SOLIDWORKS Electrical: I Have a Design Need Now What?

  What is SOLIDWORKS Electrical? With its real-time, multi-user design, SOLIDWORKS Electrical enables complex schematic designs to be easily shared across multiple disciplines. The software translates single line schematics into detailed multi-line power and control and PLC schematics.   Do Electrical Engineers use CAD? Electrical engineers design, develop, and test the manufacturing of electrical equipment. CAD enables these engineers to create electrical and electronic diagrams, control circuit diagrams, schematics, and documentation.   Do Electrical Engineers use SOLIDWORKS? Electrical engineers need direct access to all electrical projects and data within the CAD environment to streamline the design process. SOLIDWORKS Electrical integrates […]

SOLIDWORKS PDM – What is Cold Storage?

Cold Storage is a feature in SOLIDWORKS PDM that will automatically move or delete old versions of files. It can be used to reduce the amount of disk space required on an archive server. It’s similar to tape backups that would be used to take data offline to minimize storage requirements in the early days of computing. While adding disk storage is relatively inexpensive these days, managing your file archive is something an administrator should consider. In this post we will discuss some considerations, how to configure cold storage, and how it is used.
