Eplan Preplanning

Technical preplanning goes digital for electrical design projects

Eplan Preplanning enables you to save engineering data early in the preplanning process.

Eplan Preplanning: Digitalized planning – right from the start

Eplan Preplanning enables you to save engineering data early in the preplanning process. This data can include actuators and sensors for a plant system or machine.

You can import data from external tabular sources and also enter plant system or machine overviews and graphical process and instrumentation diagrams. This allows you to quickly generate initial data sheets or specifications for materials procurement. You can also access the data collected in Eplan Preplanning to use in downstream planning phases in engineering.

With Eplan Preplanning, you can carry out initial planning tasks for process automation or automation technology on Eplan Platform. Our Platform forms the basis for an integrated engineering environment.

Your added value for process automation

Structured data collection

Information about machines or plant systems as well as process and instrumentation data can be collected and managed in a structured way. This helps ensures clarity and transparency, even for complex systems.

External sources taken into account

Import data from external tabular sources and seamlessly process it in Eplan Preplanning. The data can then easily be transferred for use in detail planning.

Information for materials procurement

Quickly create initial data sheets or specifications so that materials procurement can get off to a structured start in the preplanning phase.

Clear visualization

Enter graphical representations of plant systems or machine overviews as well as process and instrumentation diagrams. The clear visualization of your first planning steps will be carried over into downstream project phases.

Basic preplanning data

Plan the basic information early in the process such as signal data, piping data or wiring data for better orientation within the project.

Automation planning

You can also use Eplan Preplanning software as a solution for building automation, including basic automation design for climate control systems.

That's how our customers benefit from working with Eplan

"What we found particularly exciting about the Eplan platform was that we can also integrate the actual production process into the planning. Eplan gave us the certainty that the solution was not fully developed the minute the circuit diagram was finished."

Global Hydro story

“In addition to the considerable reduction in effort required, we also benefit from complete data continuity. Both help us to keep costs competitively low while project quality remains very high.”

G. Klampfer story

"Thanks to Eplan Preplanning, we have integrated the technological and electrical schematics into a single unit. The two have come together.“

Farmet story

“We simply have more information available for our planning work than our competitors on the market and can therefore design using a high degree of automation.“
