Reduce Wire Harness Build Times Up To 50%

Faster Builds. Full Traceability.

smartBuild transforms complex design data into clear, automated manufacturing guidance; eliminating ambiguity, reducing rework, and enabling faster, higher-quality, and more consistent builds through intelligent validation and instant updates.

Do These Problems Sound Familiar?

Is Traditional Harness Manufacturing Holding You Back?

Formboard

Long Lead Times On Formboard Production

Sourcing formboards for new harness production takes up to 3 weeks.

Time Intensive Harness Builds

Slow build processes lead to delayed order fulfillment and project bottlenecks.

No IT Required
Harness Quote

Inefficient Process Leading To Increased Costs

Scrap, manual build sequence drafting, and travel between testing stations inflate costs.

Lack Of Reporting And Compliance Tracking​

Manual or unavailable reporting preventing shops from achieving continuous improvement.

Group Collaboration

smartBuild Is The Solution

smartBuild helps manufacturers overcome slow, error-prone build processes by replacing scattered instructions with clear, connected guidance. With smartBuild, teams achieve faster builds, higher quality, and more consistent results across every project.

Up To 50%

Accelerated
Production

Highlight every wire path, including splices and twisted pairs, while guiding precise terminal placement into connectors and cavities.

95%

Reduction in
Design-to-Build

Load virtual formboards instantly, eliminating printing and storage costs and delivering ready-to-build designs that update without delay.

Utiliser Smartbuild

SmartBuild transforme le processus de fabrication des faisceaux de câbles en remplaçant les fiches traditionnelles sur papier par un espace de travail entièrement numérique et interactif. Conçu pour la précision et l’efficacité, il rationalise la disposition des faisceaux, réduit les erreurs grâce à la validation en temps réel de la conception et permet des mises à jour transparentes sans réimpressions coûteuses. Avec Smart Build, les fabricants peuvent accélérer la production, réduire les déchets et s’assurer que chaque construction est correcte du premier coup, ce qui permet d’économiser du temps, des matériaux et des efforts. Arcadia Schematic est parfait pour les fabricants d’équipements d’origine (OEM) et les fabricants de harnais.
