Piaggio Selects Zuken Software for Design

By using Zuken's software, Piaggio will be able to reduce time to market and accommodate the increased scale of operations, a press release states. The company has already used it to exchange data with existing CAD tools.

“We looked for a tool to give an end-to-end design path from schematic capture to physical design," said Luigi Baracchino, electrical engineering manager, Piaggio. "One of the reasons E³.series stood out is its inbuilt electrical intelligence. This will help us reduce rework and add digital prototyping into our engineering design process to satisfy challenging time-to-market and quality demands. Piaggio Group previously used a generic rather than wiring harness-dedicated 2D design tool for cabling design, but it was unable to meet stringent new cost effectiveness, global parts unification and time efficiency targets. We selected E³.series after benchmarking several CAD tools.”
