Software upgrade eases hydraulic design

Hydraulic and electrical designs are integrated through a combined design platform that has the flexibility to customise views to select only essential electrical design information.

Zuken has released the 2008 version of the dedicated fluid design module of the E3.series environment.

The new version makes the design of hydraulics and pneumatics a more cohesive part of the design process.

Hydraulics design engineers benefit from the best of both the individual and collective approaches to design.

Hydraulic and electrical designs are integrated through a combined design platform that has the flexibility to customise views to select only essential electrical design information, eliminating the unnecessary burden of irrelevant electrical complexity within the design view.

In addition, both hydraulics and electrical designers can now work within E3.series simultaneously, enabling them to work more collaboratively while improving quality and reducing development cycles.

Now fully integrated with electrical systems, the customised platform provides hydraulics engineers with a dedicated design environment complete with the ability to define their own symbols, such as tubes and hoses.

Hydraulic and pneumatic sheets are on display in the project tree and likewise, specific components appear in the components trees.

Customised views allow all users to select the level of detail of either the hydraulic or electrical data in the design view they are working on.

This is powered by the E3.enterprise edition, which enables concurrent design in a multiuser environment.

In the 2008 version, many of the advancements also have a direct advantage for the E3.fluid user.

It has improved functionality for quickly managing product variants and options and the ability to embed any file for improved project management.
