EPLAN and Dassault Systèmes Collaborate to Support Clients

EPLAN is integrating its electrical engineering and fluid-power technology solutions with Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform to support the workflows of clients who are common to both companies.

Under the terms of the agreement signed by Dassault Systèmes managing director for Central Europe, Dominic Kurtaz and EPLAN & Cideon CEO, Sebastian Seitz, the partners will contribute their expertise to enable the development of end-to-end digital development processes.

Seitz explains: “With the bidirectional interface between the EPLAN Platform and the Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE platform, we’re increasing the process efficiencies of our common clients.

When
all systems are connected bidirectionally – ECAD, ERP and PDM, for example, users can operate in a truly interdisciplinary manner and much more efficiently.”

A joint demonstration environment is also planned on the Engineering Collaboration Network (www.ecn-online.com) with videos and sample data in the PLM cloud environment, as well as joint interaction on customer projects.

The interaction of EPLAN and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform will further automate control over data management processes for electrical engineering and fluid-power engineering, syncronising access to key manufacturing data used for works orders including lists of components and bills of materials.

For users of both platforms, automating routine processes makes everyday work even easier – common
operations such as searching for, finding and creating projects, checking in or out of them, or exporting
EPLAN project pages into neutral formats will become more efficient by using the interface.
