Zuken’s 2023 release for Harness Builder for E3.series features a complete graphical overhaul, giving the tool a modern feel and making it easier to understand and use.

Includes an improved window configuration with an added structure to the window tabs, making navigating detailed sections such as reports, exports, analysis, and utility tools easier. User interface also groups core settings in one location under the main Harness Builder window, making finding and keeping consistent report data more manageable. Interface now allows customers to choose the export options they require for the plug-in.

Also includes ability to apply automatic watermarks for shareable harness drawings, with option to refine controls such as the number of watermarks to add, rotation, placement, and other text properties. Features a refresh for the method of adding documentation for splices, allowing ability to quickly place the on-sheet splice documentation for multiple splices using the new splice context menu options. Selecting several splices and then running the command through the Harness Builder context menu will have the tables appear individually, ready to insert into the documentation.

Also adds ability to define how to identify a wire harness based on attributes, a drawing sheet, the complete project, or bringing together an entire assembly through structure nodes, and reports and exports can then apply and use the wire harness name and version for release tracking. Also features improved handling of twisted wire length calculations for detailed reports, and considers factors relating to the number of twists and material composition to ensure that length calculations are accurate, preventing short wires during wire cutting that can lead to rework and waste. Adds a harness braiding cost and weight estimator that provides a precise estimate of the cost and weight of material for the braiding machines, and also adds a new export option to nVent PWA6000 for wire processing.
