identify bundles and components seamlessly.
• Built-in consistency checks ensure connectivity and layout are verified before releasing designs to the ECAD team.
• The model extraction process transforms the data into standard cabling data formats.
• The data is now ready for the ECAD team to create Formboard drawings based on accurate routing data.
