Cofaso Software

[edit]

Cofaso Software develops electrical computer-aided design (ECAD) and computer-aided engineering (CAE) software solutions. Its primary product, cofaso, is used for creating and managing electrical control system designs and documentation across industries such as automation, manufacturing, and mechatronics.

Overview

[edit]

Cofaso is a modular CAD/CAE platform designed for professionals working in electrical engineering and control system design. It provides a range of features for creating electrical schematics, panel layouts, and project documentation. The software supports global electrical standards including IEC, DIN, and NFPA, and is available in multiple languages.

Key capabilities of the software include:

  • Automatic generation of schematics
  • Cross-referencing of symbols and components
  • Wire and device numbering
  • Bill of materials (BOM) and parts list creation
  • Reusable libraries and macro management

The platform can be integrated into enterprise environments and supports automation of design processes to improve efficiency and reduce repetitive tasks.
