The SOFIA research aircraft has now been operating for 8 years, enabling close observation of space by recording infrared radiation. The complex electrical engineering of this unique telescope has so far been available only on paper and in the form of PDF documents. The team of engineers and technicians at the German SOFIA Institute (DSI) at the University of Stuttgart are now using an EPLAN solution, precisely tailored to the special requirements of fundamental astronomical research.
EPLAN Electric P8 supports your electrical controls design for machines and plants in a consistent, integrated and fast engineering system. The software supports a variety of engineering methods, from manual creation to standardised, template-based work. Once captured in the schematics, the project data forms the foundation for the automated creation of machine and plant documentation.
AutoCAD Electrical is a familiar choice for most designers to utilize in the automation controls industry. However, EPLAN Electric is a computer-aided drafting program that has seen a steady increase in recent years as some US manufacturing leaders are mandating its use for electrical and controls.
EPLAN Electric P8 is designed to be a consistent and flexible software that allows for intelligent design and drawing capabilities. Compared to AutoCAD, EPLAN P8 is a more convenient solution, offering features such as increased ease of running reports like the bill of materials (BOM). EPLAN P8 can help customers improve their productivity and optimize their processes, with the added benefit of being backed by a data portal.
We regularly have dozens of tier-two suppliers and systems integrators turn to us for help with EPLAN controls design. AMT has completed hundreds of electrical designs with this platform for our customers, each of these designs were unique to their project.
ePLAN - for over 20 years, the name has been synonymous with powerful CAE software which supports electrical engineering. Before the new CAE dimension - ePLAN Electric P8 - was introduced in 2006, which today represents the technology standard, users in electrical design worldwide worked with two different systems from ePLAN Software & Service.
Automatically generated reports consisting of terminal and wire schematics, as well as bills of materials (BOM), are then ready to be used in further stages of the project. Moreover, users can build schematics in many languages with support for worldwide design standards, and change bulk data with the "Search and Replace" and "Edit in Excel" features.
There are a bunch of decent tools out there that offer the same array of services as EPLAN Electric P8. And it can sure get confusing to choose the best from the lot. Luckily, we've got you covered with our curated lists of alternative tools to suit your unique work needs, complete with features and pricing.
