Southern German distribution grid operator collaborates with Eplan and entegra to develop a digital twin for transformer substations.

Customers will benefit from a more efficient tool chain for machine and line engineering, making electrical engineering much faster and less prone to errors.

Automating the generation of schematics leads to faster results and fewer errors. Solutions provider Eplan has developed a variety of technical approaches for this process.

Thinking big but starting small – this is often a sensible step to take to be successful.

Eplan L!VE, an international online event broadcasting live from Sweden, will focus on production, with system integrator Sejfo and Eplan experts discussing how the Swedish company is driving growth using the Eplan Platform.

Eplan eStock gives companies access to centralised device management in the Eplan Cloud, simplifying collaboration and reducing coordination times and media discontinuities.

The new Eplan Smart Mounting software supports manual control cabinet assembly in a highly efficient manner. It leads technicians step by step through the installation of DIN rails, cable ducts and electrotechnical components, and shows where which component must be installed.

The new Eplan Platform 2023 is streamlining and accelerating project planning with new cloud-based device management and multi-standard support for schematic macros. This means that users can get results more quickly – especially when working on international projects – due to the simplified device data management system while increasing overall project quality. The new 3D graphics core, an optimised cable editor and the new Insert Center also bring more performance and transparency to engineering.

A medium sized machine building company invests an average of up to fifteen working hours per month creating missing device data – time that can be better used elsewhere. Solutions provider EPLAN is now providing support: with the new Data Portal Request Process, customers can order individual device data in Data Standard quality using the credit system. In addition, new selectors from ABB and Siemens simplify engineering, and the American NFPA format is now also supported.

4-5 May 2022 - Eplan Virtual Fair: Collaboration is everything How can people collaborate better, work together more efficiently and remain competitive in the ecosystem of industrial automation? This year’s 2022 Eplan Virtual Fair gets to the bottom of these questions.
