(openPR) - 28 July 2009, Wuerzburg/Germany. HARcad, the harness development and engineering software, provides a new functionality which helps to avoid design errors and reduces costs and weight of harness systems.
Intedis offers a new simulation module for the HARcad users. This module brings simulation functionality into the circuit diagram-based design process. The resulting main benefit is the optimized dimensioning of wires, as the algorithm is simulating the current capacity of wires based on a thermal behavior model. This way designers immediately get feedback if the selected wire cross section area fits perfect or if the wire is over- or underdimensioned.
HARcad supports the complex harness development processes from conceptual design to calculation and change process. The intuitive handling and the adjustment of the functionalities according to engineers’ requirements guarantee a short training period and fulfil the demand of time and cost efficiency.
HARcad was developed by Intedis GmbH & Co. KG with headquarter in Wuerzburg, engineering partner and consulter supporting the leading automotive companies in all aspects of automotive electric/electronic architecture for several years. Due to the experience in the field of wiring harness development and the background of a leading wiring harness manufacturer, Intedis exactly knows the requirements harness engineers are challenged with in their daily work.
