Unlocking a Seamless Integration: Eplan and Rockwell Automation’s Studio 5000 Explained

Unlocking a Seamless Integration: Eplan and Rockwell Automation’s Studio 5000 Explained1

If you’ve ever gone back and forth between electrical schematics and controller configuration wondering, “Why don’t these two things just talk to each other?”—you’re not alone. Most automation and controls engineers have felt that pain. Duplicate data entry, mismatched device lists, last‑minute cabinet changes…it all adds up.

That’s exactly why we’re working with Rockwell Automation to host a webinar showing how Eplan Electric P8 and Studio 5000 Logix Designer v38 now integrate in a way that makes your life easier. If you work with Logix-based controllers in any cabinet-building environment, this is a game-changing workflow upgrade.

What Makes This Integration So Useful?

The magic happens through the new Synchronize AML/RDF dialog in Studio 5000 Logix Designer v38. It gives you a clean, straightforward way to exchange device data with Eplan. Even better—it highlights changes, shows what’s new or mismatched, and lets you approve updates with confidence.

No hunting through spreadsheets. No guessing which file is the “real” one.
Just a single source of truth.

And once your design is aligned? You can take the next step: export your power data into Emulate3D to speed up validation and tighten your Rockwell Automation ecosystem even more.

Here’s What You’ll Learn

A solid understanding of what Eplan Electric P8 actually does and how it complements Studio 5000.
If you’ve heard of Eplan but haven’t worked with it directly, this will fill in the blanks.
A clear look at how AML (IEC 62714) streamlines standardized data exchange.
You’ll see why AML matters and how it keeps designs consistent across platforms.
A tour of the Synchronize AML/RDF dialog in Studio 5000 v38.
We’ll show how it tracks device changes and helps you manage updates with far less hassle.
Practical benefits of unified data: fewer errors, faster commissioning, easier maintenance.
This isn’t theory; it’s real time saved and headaches avoided.
A peek at how this integration sets you up for virtual cabinet testing in Emulate3D.
Think of it as tightening the digital thread from design to simulation.
