Discrete PLM: Switchgear, Motors and Electrical
One engineering bill of materials, controlled change and the CAD that belongs to it.

Engineer it once, then build, check and ship it, whether it is a panel, a pump, a motor or a reel of cable.
For makers of counted, assembled products. A controlled product structure feeds routings, work orders and inspection, and the technical ratings of each product family are captured as typed attributes you can search and quote from.
What is inside
12 capabilities, each one a real screen.
Engineering and manufacturing BOM
Multi-level structures with baselines and where-used. A released structure becomes the manufacturing BOM.
Routings and work centres
Operations, set-up and run times, and a Gantt of the shop floor by work centre.
Production and work orders
Per-step work orders with reporting, scrap and variance.
Configure-to-order
A sales line carries its chosen configuration into the production order, for products sold in variants such as pumps and panels.
Switchgear attributes
Short-circuit rating in kA, IP rating, form of separation, busbar material and arrangement, and the standard it complies with.
Motor attributes
Power, speed, frame and efficiency class (IE) as searchable fields.
Cable and wire attributes
Wires, cables and busbars as a product class, with typed attributes for the family.
Hydraulic and pneumatic parts
Pumps, cylinders and valves as a class, with their ratings.
Control plans and inspection
Inspection lots with sampling, control charts and corrective action, tied to the part.
Change management
Engineering change orders with a redline of what changed.
CAD vault
STEP import and a SolidWorks add-in that syncs models and properties.
Subcontracting and maintenance
Job-work out and in, and preventive maintenance by date or meter.
Included in
- The ratings listed are fields that ship in the product. Standards such as IEC 61439 are held as editable specification templates, not as certified test procedures.
Part of the recommended set for: Discrete Manufacturing.
Not included
- Wire-drawing, stranding or extrusion line specifics, and cut-length or drum management for cable.
- A motor-winding design or type-test module.
- Electrical CAD authoring.
- Direct machine connectivity.
