ECAD DCX Implementation Case Study <Takashima Engineering Co., Ltd.>
We will introduce examples of business efficiency improvements from design to procurement and manufacturing, as well as adaptations to changes during times of material shortages!
At Takashima Engineering Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of control panels/distribution boards, we will introduce the challenges faced until now and the points and effects that could be resolved through the introduction of the electrical design CAD 'ECAD DCX.' ■ Background of Introduction - The drawing methods were dependent on individuals due to individual design rules, leading to inconsistencies in the drawings. - When arranging hole-processing cabinets with Nitto Kohki's Cabista, it was necessary to create hole processing drawings again for ordering. - Since the arrangement of parts and processing data was done manually, it led to extra work and input errors or incorrect orders. ■ Reasons for Adopting ECAD DCX - The collaboration with Nitto Kohki's Cabista, which is integrated into the ECAD series, supported the introduction of ECAD DCX to improve collaboration and operational efficiency from design to subsequent processes. ■ Effects After Introduction - The construction and standardization of the parts master allowed for the sharing and accumulation of know-how, turning it into an asset. - Collaboration with Nitto Kohki's Cabista reduced man-hours and shortened the time until ordering. - Since parts lists and processing data can be output from the drawings, manual input work has been reduced, significantly decreasing the chances of incorrect orders. - Even when substituting with different parts due to material shortages, changes to related areas are automatically reflected in bulk, reducing the effort and mistakes in corrections.
basic information
The dedicated CAD solution for electrical design, 'ECAD DCX', is a specialized CAD solution that enhances productivity from electrical design to collaboration with purchasing and manufacturing systems. **Features of ECAD DCX Standard** - Real-time information updates and error detection significantly reduce the time required for drawing checks. - Automatic generation of reports such as bill of materials, terminal block tables, and wiring tables from drawing data improves productivity. - During drawing creation, necessary components can be searched and assigned from the cloud-based component library database 'ECAD Library' (support contract required), and selected components can be registered in the master for shared use. - Design data connects to purchasing and manufacturing systems, achieving reduced lead times and labor-saving efficiencies. *Note: ECAD DCX is available in Premium, Standard, and Basic editions based on the features included.* *For more details, please refer to the documentation.

WIRE CAM DX Introduction Case Study <Meito Panel Co., Ltd.> Built a system that allows beginners to perform wiring work in a short period of time, even without prior experience in electrical CAD!
Since its establishment in 1980, Meito Panel Co., Ltd., a "specialized manufacturer of panel production" that assembles control panels, distribution boards, and cubicles, has introduced 'WIRE CAM DX' to focus on digitalizing panel assembly through various innovations without sticking to traditional methods. Here are the effects of the introduction. ■ Effects After Implementation - Significantly reduced the man-hours required for data creation necessary for manufacturing by easily converting wiring design results into Excel data. - Directly imported wire number data into the mark tube printer for printing processing. - Successfully reduced material waste by about 30-40% by producing wires for doors and other components in precise sizes. - Outsourced wires and ducts for increased efficiency. - Increased the number of wiring personnel. - Shortened wiring work from 80 hours to about 60 hours. - Unified wiring routes, improving product quality. ■ Product Features 'WIRE CAM DX' is simulation software that can create production information for panels from design drawings. - In addition to CAD data, various files can be used for wiring design. - Tasks can be transitioned to non-technical personnel, allowing for increased production capacity through the establishment of a division of labor.

WIRE CAM DX Introduction Case Study <Asahi Corporation> Introducing a case where an environment was established within one month of implementation, allowing anyone to perform wiring work on control panels!
At Asahi Co., Ltd., which operates its business with two pillars: the design and manufacturing of control panels and the design and manufacturing of medical devices (ISO 13485 certified), there was a sense of crisis regarding reliance on veteran workers for assembly and wiring tasks, as well as the intensifying competition among control panel manufacturers. As a result, they introduced 'WIRE CAM DX'. Here, we will introduce the effects of this implementation. ■ Background of Implementation - A sense of crisis regarding the production system's reliance on veteran workers for assembly and wiring tasks and the intensifying competition among control panel manufacturers. - Promotion of standardization of tasks to improve the work efficiency of younger and novice workers. ■ Effects After Implementation - Over 90% of orders are processed using data created with WIRE CAM DX. - Manufacturing of custom items has become possible for anyone. - The assembly and wiring workforce in the manufacturing department has been increased by 10 new employees. - A 30% reduction in wire usage. - Easier inventory management as wire usage can be understood before wiring. - A significant reduction in inquiries from manufacturing to design. ■ Product Features 'WIRE CAM DX' is a simulation software that can create production information for panels from design drawings. - In addition to CAD data, various files can be used for wiring design. - Tasks can be transitioned to non-technical personnel, allowing for increased production capacity through the establishment of a division of labor.
