ELECTRO

Since its inception in 1985, the ELECTRO 2D/RS field simulator from INTEGRATED Engineering Software has set the standard for electric field design software. ELECTRO combines the advantages of both the Boundary Element Method (BEM) and Finite Element Method (FEM) field solvers. ELECTRO is an easy-to-use 2D/RS electric field solver for applications like:

Standoff insulator

    Standoff insulator

  • Transformers
  • Insulators, bushings, grounding electrodes
  • Micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS)
  • High voltage shields
  • Power transmission lines
  • Telecommunication cables
  • Micro strip and integrated circuits
  • High voltage switchgears
  • Xerographic process modeling
  • Parts and assemblies subject to electrical fields

 

Fast and accurate, ELECTRO calculates electric field strength, force, torque, transmission line parameters and capacitance.

Our powerful parametric solvers allow designers to automatically vary and experiment with geometry, materials and sources – reducing the tedious, repetitive task of fine–tuning multiple design parameters.

As easy as one, two, three

ELECTRO provides fast, accurate results, exact modeling of boundaries and easy analysis of open region problems. ELECTRO delivers an easy-to-use, powerful electrostatic field analysis tool right to your desktop.

ELECTRO goes to work in just three easy steps.

Step 1                                       Step 2                                     Step 3

Create a physical model              Obtain a field solution             Analyze the solved model

 

ELECTRO reduces design time while improving product performance by letting you design via computer simulations thereby reducing costs and risks associated with physical prototyping.

ELECTRO is also easy-to-learn, so you can focus on product development, not software training.
