Cross-departmental cooperation between mechanical engineering, electrical/controls engineering and IT/software engineering. This is what Syngineer is. Direct integration in engineering software makes the exchange of data child’s play. Syngineer automatically provides colleagues with precisely the information they need to complete their tasks. The effort previously required for coordination is no longer necessary which saves time, reduces errors and results in projects being completed with greater speed and greater professionalism.

With EPLAN Cogineer users can generate electrical and fluid power schematics at the push of a button – without requiring expert knowledge, specialist programming ability or extensive training. EPLAN Cogineer gives users flexibility in the way they work, no matter whether they take a function-based or machine-based approach. Individual design methods will not require modification, it will just become much faster. The system can be used instantly by EPLAN Platform customers. Cogineer is divided into two parts: Designer and Project Builder. The latter is a declarative interface that is automatically created on the basis of configuration variables.

The EPLAN Engineering Configuration (EEC) is our mechatronics solution and acts as the control center that realizes a bridge between mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, control technology and documentation. In practice every machine or every planned product respectively is first divided into functional units. All the software and hardware information can be generated from a modular unit. This includes, for example electrical schematics, sensor / actuator lists, bills of materials, mechanical drawings, technical descriptions or also the PLC software. Existing systems are integrated in the EEC and continue to fulfill their typical function.

EPLAN Electric P8 is a CAE system with unlimited possibilities for project planning, documentation, and management of automation projects. With your choice of graphical or object orientation as well as refined platform technology, this high-end system is breaking new ground in electrical engineering. Its functional scope and uniform data basis with fluid / EI&C technology and enclosure manufacturing support interdisciplinary working on the basis of the EPLAN Platform. Data from earlier planning phases can simply be imported using interfaces like ODBC, XML, or Excel – for perfect integration.

EPLAN Fluid allows fluid-specific engineering with automated documentation. Simple handling, numerous check functions and standards support accelerate designing. In comparison to conventional, usually CAD-based systems EPLAN Fluid contains unique logic functions and automatic functions. Through autoconnecting all the connections are generated automatically, can have logic properties assigned to them and are evaluated. So that you have an overview of all the components including all the small parts such as connecting pieces, hoses or pipes.
