Modern E/E systems are characterized by a huge growth in complexity. One of the biggest challenges is developing these complex, multi-domain systems in a coherent, integrated way, which is driving companies to evolve their E/E system development approaches to meet the market challenges of tomorrow. The next generation of development approaches must blur the boundaries between software, electrical, electronic, and network development to ensure comprehensive traceability and compliance whilst accelerating product development. To help companies thrive in this new world the Capital electrical/electronic (E/E) systems development software portfolio has been strategically expanded to support this. Building upon leading Capital capabilities for the design, manufacture, and service of electrical systems, the portfolio is now expanded to encompass E/E system and software architectures, network communications, and embedded software development.

Capital is a comprehensive software suite that enables the engineering of E/E systems for large platforms such as cars, aircraft, and sophisticated machines. These platforms have substantial and increasing electronic content, which is dependent upon complex electrical distribution systems to function.

Optimize electrical and electronic (E/E) architectures against targets such as cost, weight, and bandwidth. Define and consolidate functions. Create and analyze electrical, electronic, embedded software, and network specifications. Re-use design data to create technical publications, document design changes, and enable electrical diagnostics and troubleshooting.

Capital supports both the traditional interactive design approach and state-of-the-art generative design enabling best-in-class efficiency and quality. stages, the designs can be assessed for their efficacy and validated against requirements ensuring companies deliver the best products possible. At all stages, the designs can be assessed for their efficacy and validated against requirements ensuring companies deliver the best products possible.

The success of harness manufacturers is dependent upon their ability to accurately design, optimize and cost the manufacturing processes, labor, material, and resources required to produce harnesses. Capital contributes to an optimized digital twin comprising a validated harness model and a digitalized manufacturing process model. This can be leveraged to transform a company’s engineering, costing, and manufacturing performance ultimately boosting profits.
