Ships

The big advantage of Engineering Base is that the software covers all engineering disciplines, from process and automation engineering through to electrical design. Collaboration between the individual disciplines is extremely important, especially in shipbuilding.

Cable routing in particular plays a huge role, with several miles of cable sometimes needing to be laid. Here, Engineering Base Cable provides the perfect solution, as it greatly simplifies cable routing. When planning ship wiring, the electrical and mechanical specialists are both dependent on each other's data. It is also particularly important in shipbuilding to maintain a sense of spatial orientation. This is where the 3D link-up for Engineering Base Cable comes into play, as it integrates mechanical information directly into the digital electrical harness model. This greatly simplifies collaboration between mechanical and electrical development by allowing both disciplines to work in parallel and retrieve information in a consistently up-to-date, synchronized form – accelerating the planning process significantly.
