Harness

Arcadia Harness is modern wire harness design software used to document physical wire harnesses and convert schematic data into fully defined 2D layouts. Arcadia Harness streamlines the harness design process, reducing manual effort and ensuring compliance with engineering requirements.

Product Overview

Using Arcadia Harness

Arcadia Harness wire harness design software provides a powerful and intuitive interface designed for ease of use, minimal learning time and seamless integration into your enterprise tools and processes. Access an integrated parts database to automatically select terminals, seals, and sleeves, then easily generate accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs) and wire lists.

Quality Control with an Intelligent Component Database

Quickly and accurately choose wire sizes, optimize terminal selections, and ensure seamless compatibility. With its predefined component database, Arcadia offers a comprehensive collection of readily available components.

Save Hours of Work in Harness Design

Cadonix wire harness design software eliminates the necessity of manually defining connectivity lists from the ground up, providing a streamlined approach to harness creation by enabling users to generate harnesses directly from the schematic. Such seamless integration significantly reduces redundant steps and conserves valuable time throughout the design

100% Accuracy with Bi-Directional Synchronization

Keep schematics and harness designs perfectly aligned with just a click of a button. The traffic light system swiftly highlights discrepancies, empowering you to reduce error correction time and significantly lower rework costs.

Achieve Faster Turnaround with Automated Design Workflow

Reduce manual effort, ensure high-quality, compliant designs every time with Arcadia’s built-in component database. Automatically add cavity parts, terminals, and coverings while adhering to IPC-620 standards.

Minimize Rework by  Creating Harness from  MCAD Data

Create harness layouts directly from MCAD data and flatten harnesses without rework. This integration can save up to 70% of the time typically spent on manual layout adjustments, improving collaboration between electrical and mechanical teams.

Testimonials

Electrical Engineers and
Designers Love Arcadia

Wire harness design software trusted by designers and engineers.

“The Arcadia tool is excellent in several respects, but what really stands out is the enthusiasm and support of the Cadonix team. This will be key for us as we address the very specific challenges of creating a ground-breaking vehicle and delivering it on time.”

David RotheraVehicle Electronic Engineer, Riversimple

“We’ve been manufacturing high quality, competitively priced wiring harnesses for over 25 years, supplying the Automotive, Marine and Industrial markets. Having the right software tools is a major factor in our competitiveness and success. Several years ago it became clear that our existing harness design and development software package was not keeping up with fast-changing design and manufacturing techniques. Arcadia is more responsive, and its tight integration of design and manufacture enables us to work more closely with our customers

Nick CarterTechnical Director, Raffenday

“Jankel requires a state of the art electrical CAD environment that fully supports our careful test and release procedures. Arcadia stood out in terms of ease of use and flexibility, offering full electrical systems analysis, and supporting design for manufacture. A key requirement for us was interfacing the tool to our SAP purchasing environment and SolidWorks EPDM (Enterprise Product Data Management) which we use to store and manage our engineering data. Cadonix worked with us to implement this functionality. The support we've had from the Cadonix team has been exceptional, and they have been very supportive in adapting Arcadia to suit our specific needs.”

Matt SmithSenior Electrical Engineer, Jankel

“The sample Harness I created during my trial of Arcadia built up absolutely perfectly using the calculated lengths directly from the software. Using my previous methods, even on a harness half this size, I would have made at least 3 errors on average. I have recommended this software to all my customers.”
