“ All the Power of Electrical CAD
dedicated to
Industrial Automation ”
Thanks to IGE+XAO’s 25 years of experience,
SEE Electrical Expert is now the reference in the world of
electrical design.
Innovation
• The «Concurrent Engineering» module is a powerful solution for multiple
designers to work collaboratively on the same project.
• «3D Panel» supports designing electrical installations in 3D and offers a realistic
view of equipment and their physical positions as well as space requirements,
visualization and collision control.
• From the installation diagram, the «Synoptic» module automatically generates
all the terminal strips and cables and updates the schematics.
• The «Harness Documentation» module is an intuitive and easy-to-use tool for
designing 2D harnesses and routing the wires and cables in accordance with
the schematics.
• Multiple ways to configure machine or electrical installations and to
automatically generate a complete electrical project (schematics, terminals,
part lists, cable lists, etc.) from:
- An Excel spreadsheet
- CompoData, the IGE+XAO Group software suite to configure more complex
systems.
Integration and communication
• Several communication gateways with other software
packages :
- Mechanical CAD (Catia, SolidWorks, Creo Pro/Pro
Engineer, AutoCAD,etc.),
- PDM (SmartTeam, Windchill, TeamCenter,…),
- ERP (SAP…),
- or other business software (labeling, documentation
software, etc.) promote the integration of
SEE Electrical Expert.
• SEE ELECTRICAL EXPERT exchanges information with PLC programming software in order to automatically
generate and update Input/Output card layouts. This functionality is particularly optimised for SCHNEIDER
Electric’s Unity Pro as SEE Electrical Expert has direct access to the heart of this platform.
• Document exchanges are easy thanks to numerous graphical interfaces (PDF, DXF, DWG, JPEG, TIFF,
WMF, etc.). XLS, XML, ASCII, etc. interfaces also supports export or import of data.
• Partnerships with major electrical equipment manufacturers (ABB, Legrand, Eaton - Moeller Electric, Phoenix
Contact, Rockwell Automation - Allen Bradley, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Socomec, Wago, Weidmüller…)
provide the largest catalogues in the market.
• 100% unicode, SEE Electrical Expert V4 supports all kinds of alphabets.
An immediately operational
business package
• More than 1,000 electrical standardized symbols (IEC, IEEE,etc.)
• More than 600,000 parts available online through our web server
• Many design templates built in (motor starters with corresponding control part, drives,
PLC cards, etc.)
• Over one hundred reports templates lists configured. These can be customised
• Dozens of part list templates
• Hundreds of working methods are available (symbol tagging, wire numbering formats,
terminal strip layouts, connectors, cables, management of interconnections…)
