Introduction of the case study for the electrical and control design CAD system 'ACAD-DENKI' Mitsuba Electric Industry Co., Ltd. faced two major challenges: 1. Improving the quality of manufacturing drawings raised by the manufacturing department during the production design process. 2. Issues related to licensing costs. By introducing our developed and sold electrical design CAD 'ACAD-DENKI', they achieved a reduction in design man-hours and enabled data utilization for subsequent processes such as procurement and manufacturing. We have conducted multiple proof-of-concept experiments leveraging the 3D capabilities of the base CAD, BricsCAD, and are advancing further data integration. [Challenges before introduction] - Reducing mistakes and losses in design operations - Pursuing cost reduction and cost-effectiveness of existing electrical CAD - Utilizing design data for subsequent processes *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

■How does it compare to other companies' electrical CAD? 1. It is the No. 1 electrical CAD in Japan based on .dwg. 2. It is a user-oriented electrical CAD that reflects customer requests in the next version. 3. Staff with knowledge of electrical design provide early launch support and comprehensive assistance. 4. It is an electrical CAD that can flexibly accommodate customization. ■What is the difference between general-purpose CAD and ACAD-DENKI? 【In the case of general-purpose CAD】 1. General-purpose CAD takes time to create drawings. 2. General-purpose CAD cannot reuse data. 3. Necessary information cannot be extracted from general-purpose CAD. 4. All drawing checks are done visually with general-purpose CAD. 【In the case of ACAD-DENKI】 1. Efficiently creates drawings using electrical-specific commands. 2. Eliminates waste during drawing creation with commands that support reuse design. 3. Extracts information from drawings and automatically creates parts lists and From-To lists. 4. Automatically checks multiple drawings.

■High Compatibility Highly compatible with AutoCAD, making migration easy. You can inherit your existing AutoCAD assets (dwg, dxf data) directly in BricsCAD. As a compatible CAD, it also supports features such as external reference editing, automatic dimension adjustment, multi-text editing, quick selection, wipeout, layer state management, and CUI menu files. ■High Cost Performance A surprisingly low-priced perpetual license that also supports AI. It can handle 2D, 3D, and BIM at this low price! Additionally, it offers a variety of licensing options, including network licenses, and is available for international use, allowing for cost reduction. ■Operate 2D, 3D, and BIM with the Same Software Easily create 3D models from 2D drawings and unfold 3D data into 2D drawings. Since everything is within the same software, there’s no need to launch different software for each data set. Being able to generate 3D data from 2D drawings makes it the best choice if you are considering transitioning to 3D in the future. ■Optimal Customization Available You can create your own commands to use CAD in a more user-friendly way. BricsCAD provides development tools (LISP, SDS, COM, BRX, .Net) that are compatible with AutoCAD.

【Client】 Control Device, Power Distribution Board Manufacturer, Company A, Technical Department 【Background of ACAD-DENKI Introduction】 The client was considering updating their CAD system due to the aging of hardware, including servers. However, it became clear that the costs associated with hardware updates, such as OS and software upgrades and the migration of customizations, would be significant, leading to a plan for a fundamental review. They compared multiple electrical CAD systems, including ACAD-DENKI, by borrowing them for practical evaluation. The key points of consideration included the implementation of feasible functions for new initiatives, the extent to which current operations could be conducted without customization, and the responsiveness of the manufacturer and distributor. As a result of this evaluation, they decided to introduce ACAD-DENKI. 【Reasons for Choosing ACAD-DENKI】 ● It excelled in maintenance tasks such as adding attributes and system updates within the standard package. ● They could perceive the potential for data utilization, expandability, and future growth through attributes. ● It allowed for detailed settings during drafting, which was expected to improve drafting efficiency. ● They appreciated the user-oriented approach in considering solutions for their requests.

**Client** Manufacturer of distribution boards/control panels/automation panels: Company N **Background of the Wiring Support System Implementation** The company primarily engaged in the design and manufacturing of control panels for its parent company, but in pursuit of future business expansion, it began to manufacture distribution boards and control panels from other companies. However, since it was a latecomer in this field, competitiveness became a challenge. The management requested improvements focused on "efficiency and cost reduction in the processes from design to manufacturing," leading the design group to spend considerable time gathering information while going through trial and error. During this time, they participated in a seminar introducing the wiring support system hosted by Alpha Tech, and upon realizing the potential for significant benefits if successful, they decided to implement it. **Reasons for Choosing the Wiring Support System** - The manufacturer of the electrical control CAD had many years of experience and a proven track record in development, sales, and support. - Through in-house verification before implementation, they identified the potential for a system that could achieve efficiency from design to manufacturing. - A consistent support system was prepared from design to manufacturing operations, providing accurate support from the pre-implementation stage.
