Schneider Electric Doubles Productivity for Electrical Compliance Checks Using PTC Creo
- 1. PTC Creo was selected because it is the only virtual prototyping solution that provides the ability to check insulation compliance on complex mechatronic systems Schneider Electric doubles productivity for electrical compliance checks using PTC Creo
- 2. 2 Schneider Electric is a global specialist in energy management and offers integrated solutions for Utilities & Infrastructure, Industries & Machines Manufacturers, Non-residential Buildings, Data Centers & Networks and in Residential. “PTC Creo brings further 3D analysis in MCAD in addition to the ECAD analyses which are currently limited to 2D electrical compliance checks of one electronic board alone.” Schneider Electric Philippe Pradoura, MCAD Product Manager Schneider Electric doubles productivity for electrical compliance checks using PTC Creo Schneider Electric Product examples
- 3. 3 S o l u t i o n • PTC Creo replaces a manual process to identify electrical non-compliances • PTC Creo was selected because it is the only virtual prototyping solution that provides ability to check insulation compliance on complex mechatronic systems • PTC Creo enables ECAD and MCAD collaboration, essential to design electric systems with embedded electronics I n i t i a t i v e s • Improve time to market by increasing designers’ productivity in compliance checks • Manage late stage design iterations and identify potential issues early in the process to reduce costs • Continue to improve product quality while designing more compact products requiring more exhaustive electrical path checks R e s u l t s • Schneider Electric doubled its productivity using PTC Creo for electrical compliance checks, but still manages some standard electrical compliance checks by other means • PTC Creo raised early electrical non-compliance detection rate from 70% to 100% • Schneider Electric checks compliance as far as printed circuit copper tracks, imported in PTC Creo by custom means Schneider Electric doubles productivity for electrical compliance checks using PTC Creo Schneider Electric is a global specialist in energy management and offers integrated solutions for Utilities & Infrastructure, Industries & Machines Manufacturers, Non-residential Buildings, Data Centers & Networks and in Residential.

- Additional Information: Customer website: http://www.schneider-electric.com Before using PTC Creo, there was 1 chance over 3 to identify a creepage distance problem at product manufacturing stage, and, as a consequence, to delay the project by one month, which corresponds to a cost of approx. 100 000 €. The way Schneider Electric performs today electrical compliancy checks on printed circuit copper tracks is for the moment a workaround implying to transfer copper tracks from ECAD software to PTC CAD tool via idf files, that is not a market-standard. Schneider Electric counts on the IDX standard support in PTC Creo to have a more unified process, which is expected in PTC Creo 4.0 release. PTC Creo Spark Analysis also facilitates the clearance and creepages documentation and report process. It helps comprehensively identifying and quantifying clearance and creepage non-compliancies. Regression studies are also significantly facilitated and helps maintain the products even if the teams are different.
