ECAD-related solutions

At Asahi Co., Ltd., which operates its business with two pillars: the design and manufacturing of control panels, and the design and manufacturing of medical devices (ISO 13485 certified), there was a sense of crisis due to reliance on veteran workers for the assembly and wiring of control panels and the intensifying competition among control panel manufacturers. As a result, they introduced 'WIRE CAM DX'. Here, we will introduce its effects. ■ Background of Introduction - A sense of crisis regarding the production system's reliance on veteran workers for assembly and wiring, along with the intensifying competition among control panel manufacturers. - Promotion of standardization of work to improve the efficiency of younger and novice workers. ■ Effects After Introduction - Over 90% of orders are processed using data created with WIRE CAM DX. - Enables anyone to manufacture custom-made products. - Increased the number of assembly and wiring workers in the manufacturing department by 10. - Reduced wire usage by 30%. - Easier inventory management as wire usage can be understood before wiring. - Significant reduction in inquiries from manufacturing to design. ■ Product Features 'WIRE CAM DX' is simulation software that can create production information for panels from design drawings. - Wiring design can be done using various files in addition to CAD data. - Work can be transitioned to non-technical personnel, enabling an increase in production volume through the establishment of a division of labor system.

We will introduce the issues faced by Nakazaku Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of industrial machinery, and the points and effects that were resolved through the introduction of the dedicated electrical design CAD solution 'ECAD DCX.' ■ Background of Introduction - In 2020, amid the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, management instructed each department to "set important mid-term initiatives for their own department and establish goals and action plans." - There were significant differences in work and technical proficiency among members, leading to a concentration of work on a few individuals and long working hours becoming a problem. ■ Reasons for Adopting ECAD DCX - ECAD DCX was adopted as a new electrical CAD because it has abundant design support functions and its operability is similar to the previously used ECAD dio, allowing for a smooth startup. ■ Effects After Introduction - Automatic checks for missing components and consistency between drawings eliminated inquiries from control panel manufacturers, significantly reducing overtime hours. - Using the cabinet collaboration function completely eliminated mistakes, making cabinet arrangements much easier. - By standardizing the parts master and operational rules, designers could focus on creating drawings, and maintenance of the parts master was also smoothly managed.
