Introducing a case where transitioning from general-purpose CAD has improved drawing quality and productivity, while also reducing stress for the staff!

We will introduce the issues that were challenges at Nichei Electric Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of control panels/distribution boards, and the points and effects that were resolved through the introduction of the CAD for control design and distribution board design, 'ECAD DCX.' ■ Background of Introduction - The previous general-purpose CAD required transcription to 100 files for 100 pages, resulting in a significant amount of labor beyond design. - Although an add-on software for electrical design for general-purpose CAD was introduced, it was difficult for us to register the vast amount of component data on our own, leading to operational challenges. - Picking components from paper drawings took a full day of work and resulted in many mistakes. ■ Reasons for Adopting ECAD DCX - After hearing from other companies at a seminar that they had achieved efficiency in panel manufacturing using ECAD, we decided to introduce ECAD DCX to reduce design labor, prevent mistakes, and improve overall efficiency through production collaboration. ■ Effects After Introduction - We can now perform transcription, modifications, PDF output, and printing all at once, significantly reducing labor outside of design. - The automatic creation of various forms has greatly reduced the labor and mistakes associated with component procurement. - With user-oriented support services for implementation, we smoothly began using the system, resulting in improved drawing quality and productivity, as well as reduced stress for the staff involved.

We will introduce examples of business efficiency improvements from design to procurement and manufacturing, as well as adaptations to changes during times of material shortages!

At Takashima Engineering Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of control panels and power distribution panels, we will introduce the challenges faced until now and the points and effects that were resolved through the introduction of the CAD for control design and power distribution panel design, 'ECAD DCX.' ■ Background of Introduction - The drawing methods were dependent on individuals due to individual design rules, resulting in inconsistencies in the drawings. - When arranging hole-processing cabinets with Nitto Kohki's Cabista, it was necessary to create hole processing drawings again for ordering. - Since parts procurement and processing data were manually entered, there were issues with labor and input errors or incorrect orders. ■ Reasons for Adopting ECAD DCX - The collaboration with Nitto Kohki's Cabista, which is equipped in the ECAD series, supported the introduction of ECAD DCX to improve collaboration and operational efficiency from design to subsequent processes. ■ Effects After Introduction - By constructing and standardizing a parts master, know-how has been shared, accumulated, and turned into an asset. - Collaboration with Nitto Kohki's Cabista has reduced man-hours and shortened the time to order. - Since parts lists and processing data can be output from the drawings, manual input labor has been reduced, significantly minimizing incorrect orders. - Even when substituting with different parts due to material shortages, changes to related areas are automatically reflected in bulk, reducing the effort and mistakes in corrections.
