AutoCAD Electrical 2012
AutoCAD® Electrical software is AutoCAD® software for electrical controls designers. Purpose-built to create and modify electrical control systems, AutoCAD Electrical includes all the functionality of AutoCAD plus a complete set of electrical CAD features. Comprehensive symbol libraries and tools for automating electrical engineering tasks help to save hours of effort, so you can spend more time innovating.
Familiar issues?
- Creating electrical controls designs with generic software is limiting your productivity
- Designers are unable to find and re-use designs easily
- Manually adding electrical controls information into 2D or 3D mechanical design is tedious
AutoCAD Electrical contains features and benefits that enable users to increase their design efficiency and eliminate many of the errors caused by repetitive manual tasks. Maintaining consistency throughout the design process allows manufacturers to create products in shortened design cycles with less overall expense.
