SPS 2024: Connecting ecosystems. Smarter. 

Securing the future together!

Increasing efficiency and productivity and realising projects faster are maxims of the industry. This can be achieved with powerful partners who understand and improve all value-added processes.

EPLAN, Rittal, Cideon and German Edge Cloud support you with expertise and efficient solutions – each as individual companies, but also with bundled expertise if the requirements make it necessary. By intelligently combining hardware and software, we connect your ecosystems, integrate the process steps of your value chains and unlock decisive potential.  

At SPS 2024 from 12 to 14 November in Nuremberg, in Hall 3C, Stand 321, we will show you solutions that will enable you to work faster and more efficiently – now and in the future. Take the opportunity and let's talk about your requirements, goals and opportunities! 

Discover the EPLAN highlights for the SPS!

Industrial automation in machine, control and switchgear manufacturing

Up to 40 % lower project planning costs!

EPLAN supports you with field-proven solutions for machine, control and switchgear manufacturing. With standardised design processes based on digital engineering data, you benefit from greater efficiency and quality – in engineering, production and assembly as well as in the operation of machines and systems. 

EPLAN Platform 2025
The emphasis is on the latest EPLAN Platform 2025, which delivers enhanced performance and a wider range of benefits across the entire engineering process. Electrical engineers will benefit from more streamlined and efficient schematics creation, while production and service teams will enjoy quicker access to up-to-date, comprehensive information. You can experience the new version of EPLAN in action at the SPS exhibition.

NEW: EPLAN Cable proD for virtual machine cabling 
Another key focus for the mechanical engineering industry, and thus for us in Nuremberg, is machine cabling. With the new EPLAN Cable proD, cabling is efficiently carried out directly on the virtual 3D model – quickly, easily, and with precision. This enables exact cable lengths to be calculated, allowing for the use of pre-assembled cables of the correct length and with a predefined cable route during assembly.

3D-Engineering in control and switchgear manufacturing

More efficiency and faster projects with consistent data

The key to increased productivity in panel building lies in the seamless integration of data. By implementing consistent digitalisation in engineering and ensuring smooth data transfer to production, we unlock greater efficiency throughout the entire process chain. We offer proven software solutions to support you, which we would be delighted to present at the SPS.

Take this opportunity to explore the latest version of EPLAN Pro Panel for 3D control cabinet design, which has a few exciting new features, even for seasoned EPLAN users. Additionally, we will introduce our virtual assistance systems, Smart Mounting and Smart Wiring, designed to guide assembly workers step by step through the assembly and wiring process. Your journey towards automation in panel building begins with the digital twin. Let's embark on this journey together.

Efficient engineering for energy technology

Up to 30 % shorter project lead times!

The energy transition is intensifying the need for swift action across the industry. EPLAN and Rittal are driving the expansion of infrastructure with integrated hardware and software solutions, supporting everything from energy generation and storage to grid expansion and charging stations for e-mobility. The key to success lies in standardisation: EPLAN provides the industry with complete industrial projects as ready-made standards, tailored to your specific needs, significantly speeding up the engineering process. Additionally, digital and interconnected data streamline plant operations for greater efficiency. 

At the SPS exhibition, we will showcase our energy technology solutions. This includes the engineering of a transformer station featuring both medium and low-voltage systems, presented as a standardised industrial project that covers every aspect from design to system operation.
