Electrical Engineering
Use EPLAN Pro Panel Professional to comprehensively implement your electrical engineering designs in both 2D and 3D.
Service and Maintenance
Success for industrial companies is strongly related to their work in maintenance and servicing, which prevents machine and system failures and enables the best possible utilisation and availability of plant systems over their entire service life. EPLAN offers you integrated solutions for digitising your processes.
Building Automation
To ensure cost-effective engineering processes, architects, engineers, planning offices and construction companies need a transparent foundation of information and efficient digital tools. EPLAN solutions make it possible for you to work in an interdisciplinary way with integrated data for building automation.
Fluid Power Engineering
EPLAN Pro Panel Professional is your solution for designing and building hydraulic and pneumatic systems for the 3D engineering of climate control systems in control cabinets. Use designs created in EPLAN Fluid – including components and connections – to create 3D mounting layouts in EPLAN Pro Panel.
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.
Machinery and Plant Construction
The daily ordering business is getting much faster and time pressures are rising, no least due to international competitors. At the same time, customers are demanding increasingly more individualised projects through to mass customisation. EPLAN is here supporting you with integrated engineering solutions along your value chain.
Panel Building
Automate your manufacturing processes – EPLAN Pro Panel Professional provides you with a wide range of data and information, allowing you to optimise your engineering in all aspects of panel building and enclosure manufacturing.
Automotive
Hardly any other industry is facing such enormous upheavals as the automobile industry. Many car companies and automotive suppliers have been relying on the EPLAN’s powerful solutions for years. With our solutions, you can optimise the entire value chain in vehicle manufacturing.
Food and Beverage
EPLAN offers you solutions for engineering the control systems of machines and plant systems, supporting you in the creation, production, further processing and packaging of agricultural products into foods and beverages.
Energy
Code compliance, ensuring supply, optimising load distribution: the energy sector has big challenges to face. EPLAN offers you optimal solutions for a broad field of applications from energy management to plant system engineering.
Maritime
Digitalisation, standardisation and automation are all trends that no industrial sector can evade right now. This also holds true for the maritime industry. Integrated electrical engineering design and powerful ECAD software from EPLAN can significantly advance automation at your company.
Your Software Solution for Panel Building and Switchgear Systems
You can also comprehensively optimise manufacturing processes in panel building and switchgear system engineering with EPLAN Pro Panel Professional. A myriad of data and information are automatically provided for manufacturing – from component labelling to supporting the manual wiring process.
Using EPLAN Pro Panel Professional, you can realise a wide variety of engineering tasks with just one piece of software solution: from creating schematics and planning mounting layouts in 3D to the virtual routing of electrical and fluid power connections.
You provide ordering data and comprehensive manufacturing documentation for automated control cabinet production. Information for drilling patterns, threading or cut-outs amongst other things can be used directly in your NC processing machines.
You shorten throughput times and save costs in panel building and switchgear system engineering – at planned high quality. With EPLAN Pro Panel Professional, you operate profitably from mass customisation production through to volume production.
With the EPLAN API development environment the doors to your individual further development of EPLAN Electric P8, EPLAN Fluid, EPLAN Preplanning and EPLAN Pro Panel are wide open. The development environment offers you an efficient possibility to implement your own required functionalities or automatic functions. With this individual customization in the core of EPLAN you can optimize your engineering workflow specifically.
Faster task-based processes
In the productive phase the EPLAN products can be integrated fully into your individual workflow through the API Runtime licenses. Use of the overall solution is thus facilitated for all participants. Processing times, planning errors and training times can be reduced. Users of other programs can use EPLAN functions and data without having to leave their original work environment. Results are thus available faster and more economically.

Control Cabinet Engineering 4.0 Study
Is it worth introducing automation for manufacturing and engineering processes in panel building? You’d better believe it. The “Control Cabinet Manufacturing 4.0” study by the Institute for Control Engineering of Machine Tools and Manufacturing Units (ISW) of the University of Stuttgart proves it. The study is available exclusively from EPLAN. Take advantage of this advanced knowledge for 3D layout designs and wiring through to engineering design.
43 % Efficiency Increases
The companies surveyed for the study saw this potential when using an integrated software solution in engineering, for example EPLAN Pro Panel Professional.
90 % Less Time Expenditures
Less time expenditures can be achieved for electrical assembly if a digital control cabinet model is used to pre-assemble the terminals.
44 % Time and Cost Savings
Functional engineering in panel building can create this much time and cost savings. More information is available from the “Control Cabinet Manufacturing 4.0” study.
