- Realistic Planning of WAGO Products in 3D
- Always available, always up-to-date: access to projects at any time and from anywhere in the world – no installation necessary
- Plausibility checks prevent planning errors
CAD
WAGO offers a large number of CAD formats for configuring your design. Use your usual CAD tool to import your configuration from WAGO’s Smart Designer configurator.
Documentation
Save time and avoid errors when creating control cabinet documentation – automatically from Smart Designer. You benefit from all the relevant product and process data necessary for standards-compliant documentation.
Marking
Marking control cabinets is easy with the WAGO Smart Printer thermal transfer printer. Depending on how you work, you have the option of printing markings from a large variety of systems.
Delivery
Get completely assembled rails or individual products – WAGO provides the selected components as needed.
Configurator
Whether in the plausibility check for the structure of the terminal strips or the documentation for the control cabinet: WAGO’s Smart Designer configurator supports you in creating individually configured products.
CAE
Use your preferred CAE tool for electrical planning – WAGO offers interfaces to various CAE tools (e.g., EPLAN, E3, WS CAD and Engineering Base).
Configure Individual Products
- Always available, always up-to-date: The Smart Designer online configurator offers access to projects at any time and from anywhere in the world – no installation necessary.
- Easy cooperation on a configuration project, even at different development sites
- Save time and avoid errors with location-independent project processing, without different processing statuses, data exchange via email etc.
- Get your bearings quickly and save time with a selection of pre-defined standard views.
- Item numbers always up-to-date
- Plausibility checks prevent planning errors.
- Insert user-specific products as placeholders.
Familiar Planning in the CAE Tool
Use your familiar CAE tool for planning circuit diagrams. WAGO offers you high-quality CAE product data and CAE macros. Interfaces to several CAE tools (e.g., ePLAN and WSCAD) allow planned terminal strips to be built up automatically in the Smart Designer configurator.
- Interfaces to Various Systems
- Instead of entering item numbers, use the bidirectional interface to EPLAN to plan faster with function definitions.
- Pass the circuit diagrams to Smart Designer, construct terminal strips automatically and save a great deal of time.
- Plausibility checks help you avoid errors in your planning.
- Automatic transfer of the printing data from the CAE tool to the Smart Printer thermal transfer printer minimizes time and errors.
Documentation
Export parts lists and assembly diagrams directly from the Smart Designer configurator to create production documents or support ordering for the purchasing process.
Benefit from the automatic import of item numbers for individual components into your ERP system and from complete, standards-compliant PDF documentation (e.g., per FSF standard for track and rail vehicles).
Marking
Marking control cabinets is easy with the WAGO Smart Printer thermal transfer printer: Depending on how you work, you have the option of printing markings from a large variety of systems (with a standard CAE tool, the Smart Designer online configurator and the Smart Script marketing software).
You also benefit from a printer with a low purchase price that is universally suitable for marking all items contained in the control cabinet.
CAD Design
Use your usual CAD tool to import your configuration from Smart Designer. This is possible without exception thanks to the availability of various CAD formats (neutral and native 2D/3D CAD formats).
Technical and commercial item information is available to you as high-quality data.
You determine the product data granularity yourself.
