Engineers continue to look for innovations in design software whether it is improved accuracy, higher capability, more graphical use interface or better technical support. The one constant, however, is that it must be user-friendly. Many programs today are trying their best to make it easier for companies to plan and execute their ideas for specific applications. No longer are these engineers bound by using just pencil and paper or even antiquated CAD Software as in the past. Today, specific parts can be placed where they are needed, labeled how they want and can even provide you with a 360⁰ model of your design before it goes onto the assembly phase. With cloud-based technology, usually there is no installation needed, updates are automatic and the ability to grab past designs and collaborate is quick and easy.
When choosing the proper design software, WAGO’s smartDESIGNER online program checks all of the boxes. It runs exclusively on a cloud server, ensuring that users have the most up-to-date version of their program and without a need for updates. When working with WAGO’s website, smartDESIGNER allows you to easily find the products that fit your needs and specifications. Users can add their own part numbers and customize a library to sort commonly used components. Custom labels can also be added, directly interfacing our smartSCRIPT software and sent directly to a WAGO smartPRINTER to ensure they will fit your product and give your project a clean and sleek look.
After you have compiled your components and are ready to start designing, smartDESIGNER helps you create your assembly exactly the way you want it. Not only that, but this software also checks your design for safety and functional build errors. Once the design is complete, smartDESIGNER allows projects to be exported in numerous CAD formats, ready to be inserted into other project designs. The program generates 2D and 3D models in formats such as STEP, IGES, DXF, DWG, Inventor, NX and SolidWorks Visual Basic files. smartDESIGNER also provides the ability to interface with various CAE design programs such as EPLAN and WSCAD.
Companies often use third parties to complete the building process of their design. Meaning they must their design, detail their drawings to the assembler and hope that it is put together to their exact specifications. With smartDESIGNER, eliminate the third party by sending your project directly to WAGO to build. There is peace of mind knowing that your project will be built just the way you want it by the company that not only designed the software used, but the components in your design.
smartDESIGNER is accessible anywhere and best of all, it is free to use. Go to https://bit.ly/3ua7NB4 and sign up or you can simply launch the program without even having to log in.
