Electrical Systems Design and Wire Harness Manufacturing in a PLM takeover?

By Expert Insights

Mentor’s Capital product will be front and center of the upcoming Mentor Connection conference, June 4-7, 2018 in Phoenix; part of the much bigger Siemens PLM Connections. With over 25 sessions on Electrical Systems Design and Wire Harness Manufacturing, you will see how leading OEMs and harness suppliers are using Capital and other tools to spec, design, manufacture and service complex electrical systems. General Motors, Gulfstream, Navistar, Faraday Future and all five of the top wire harness suppliers, Delphi/Aptiv, Yazaki, Lear, LEONI Wiring and Sumitomo, will be sharing their ideas and best practices for electrical system design and wire harness manufacturing.

Siemens PLM Connections itself has over 400 sessions and many hands on training sessions that are open to all attendees. These are presented by industry leading experts from around the world, demonstrating strategy, integration, improvements, and new ideas.

This conference is a must-attend event for anyone using or considering Capital – it includes customer presentations, tips and best practices sessions, roundtables, product demonstrations, roadmap sessions, and numerous networking events.
