EPLAN Platform 2024: Exciting New Features Await Users
At the Hannover Fair in Germany, EPLAN gave a glimpse of the forthcoming software version. The last two versions of the EPLAN platform brought a modernised user interface and better performance for 2D and 3D planning. The announcement of EPLAN Platform 2024 promises even more upgrades to enhance user experience. Here are four new features to anticipate.
Calculation and Comparison of Block Properties
The block properties function enables users to link simple objects, such as motors or circuit breakers, within a circuit diagram. The upcoming Platform 2024 will include a calculation feature that allows for the calculation of different block properties and their comparison. This feature will aid in the determination of protection devices and cable sizes based on defined loads.
Automated Connection of Spare Wires in Machine Wiring
In the current EPLAN platform, machine cabling includes the connection of sensors and actuators in control cabinets. The 2024 version will introduce the automatic connection of spare cores to spare terminals via the cable editor. EPLAN Harness proD will also support the determination of cable lengths for planned machines. The new calculation function for block properties will enable the calculation of voltage drop, among other things.
Optimised Terminal Editor for Easy Management and Testing
The optimised terminal editor will allow for the easy management of terminals, terminal strips, and accessories. Users can easily check terminal strips and view terminal connections directly in the circuit diagram.
Easy Navigation in the 3D Model of the Control Cabinet with EPLAN Pro Panel
The 2024 version of EPLAN Pro Panel will feature a new navigation cube that enables easy navigation through the 3D model of the planned control cabinet. Additionally, users can automatically remove gaps on the DIN rail during construction with the help of the software.
The EPLAN Platform offers software for a variety of engineering disciplines from a single source – and more than just tradition ECAD software. From preplanning to electrical engineering and fluid-power designs, to designing switchgear systems and wire harnesses: with EPLAN, you always have the right tool at hand. The new generation of the EPLAN Platform offers you special added value and new functions that will be continued and expanded in the coming versions of the software.
The EPLAN Platform 2024 revealing new mathematical calculation functions, greater ease-of-use for terminal management, and unprecedented possibilities for navigating through the 3D model of a control cabinet what also facilitates creating the digital twin in EPLAN Pro Panel. Another improvement can be found when dealing with machine cabling in conjunction with EPLAN Harness proD, whereby spare cables can be connected in no time at all moving forward, with just a simple click of the mouse.
EPLAN Electric P8 is a consistent, integrated and fast engineering system for you to plan and design the electrical engineering for machines and plant systems. The software supports a wide variety of engineering methods: from manual creation through to standardised and template-based approaches. The project data, once entered into the schematic, become the foundation for the automated completion of machine and plant system documentation. In short, EPLAN Electric P8 offers you much more than “just” drawing schematics and circuit diagrams.
EPLAN was founded in 1984 and is part of the owner-operated Friedhelm Loh Group. The Friedhelm Loh Group operates worldwide with 12 production sites and 94 international subsidiaries. The entire group employs 11.600 people and generated revenues of around €2,6 billion in 2019. For the 13th time in succession, the family business has won the accolade “Top German Employer” in 2021. In addition, Friedhelm Loh Group was recognized as “Top vocational trainer” according to a study of Deutschland Test and Focus Money.
