Agro Mousquetaire
Agro Mousquetaire

In 2020, Agro Mousquetaire decided to standardize all its electrical schematics, using a single, consistent, high-performance model. But in practice, how has such a large Group managed to standardize its ecosystem? How did it manage to involve all of its teams in this standardization? What major challenges did Agro Mousquetaire face, and how did it meet each one of them? How di dit manage to operate a smooth transition? These are just some of the questions we'll be trying to answer here, with the help of Agro Mousquetaire.

AMS
AMS

The company AMS is located in Angers in Western France. Special-purpose machinery accounts for 80% of our business while tooling and test benches each account for 10%. AMS operates in the industrial sector, in the automotive and machinery industries. AMS supplies assembly lines which are automated, robotized and flexible, as well as test benches and production-line tooling. SEE Electrical Expert solutions have helped us to incorporate methodology into our designs, allowing us to standardize projects and save time on technical and equipment decisions. At the end of 2019, we decided to purchase the 3D Panel module to be able to remove errors and work more closely with our mechanical design office. We were able to further improve the exchange of data between the design offices. 3D Panel provides greater flexibility in our cabinet designs and in the choice of suppliers

APPLITECH
APPLITECH

Applitech is a System Integrator located in Haarlem, the Netherlands. The company designs and manufactures control and power panels up to 6,300 A. All these panels are customized for each client. Applitech was using AutoCAD for the design of electrical schematics, but they realized this package could not meet all their expectations in terms of electrical design and automation. SEE Electrical Advanced from IGE+XAO was chosen because of its competitive price and high level of functionality. Wiring diagrams are designed with SEE Electrical and panels layouts with SEE Electrical 3D Panel+. Once the panel layout is finalized, manufacturing data are sent automatically to the drilling machine that will actually drill and then mill the mounting plate based on this data. Applitech also uses the additional “copper” module for SEE Electrical 3D Panel+. Copper design is made with this module and here also generation of manufacturing information (drawings, bending angles, punch holes…) is automatically sent to the copper and bending machines for immediate manufacturing without error. Applitech enjoys SEE Electrical ease of use. In addition, powerful functionality enables the company to design electrical projects quickly (in particular “copy” function) and to manage manufacturing machines automatically. At the electrical schematics design stage, the component database is very flexible and users can create their own part numbers if needed.

MUNTERS
MUNTERS

Munters is a global leader in innovative, energy-efficient and sustainable climate solutions for mission-critical processes. They offer innovative, efficient and sustainable solutions for customers in many different industries where controlling temperature and humidity is mission-critical. Munters Solutions reduce customers’ climate and environmental impact through lower resource consumption, and in the process contribute to cleaner air, higher efficiency and reduced carbon emissions. Sustainability is an important part of Munters’ business strategy and value creation. Munters China has selected SEE Electrical Advanced to manage more efficiently electrical design. SEE Electrical, an IGE+XAO Group software package, covers all small and medium businesses requirements in electrical schematics. Available in three versions “Basic”, “Standard” and “Advanced”, SEE Electrical is the ideal tool which can evolve according to customers needs Before selecting SEE Electrical, Munters China was spending a lot of time in creating or modifying PLC equipment in their electrical projects. Thanks to PLC features that are available from the Standard level, Munters is now able to quickly import data with MS Excel and easily assign equipment on the schematics. Second difficulty for Munters was to make sure that the cabinet was consistent with electrical schematics. With the use of the 2D Cabinet layout module, the cabinet design is now completley consistent with the schematics. If a change is made for instance on the cabinet view, the schematics are automatically updated. Also, at the design stage, the use of standard component symbols helps design the cabinet fastly and accurately. Once the design work is done, Munters electrical designers can automatically number the components, wires and terminals and generate graphical lists. With the adoption of this new electrical CAD package, Munters China now designs electrical projects more efficiently and also more accurately.

SEMCO MARITIME
SEMCO MARITIME

The drawing basis is SEE Electrical, an electrical cad package from IGE+XAO, which Semco Maritime has used successfully. During the upgrade, we were faced with the challenge that the XAL program had to be merged with the SEE Electrical program that we neither would nor could do without. One of the great advantages of SEE Electrical is indeed that the program generates in one click a list of spare parts.
