More than a searchable database of over 10,000 WAGO products, Version 4.0 offers added features including expanded functionality of the "Smart Designer" for custom rail assemblies. This advanced design tool saves design time by calculating the rail length, identifying errors in the design and automatically correcting them. Completed drawings can be exported to any CAD programs or into a data file. The software also provides customers with a bill of materials according to the drawings, and in numerical order, making purchasing easier.
