Visual Engineer; the Next Generation of Avionics Design Software

Today we will discuss about a specialized avionic industry software Visual Engineer . Visual Engineer was developed specifically for the aviation industry. This advanced software is developed by 20-year Senior Electrical Engineer, Software / Database Programmer and Avionics Industry Specialist, Doug Bess. Visual Engineer’s superior Visio and SQL database framework improves efficiency and financial performance. This software works specifically within custom aircraft modification, completion and refurbishment environments. Visual Engineer reduces custom Avionics Electrical Engineering Design & Delivery processes by 50%. A fully-integrated, fully automated software platform, Visual Engineer reduces errors and increases communications efficiencies across four vital channels in the engineering and manufacturing process – Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physical Systems Installation and Technical Publications – in order to speed aircraft delivery, improve quality and increase overall financial performance. Visual Engineer increases your completion efficiency and profit by decreasing time to completion

Electrical calculation software free download

Electrical calculation software free download SIMARIS Software from Siemens is a bless for Practicing Electrical Engineers. This software is available free of cost from Siemens website. The latest version is a bit heavy for download but you can ask for a DVD copy of this software. Let us see what this software will do for us. I am copying exact words from Siemens site:

The SIMARIS software exclusively refers to the DIN VDE and IEC standards and is designed for products and installations for:

• Medium-voltage power distribution boards

• Transformers

• Switching and protection devices

• Low-voltage power distribution boards

• Distribution boards

• Connection elements (cables / busbar trunking systems)
