Alligator Automations Cuts Design Effort by 50%

02 Apr 2026 CW Team

Alligator Automations India has reduced electrical design engineering effort by around 50 per cent after implementing WSCAD’s E-CAD solution. The company’s electrical engineering team now uses the platform for schematics, control cabinet design, and project documentation.

Earlier, processes such as wire numbering, device grouping, and bill-of-materials generation were handled manually, leading to delays and higher error risks. With automation of these tasks, efficiency and accuracy have improved significantly. Wire numbering alone now takes nearly half the time, enabling engineers to focus on complex design and optimisation.

The company delivers customised automation solutions including robotic palletising, packaging systems, automatic loading, and intralogistics conveyors, covering the full project lifecycle from design to commissioning.

WSCAD’s solution also enables 2D and 3D cabinet layouts, automatic wire routing, and seamless data transfer to manufacturing systems. AI-enabled features such as documentation, verification, and multilingual support further enhance productivity while ensuring compliance and data quality.
