FOKKER ELMO is one of the world largest providers of
systems and wiring for the aerospace and defense industry. The company has
developed a tool (WDMS - Wiring, Design and Manufacturing System) to handle the increased complexity of wiring harness
design, development, integration, and production, which involves both control
and process of an enormous amount of data. In 2009, FOKKER ELMO signed a contract with the Canadian aircraft
manufacturer
BOMBARDIER AEROSPACE to design and supply the electrical wiring
Interconnection system for the new CSeries aircraft family.
Recently, FOKKER ELMO contracted
ELSYS’s solutions
to convert existing wiring system diagram and started new harness design
add-on’s.
Both companies started two projects, combining their
knowledges and expertises.
The first project was the implementation of an
automatic retrieval and transfer of the existing PTC CADDS 5 schematics and data
into the ELSYS’s
ELECTRE software for electrical schematics.
Then, in the frame of the CSeries project, FOKKER
ELMO and ELSYS are setting up an application that will automatically generate
wiring diagrams from both WDMS and external supplier’s data.
