Zorowire vs Zuken E3.series + Harness Builder
Zuken E3.series ist eine Elektro-CAD-Suite für Windows im Enterprise-Umfeld. Mit E3.formboard und Harness Builder deckt sie Formbretter, Leitungslisten, Ausgaben für Etikettendrucker und Prüfsysteme, Maschinenexporte und seit 2026 einen Cost Estimator ab. Die Kabelbaum-Module gibt es auf Anfrage, zusätzlich zur Miete pro Platz ab 164 € im Monat. Zorowire ist für Betriebe, die von der Kundenliste ausgehen und nicht vom Schaltplan.
zuken.com · geprüftKurz gesagt
Wenn Sie das elektrische System selbst konstruieren und Maschinenprogramme und Prüfsystem-Anbindung in einer Suite brauchen, deckt E3.series mit Harness Builder weit mehr ab als Zorowire. Wenn Sie nach Kundenzeichnung fertigen und Brett, Leitungsliste und Angebot schnell und zum Preis eines kleinen Betriebs brauchen, ist Zorowire das schlankere Werkzeug.

Was Sie mit Zorowire bekommen
- Published prices from €0, per shop rather than per seat.
- Browser on any OS; no install or licence server.
- Formboard, cut list and quote in every plan, not as separate modules.
- Start in an afternoon; no multi-day training.
Wo Zuken E3 stark ist
- Full electrical design: schematics, cable design and harness manufacturing in one suite.
- Machine exports for Komax, Schleuniger and Argus, and outputs for label printers and harness testers.
- A Cost Estimator with assembly times in Harness Builder 2026.
- Many interface languages and offline work.
