Software for Hydraulic and Electrical Systems

01/02/2013 12:19 PM

I need some advice about which software I can use for making hydraulic and electrical drawings essentially, also simulation in both cases but my priority is to make drawings easily. I draw on your experience in this area and I hope you can give me any suggestion. Thanks!

AutoCad® works for me. There are many others that are just as good.

PencilAndPaper 1.0 is also very good. Word on the street is that the KrisDel™ corporation uses it exclusively.

Whenever I see one of this type of question, I have to shake my head. Not just here at CR4, I hear this sort of thing every week somewhere.

I learned to draw with PencilAndPaper 1.0, and then learned to transfer the drawing to the improved InkAndVellum 1.6. Who remembers the Leroy Lettering bug? Who remembers how to use one? I'm not sure I can remember how, the CAD I use has eliminated that chore, made me lazy. New draftsmen no longer have to understand how things work, they simply have to produce pretty pictures in a hurry.

There, I feel better.

Hi

For the best system you need "Automation Studio". It is expensive but the only system I know that does it all including simulation.

AutoCad Electrical. Yes, it does hydraulics and pneumatics. But it doesn't do simulation.
