In this article, we will show you how to use SolidWorks Electrical 2013 SP10 X86 X64 for 3D wire and cable modeling, a feature that allows you to create realistic and accurate representations of your electrical wiring and harnesses in 3D space. You will learn how to:
Create a 3D sketch of your wire or cable route
Assign electrical components and properties to your route
Generate a 3D model of your wire or cable with automatic routing and flattening
Edit and modify your wire or cable model as needed
Export your wire or cable model to other formats or applications
By following these steps, you will be able to create 3D wire and cable models that are consistent with your 2D schematic design, and that can be used for documentation, analysis, or manufacturing purposes.
Create a 3D Sketch of Your Wire or Cable Route
The first step to create a 3D wire or cable model is to create a 3D sketch of your wire or cable route. A 3D sketch is a sketch that can be drawn in any plane or direction in 3D space. You can use the 3D Sketch tool in SolidWorks Electrical 2013 SP10 X86 X64 to create a 3D sketch of your wire or cable route.
To create a 3D sketch of your wire or cable route:
Open a new or existing project in SolidWorks Electrical 2013 SP10 X86 X64.
Select the 3D Sketch tool from the Sketch tab on the CommandManager.
Draw the lines and arcs that represent your wire or cable route. You can use the sketch relations and dimensions to constrain your sketch as needed.
Exit the sketch when you are done.
Assign Electrical Components and Properties to Your Route
The next step to create a 3D wire or cable model is to assign electrical components and properties to your route. Electrical components are the parts that connect your wires or cables, such as connectors, terminals, splices, etc. Electrical properties are the attributes that define your wires or cables, such as gauge, color, type, etc.
To assign electrical components and properties to your route:
Select the Route tool from the Electrical tab on the CommandManager.
Select the 3D sketch that you created in the previous step.
In the PropertyManager, select the electrical components that you want to use for your route. You can drag and drop them from the Design Library or browse them from the Component Library.
In the PropertyManager, select the electrical properties that you want to apply to your route. You can use the default values or customize them as needed.
Click OK to create the route.
Generate a 3D Model of Your Wire or Cable with Automatic Routing and Flattening
The final step to create a 3D wire or cable model is to generate a 3D model of your wire or cable with automatic routing and flattening. Automatic routing is the process of creating a 3D model of your wire or cable based on the route sketch and the electrical components and properties that you assigned. Flattening is the process of creating a 2D representation of your wire or cable model that shows its length and shape in a flat plane.
To generate a 3D model of your wire or cable with automatic routing and flattening:
Select the Auto Route tool from the Electrical tab on the CommandManager.
Select the route that you created in the previous step.
