Capital X Panel Designer Advanced
When electrical and mechanical teams work as one
Electromechanical Codesign refers to structured collaboration between electrical and mechanical engineering disciplines during panel or product development. Instead of manually recreating or interpreting electrical data inside MCAD environments, structured design information transfers between ECAD and MCAD tools to maintain consistency across schematics, BOMs, and mechanical assemblies.
Capital X Panel Designer Advanced is built for this. It supports coordinated ECAD and MCAD engineering workflows through structured data transfer aligned with Siemens Xcelerator tools, including Designcenter Solid Edge, Designcenter NX, and Teamcenter.
What Advanced does differently
The Advanced tier extends panel design beyond drawing into structured engineering data exchange. Export schematic data and panel BOM information into formats recognized by Siemens Xcelerator tools, so engineering teams can reduce manual reinterpretation and support coordinated ECAD-MCAD workflows.
Direct export to Designcenter Solid Edge and Designcenter NX
Component tags, descriptions, and quantities from your 2D schematic transfer directly into your 3D mechanical assembly. Device lists go to the mechanical team automatically.
Enterprise visibility via Teamcenter PLM
Electrical design data feeds directly into Teamcenter so procurement, manufacturing, and mechanical teams all access the same version-controlled information.
Consistent engineering datasets
Fewer version mismatches. Less cross-checking effort. Faster alignment between electrical and mechanical disciplines.
Who benefits from Advanced
Electrical engineers
Export structured design data without manually recreating device lists for the mechanical team.
Mechanical engineers
Receive consistent component information prepared directly from electrical schematics.
Engineering managers
Improve visibility and coordination across electrical and mechanical workflows without chasing both teams.

Capital X Panel Designer vs Traditional CAD Software
Why Engineers Are Moving Away from Legacy Electrical CAD Tools, And You Should Too
Traditional electrical CAD software was built for a different era of engineering. Installed locally, updated manually, and siloed from mechanical workflows, legacy tools create overhead that modern engineering teams can't afford. You risk increased human errors and costs concurrently with increased demand in the market.
Let’s take a quick look at the differences:
| Capability | Capital X Panel Designer | Traditional Electrical CAD |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | Cloud-native, browser-based. No installation, easy access anywhere. | Locally installed. Tied to a specific machine or license seat. |
| Collaboration | Real-time, simultaneous. Multiple engineers on the same schematic. | File-based. One person at a time. Version conflicts common. |
| Electromechanical codesign within Siemens Xcelerator environment | Structured data transfer to Designcenter Solid Edge, Designcenter NX, and Teamcenter on Advanced plan. | Manual export via spreadsheet or neutral formats. Error-prone. |
| Symbol library access | Built-in library covering IEC, JIC, NFPA, P&ID, pneumatic, and hydraulic standards. Custom symbol creation and reuse across projects. | Varies. Often requires manual import or separate license for extended libraries. |
| Updates and maintenance | Automatic. SaaS based. Always on the latest version, no IT involvement. | Manual updates required. Often tied to annual maintenance contracts. |
| Scalability for SMBs | Flexible plans. Start on Essentials, scale up as the team grows. | High upfront cost. Seat-based licensing can be restrictive for smaller teams. |
| Electrical drafting standards | JIC/NFPA, IEC 60617, P&ID, hydraulic and pneumatic circuits supported. | Standards support varies by product and edition. |
Comparison is generalized and based on commonly reported characteristics of traditional installed electrical CAD tools. Specific products may vary.
Reset and recharged from your summer break? Time to upgrade to a more modern, efficient electrical CAD tool, and tackle new projects with less friction.
Save time, reduce costs, and achieve more with less. Let the automation tools do the heavy lifting while you focus on the details that actually matter.

About Features & Capabilities
1. Does Capital X Panel Designer support automated wire numbering and cable numbering?
Yes. Capital X Panel Designer automates wire and cable numbering across your schematics, eliminating the manual work of tracking and updating numbers as your design evolves. Numbering stays consistent across your project — if you make changes, the platform updates references automatically, reducing the risk of errors in your final documentation.
2. Can Capital X Panel Designer generate a bill of materials automatically?
Yes. Capital X Panel Designer generates a bill of materials automatically from your schematic and panel layout. As your design changes, the BOM updates in real time so your materials list always reflects the current state of your project without manual reconciliation. This is particularly useful for panel designers who need to hand off accurate component lists to procurement or manufacturing teams.
3. What is ECAD-MCAD integration and why does it matter for panel design?
ECAD-MCAD integration connects your electrical design software with your mechanical CAD tool, so changes in your panel layout (component placement, wire routing, BOM) reflect in the mechanical enclosure design automatically. Without it, engineers manually re-enter data between tools, which introduces errors and rework. Capital X Panel Designer Advanced supports this workflow natively, and the Designcenter Solid Edge bundle extends it into a full electromechanical pipeline.
4. What electrical symbols do Capital X Panel Designer support? Can I download them for free?
Capital X Panel Designer includes built-in symbol libraries covering all major electrical and engineering standards — IEC, JIC, NFPA, P&ID, pneumatic, hydraulic, and Layout 3D. Your team can work to whichever standard your project or client requires without building symbol sets from scratch.
