Higher levels of Vault allow for files to go through Release Management to ensure the design goes through all stages required when implementing a diligent and traceable design and manufacturing process. If a previous version is required after an incorrect design change the previous version can be promoted to the current version. With multi-user access to an electrical project (as AutoCAD Electrical files are checked out, worked on and subsequently checked back in) the user, revision, and version history is logged and archived by Vault. Vault Pro also supports extraction of individual item data with the use of Item Master, this allows full BOM extraction at granular levels based on the information in the AutoCAD Electrical Project’s sheet set.

Vault supports and understands AutoCAD Electricals Parent-Child and Cross Sheet referencing systems. When Electrical and Vault are set up correctly most of the Vault work “Just Happens” and Vault deals with much of the background data exchange. Vault supports drawing previews of current and previous versions of the drawing sheets.įrom AutoCAD Electrical, accessing the Vaulted date from the Project Manager is very similar to the usual workflow when working with AutoCAD Electrical this makes it easily adopted by existing AutoCAD Electrical users. How do AutoCAD Electrical and Vault Play together? Vault manages the relationships between files, files access control, revisions and lifecycle management. Click here for more information on PLMĪutodesk Vault supports AutoCAD Electrical workflows and functionality including electrical project files and drawing sheets. Vault is also happy to work with not CAD data for a complete PLM solution, allowing the whole company to leverage design and project data. Firstly, why do we want AutoCAD Electrical to integrate with Vault?Įffective Data Management is crucial, ensuring all stakeholders in engineering and business workflows have the most accurate information available at all points in the project lifecycle, reduces costly errors and avoids unnecessary rework.Īutodesk Vault integrates with Autodesk CAD Software including Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD Electrical, AutoCAD Mechanical, AutoCAD and Revit, making it easy to manage data associated with your digital prototype from engineering through manufacturing and into the product lifecycle -saving time and ensuring data integrity. In this article, we are going to take a look at managing Autodesk AutoCAD Electrical (ACE) data in Autodesk Vault (Vault) and how this can improve your workflows. Managing your data has never been more important, especially whilst many of us are working from home. Integrating your AutoCAD Electrical data into Vault can save time and moneyĭid you know you can integrate AutoCAD Electrical with and Autodesk Vault?
