Validate designs using integrated electrical behavior and automation

Simulate to design faster
Use simulation to check and validate designs as they are created. Eliminate errors faster and earlier in the design process.

Design with confidence
Our streamlined, yet full-featured tool lets you design with confidence. Enjoy customizable drawing styles and built-in intelligent libraries for components, symbols and simulation models. Integrate with your MCAD systems for 3D harness routing and wire length back-annotation.

Automate reports and documentation
Automatically generate reports for wires, connectors and devices used in your design. Diagram device and wire index tables. Add full sheet and zone referencing to drawings, and update them automatically as you make changes.

Monitor metrics for early correction
Use analysis to catch issues early in the design process where they are least time consuming and expensive to correct.

Prevent errors and save time
Eliminate mundane tasks and take advantage of automation to cross-reference multi-sheet parts and wires. The intuitive and productive circuit design and harness development environment make adoption simple.

Improve revenue
Easily deploy the tool into existing processes and environments. Typically, return on investment (ROI) is achieved in less than 12 months.

Easily scale when needed
Leverage the Capital Essentials suite, which is designed for rapid deployment and easy installation, to achieve dramatic ROI using powerful functionality. Use design and harness tools individually or deploy them together. Allow wiring design data to flow seamlessly into the associated harness designs to reduce effort and minimize the risk of errors. If needed, users can employ seamless upgrades to the full Capital software suite.

Intuitive

Full electrical design authoring is made easy via an intuitive user interface and electrically intelligent symbols. Built-in electrical intelligence automates many design tasks. For example, splices are automatically created when wires are joined and cross-references are automatically created when wires cross between sheets.

Furthermore, all entities have context sensitive menus giving the user the modification options appropriate for each different type of component. These and many other facilities make circuit editing a quick and simple.

Productive

Capital Wiring Designer Essentials automatically generates reports for wires, connectors and devices used in the design. Diagram index-tables, device and wire index-tables with full sheet and zone referencing can be added to the drawings and these are updated automatically as changes are made.

Capital Wiring Designer Essentials interfaces with most major MCAD systems allowing accurate wire length information to be defined by the MCAD system.

Capital Wiring Designer Essentials is simple to use, ships with a detailed video tutorial and requires minimal training allowing companies to become productive quickly. Experienced support staff and an active user community forum provide immediate support and answers to new and experienced users alike.

Powerful

Built-in simulation helps designers to check and validate the design, as it is created, helping to find errors fast and early in the design phase. Simulation shows voltages and currents, highlighting problem areas such as short circuits and validating wire and fuse sizing.

Designs can be split into multiple sheets with automated cross-referencing and hyperlinks, helping users navigate the design. Diagram appearance – line weights, fonts, colors, symbols, borders, etc is fully customizable.

Libraries are provided for components, symbols and analysis models and these can be shared and exchanged with other companies.

Scalable

Capital Wiring Designer Essentials shares a common software architecture with the Capital electrical and wire harness design suite. While Captial Essentials is optimized for rapid deployment and a small IT footprint, Capital is designed for larger enterprises.

A Capital Wiring Designer Essentials installation upgrades readily to Capital with riskfree native data migration. Capital encompasses solutions for physical architecture optimization, systems design, systems integration and wiring design, electrical simulation and analysis, harness engineering, harness costing and documentation generation. Moreover, Capital Essentials and Capital are able to share common component, symbol and simulation model libraries.
