The goal of Smart Cabinet Building is to offer integrated solutions for today's challenges in the field of control cabinet engineering and manufacturing.
The initiative is comprised of a multi-company cooperation that includes Weidmüller, Komax, Armbruster, and Zuken. Zuken's E3.series has been selected to provide the engineering backbone for the recently launched Smart Cabinet Building Initiative.
The base for networking today's disconnected process steps is the "digital twin," a complete digital description of the electrical panel and its components created in Zuken's E3.series. Partner in the Smart Cabinet Building Initiative Its object-oriented architecture provides the user with a unified design representation across multiple views delivering consistent design information to help eliminate errors, improve quality, and reduce design time. "Through the combination of powerful electrical engineering capabilities and cabinet layout functionality, we are providing a solution that combines advanced electrical and mechanical engineering capabilities for the specific needs of electrical engineers."Į3.series delivers a concurrent electrical engineering environment supporting advanced requirements for electrical planning and documentation, cabinet and wire harness design, and manufacturing outputs. "With the digitization and networking of engineering and manufacturing processes in the manufacturing industry, electrical and fluid engineering is emerging from a specialist activity to become part of an end-to-end engineering workflow," says Joachim Frank, Managing Director of Zuken E3 GmbH.
