SpaceCable 2006 is released - Introducing the next generation of harness design and manufacturing
28th April 2006
BUDAPEST Hungary — April 28, 2006 — MIP Ltd., the 3D computer-aided design
(CAD) software company, today announced that the 2006 version of the leading
harnessing solution "SpaceCable" for CoCreate's "OneSpace Designer Modeling" is
released.
SpaceCable, powerful yet an easy-to-use harnessing solution, gives automated
cable route design capabilities fully integrated into CoCreate's OneSpace
Designer Modeling.
SpaceCable 2006 is featuring 3 new modules and several enhancements, making the
product one of the best harnessing solution in the market.

SpaceCable 2006 is the ideal platform for companies striving for shorter "time
to market" and "full digital mockup without prototyping" or those who simply
want to design better products faster.
Today, most companies design their wire harnesses and cable systems by waiting
for a hardware prototype and then manually measuring to determine the wire
lengths. The manual nature of the wiring design process typically requires two
or three iterations before an acceptable harness is manufactured. This process
is time consuming and costly. SpaceCable automatically calculates wire lengths
and bundle diameters, checks the design rules, creates harness bill of materials
(BOM), cable manufacturing drawings and completes other harnessing related
tasks.
According to MIP's SpaceCable product manager Sinan Akyar, it ensures the best
performance and significantly reduces overall design time. Contrary to other
cabling solutions in the market, which are more or less focussed for how to
route a cable, pipe or tube, SpaceCable is covering the technological aspects of
the cabling design as well.
Then adds Sinan Akyar "Our Cabling system is a reflection of our efforts in
making our customers' lives simpler. Features such as intelligent automatic
routing, auto snapin connections, dynamic cabling functionality further push the
boundaries in 3D harness design and manufacturing. We are confident that the
time and cost-saving benefits of SpaceCable 2006 will be instantly recognised by
our customers, both in Europe and abroad."
For example, a midrange car today has 50-100 individual electronic systems that
the designer have to connect by wire harnesses, with about 2,500 interconnects.
By integrating the electronic and mechanical design environments, SpaceCable
helps designers to automate the generation of harnessing, significantly
minimizing the chance for errors and reducing engineering time.
SpaceCable targets electro mechanical equipment, machine building and automotive
designers, who have traditionally been forced to choose between barely
functional tools and expensive, highly specialized applications that don't meet
all of their needs.
SpaceCable is an all-inclusive package for customers who need to have a complete
set of harnessing tools from ECAD interface to cable manufacturing and
eliminates much of the manual work that other routing software requires, all
without leaving the OneSpace Designer Modeling environment. This integrated
approach helps customers complete harness designs quickly to speed products to
market.
