[New Feature Details Now Available] Supporting data utilization in the familiar .dwg format. Reducing "errors" and "losses" in electrical control design.

■Do you have such issues? Mistakes and time losses occur in paper-based inspection and parts aggregation. Inconsistent drawing styles lead to non-uniform diagrams. Data integration is impossible, making it difficult to shorten the design-to-manufacturing lead time. ■Are you spending time on operations like these? - Creating electrical diagrams with general-purpose CAD. - Manually checking relay contacts. - Manually picking parts and creating a separate parts list. - Clicking and editing IO addresses and comments one by one. The entire industry is being asked to miniaturize products and reduce wiring, leading to increased workloads. However, the labor shortage is becoming serious, increasing the burden on each employee. To respond to future modular design needs, it is necessary to improve such manual electrical control design. By implementing ACAD-DENKI 2025, it is possible to solve the challenges you face. ■Features An operating experience that extends from AutoCAD/BricsCAD. Smooth data exchange with other companies. Free from paper drawings and markers. Options for integration with manufacturing. Customization support!

Wiring/measurement processing support system that can shorten 10% to 40% of the manufacturing process time.

"Wiring PLAN 2D/3D" is a wiring and measurement support system created with know-how familiar with the manufacturing site. ■ Do you have these concerns? ■ - Short manufacturing deadlines - Difficulty in training part-time employees - Hard to divide tasks even when busy It performs wiring and measurement processing from drawings created using the electrical and control design CAD system "ACAD-DENKI" and the 3D panel drawing software "3D Panel Drawing," outputting data that can be used with various wiring processing machines. The digitization of design and manufacturing information contributes to time savings by preventing mistakes in drawings and wiring lists (FromTo lists, back diagrams, etc.) and making management easier. ■ Features ■ ▼ Efficiency can be achieved through the digitization of the manufacturing process. - Wiring information can be checked from circuit diagrams and implementation diagrams before manufacturing. - Preparation of wires, mark tubes, equipment labels, etc., can be done before the completion of the enclosure. ▼ Prevents dependency on individuals and eliminates variations in quality. - Task division is possible with wiring lists (FromTo lists, back diagram lists, etc.). - A work method based on FromTo information prevents variations in quality. * For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Improvements were sought on the theme of "efficiency and cost reduction in the processes from design to manufacturing," so we introduced the Zuken Alphatech / panel wiring support system!

We are introducing the purpose of implementation (background of implementation), the reasons for choosing our system, and the effects of implementation. Originally, our main business was the design and manufacturing of control panels for our parent company, Nikko Co., Ltd. However, with the aim of future business expansion, we began manufacturing distribution boards and control panels for other companies' products. Nevertheless, since we were latecomers in the market for other companies' products, competitiveness became an issue. The management requested improvements with the theme of "efficiency and cost reduction in the processes from design to manufacturing," and the design group spent time gathering information while going through trial and error. ▼ Reasons for choosing Zuken Alphatech / Panel Wiring Support System - As a manufacturer (development/sales/support) of electrical control CAD, they had many years of experience and achievements. - Through our own verification before implementation, we identified the potential for a system that could achieve "efficiency from design to manufacturing." - A consistent support system was prepared from design to manufacturing operations, and they provided accurate support from the pre-implementation stage. Please check the actual implementation effects through the related links below. For product details, please refer to the catalog.

Successful early cultivation of the groundwork for realizing DX through efforts to improve the efficiency of electrical design utilizing data.

Implementing Company: Aimu Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Business Description: Design/Manufacturing/Test Operation of Control Devices and Distribution Boards ■Challenges Before Implementation Operations and management were paper-based without providing attribute information to drawings. Standardization of design was not achieved. There was a complete reliance on customization, leading to a lack of scalability. ■Reasons for Introducing ACAD-DENKI Ability to use drawing functions of AutoCAD/BricsCAD, providing high flexibility and ease of implementation on-site. Data utilization through the provision of attribute information is possible. A wide range of built-in standard functions allows for operation without relying on customization. ■Specific Initiatives Improved search efficiency through the addition of properties. Organized parts master, with manual input limited to order elements only. Integration with parts procurement sheets and production management systems. Collaboration with manufacturing for equipment label data, etc. ■Effects As a result of these initiatives, a reduction of 14 to 20 hours of labor per order was achieved. Manual tasks were eliminated, leading to improved accuracy, standardization of work, and increased efficiency. From this experience, a foundation for utilizing data over manual work has been cultivated within the company for the past ten years, enabling smooth progress towards digital transformation (DX) without resistance.
