EPLAN Engineering Configuration

Your Company Solution for Configuration and Automated Engineering

EPLAN Engineering Configuration (EEC) lets you map your product portfolio into a modular system with interdisciplinary functional units. Using this as a foundation, EEC offers you the possibility of linking configurations and automatically generating engineering documentation.

Disciplines and industries

EEC for Your Fields of Application

Discover EEC’s many varied application fields – including for your industry and engineering disciplines.

Panel Building

As a producer of volume products from machine and plant system manufacturing, EPLAN Engineering Configuration saves you from having to manually create the control cabinet layout. Instead, you generate the digital twin in EPLAN Pro Panel based on a configuration. This solution works independent of industry, no matter if the control cabinet belongs to a machine, is located on a ship, is used in a building or if it’s a LV/MV switchgear system.

Machinery and Plant Construction

With EPLAN Engineering Configuration (EEC), you can realise an integrated and automated engineering workflow in machine building. Utilise the data from an upstream configurator or a database – then you can use EEC to generate schematics, fluid power documentation, 3D control cabinet assemblies, bills of materials and further manufacturing documentation.

Component Manufacturer

Efficient engineering requires a standardised and error-free database. With the EPLAN Data Portal, you have access to a vast number of high-quality device and component data from an ever-growing pool of manufacturers. The simple transfer of the available component data into EPLAN documentation is via drag and drop, which increases the quality of your machine and plant documentation.

Configuration

The term automated engineering combines configuration with engineering. In practice, this means automating engineering processes, integrating these processes and connecting them with configuration processes in sales, order processing and directly to engineering. EPLAN offers you solutions for implementing automated engineering in your company.

Automation Technology

Automation technology is used in all areas of technology for engineering machines and plant systems. With the solutions from EPLAN, you have an enormous range of functions at your fingertips for this discipline.

Added value & features

One System for Everything: Interdisciplinary Working, Automated Documentation

EEC’s interdisciplinary approach integrates sales, order processing, mechanical, electrical and control technology engineering as well as manufacturing and documentation. For optimal results, connect EEC with an upstream configurator, for instance on your homepage. This will enable you to generate engineering and manufacturing documentation at the click of a mouse – in both 2D and 3D.

Automated Engineering Tailored to Your Requirements

EEC is also compatible with your company structures – working with you, we put together solutions that are perfectly tailored to your requirements. EPLAN supports you with the individual implementation steps by drawing on our experience from a myriad of successfully realised projects.

Continuous Workflows for Continuous Configuration

EPLAN Engineering Configuration can be seamlessly integrated into existing system structures and enables continuous workflows.

Re-Using Data for Automated Documentation

Reap the benefits of practical product structuring and the automated re-use of templates in engineering.

High Variance

The individual parameterisation of the templates covers a high degree of variance and enables you to realise mass customisation projects.
