Eplan - all the information at a glance

Digital documentation, smooth operations

Eplan supports you and your suppliers in creating high-quality, always up-to-date documentation for your automation systems. The foundation for uninterrupted operations is already being created during the electrical design phase of your plant systems.

Your workflow

Be honest: Does inadequate documentation add to an increase in downtime?

Does this ring a bell? Everything is fine as long as the plant systems are running. But when a malfunction occurs, things get hectic: What exactly is the cause? How can our technician find the components that have to be replaced in hundreds, or even thousands of schematics pages – particularly if the documentation isn’t up to date?

PDF documents can almost be as confusing as binders full of printed schematics with sticky notes. So production is at a standstill, even though every unplanned downtime costs cold, hard cash!
