The focus lies on individual customer requirements, underpinned by technical expertise, industry knowledge, and long-term project experience.
Customers benefit from optimized development processes, increased product quality, reduced time-to-market, and lower costs—enabled by modern technologies and systematic consulting.
Service Portfolio
The d.u.h.Group offers a comprehensive service portfolio covering the entire digital value chain—from initial concept through implementation to continuous optimization. The objective is to provide integrated, future-ready solutions for clients in technology-intensive industries.
Digital solutions generate measurable value when technology, industry-specific know-how, and structured consulting are seamlessly combined. Based on this principle, the d.u.h.Group acts as a reliable digitalization partner, guiding companies along the full value chain in engineering, software, and process integration.
In engineering, the d.u.h.Group supports customers with the development, design, and simulation of technical components, machinery, and systems. Advanced technologies such as digital twins and lightweight design accelerate development cycles, reduce costs, and enhance product quality. These services are complemented by customized software implementations: As a certified Siemens Digital Industries Software partner, the d.u.h.Group deploys CAD/CAE tools and comprehensive PLM systems based on Teamcenter to seamlessly connect product data and processes.
The portfolio also includes tailored software applications built with low-code platforms. Whether for process automation, system integration, or real-time dashboards, implementations are scalable, efficient, and adapted to specific use cases.
CONNECTOR
The Siemens Teamcenter Connector for EPLAN enables the integration of the EPLAN platform with Siemens’ PLM system Teamcenter. This interface ensures a seamless data flow between engineering and production, increasing process transparency and efficiency in product development.
Functional Scope of the Siemens Teamcenter Connector for EPLAN
The connector simplifies collaboration between EPLAN and Teamcenter by providing robust features for consistent data handling:
- Project Management: Direct execution of project creation, check-in/check-out, and version updates from within the EPLAN interface, including version and revision control.
- BOM Management: Structured and custom bill-of-materials (BOM) generation and transfer from EPLAN to Teamcenter.
- Part and Article Synchronization: Bidirectional synchronization of article master data between EPLAN’s part management and Teamcenter ensures data consistency and integrity.
- Document Management: Export of EPLAN project data to neutral formats such as PDF or STEP, with structured storage in Teamcenter.
Benefits of Integrating EPLAN with Teamcenter
The integration of EPLAN and Teamcenter offers clear technical and operational advantages:
- Process Efficiency: Eliminates redundant data entry and manual data transfers, reducing error rates and improving throughput in development processes.
- Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration: Shared access to consistent datasets fosters interdisciplinary cooperation between departments.
- Traceability and Documentation: End-to-end tracking of changes and approvals enhances process transparency and audit readiness.
- Accelerated Time-to-Market: Streamlined workflows and harmonized data management enable faster development cycles and product releases.
- Compatibility and Scalability: The integration supports current versions of EPLAN and Teamcenter and is aligned with future system updates.
- Standardization: Networked systems promote consistent working methods across projects, supporting uniform process and quality standards.
The EPLAN–Teamcenter integration establishes a continuous and controlled link between engineering and PLM, contributing to structured, transparent, and efficient product development.
