TransDesign Complete Solution for Topology-led Cable and Wire Harness Design

TRANSDESIGN TransDesign, a fully integrated harness design solution, is a complete electrical distribution design environment. Developed in cooperation with leading automotive engineers, TransDesign covers the design of an entire electrical system, from concept to manufacturing support. It enables manufacturers to design electrical harness systems and packaging details concurrently, using a mechanical design (3D) environment. TransDesign eliminates the labor- and time-intensive manual verification previously required during the engineering process, and allows engineers to share graphical data...

PRODUCT OVERVIEW TransCable is a wire and net-based editor, which manages electrical signal connectivity between physical components. Logical nets may be automatically converted to wires and splices. Wires may be interactively routed between pins of physical components. Splices are automatically created when multiple wires are connected together. Multiple wires may also be routed to a common pin, which create a multitermination. Cables types such as twisted, flat, or shielded may be defined. Shielded cable symbols have termination pins to support grounding of shields with a wire connection. Cables...

TransDesign Saving Time, Streamlining Communication With TransDesign you can develop a fully characterized design from logical interconnection to a complete set of wiring harness definitions. The resulting design captures every cost-contributing element of the harnesses with data that can directly populate a harness-manufacturing bill of materials. The benefits include, significant time savings in the design process, and the ability to make the data readily available throughout your organization. Integrated Tools for Electrical System Design The comprehensive TransDesign solution includes: •...

using the original physical schematic instead of the logical schematic. Cosmetic changes and annotations on the base physical schematic are preserved. Manufacturable Harness Depiction TransDesign now features a link with the leading manufacturing tool available in the market: Capital Manufacturing. Using the Capital tools in combination with TransDesign, users can develop harnesses using the leading software in the industry. A truly concept to manufacturing flow is available now including the complete definition of all of the items needed in the manufacturing of harness systems as well as the...
