If you’re reading this, then you’re already intrigued by how ECAD best practices can help you design a wire harness more efficiently and accurately. Transitioning from manual wire harness design to using electronic CAD software is a rewarding journey, but that doesn’t mean you’re not nervous about it. Even if you know it will improve […]
You might have already tried free electrical drawing software, and that’s why you’re here. Basic features offer some value, but the electrical drawing software you use determines the efficiency, reliability, accuracy, and ultimately, the success of your designs. You need something more advanced. To make your choice easier, we’ve put together 5 key factors to […]
We recently conducted a Webinar on the traditional wire harness design process vs. applying the practical approach of using Arcadia. in case you missed it, check out this breakdown of what we covered. 1. Limitations of a Traditional Wire Harness Design Process Due to manual synchronisation between drawing cut lists, manufacturing documentation, and shop floor […]
Consider exactly what wire-harness solutions are: comprehensive systems that integrate electrical wires, cables, connectors, and other components into structured assemblies. They have to provide reliable and organized means of transmitting electrical signals and power in various applications. It’s complicated, in other words. If you’re working manually, the complexity only heightens, along with the costs. Working […]
Of all the types of electrical drawings, schematic diagrams are the most helpful for troubleshooting. A wiring diagram maker can give you the relative layout of the circuit components, and you can use symbols and components. But the wiring drawing by itself isn’t particularly easy for understanding circuit operation or troubleshooting. This is where a […]
ECAD and MCAD: Which to use and how to use them together When it comes to wire harness design, there are two primary types of software: Electronic Computer-Aided Design (ECAD) and Mechanical Computer-Aided Design (MCAD). These are essentially two different approaches to designing wire harnesses. ECAD software concentrates on designing the electrical components of a […]

It’s clear from the frequent headlines that competing billionaires perceive space as the ultimate flex of their wealth and power. Although it’s cool to be a little churlish about these displays, there is no doubt that technologies and innovations will trickle down and drive demand for production. A large part of space and satellite systems […]
Funding your very own suborbital space flight in a custom-made spacecraft has become the ‘it’ thing for billionaires to do in recent times, with Elon Musk paving the way for private space investment two decades ago and tens of others following suit. Both Richard Brandson (with Virgin Galactic), and Jeff Bezos (with Blue Origin), have […]
