Intelligent object and data management with easy navigation

Centralized data management system ensures that every element, whether it's a device or a cable, is considered a single object with multiple occurrences. This means you only need to create or import the element once, and it can easily be inserted or assigned to other documents via the project tree. With our navigation tools, finding all occurrences of an element is a breeze, making editing and updating quick and efficient. Keep track of changes and maintain project quality with our easy-to-use comparison features.

How CADMATIC Electrical transformed the electrical design of T1 Mall of Tallinn

The CADMATIC Electrical centralized data management was of critical importance in the design work of the electrical systems of T1 Mall of Tallinn shopping center.

Read the case study

"Although modelling with CADMATIC Electrical is easy and efficient, it is not to be taken at face value. Modelling is a key in projects where is an enormous amount of building engineering involved. Thanks to modelling, the client is able to better estimate how well the premises will match their final purpose."
