Capital Podcast: “Design Tools and Practices – Past, Present and into the Future”
Today we’re in the early stages of the digital transformation. To appreciate just how far we’ve come, it makes sense to take a moment and look back at the tools we used throughout the decades before model-based design, 3D CAD – even the desktop computer. Yes, that far back.
In this episode, “Design Tools and Practices – Past, Present and into the Future” we discuss the tools and methodologies electrical engineers have used in the past. The popular tools used today. And the promise of what future tools might bring. The industry has gone through numerous catalysts, or inflection points that have fostered change over the years, and we’ll discuss a few of these catalysts. We’ll talk about the impetus behind these catalysts and how these catalysts changed the landscape for the better.
Of course, we’ll also talk about our current catalyst – the digital transformation.
Capital today – and into the future
Capital has been involved in electrical system development for the past 20 years. It offered a model-based approach before the digital enterprise took off. Just recently, Capital’s electrical and electronic systems development environment has been expanded beyond electrical distribution systems, to electrical systems modeling and optimization, electronics software and networks. Capital is now a comprehensive E/E development environment with direct ties to the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio. The Xcelerator portfolio has tentacles that extend into many of Siemens’ most popular PLM, ALM, and systems engineering solutions.
