All of the design work, from the determination of concept requirements to the detailed preparation of the system documentation, is critical to detail planning. All of the disciplines involved, such as mechanical engineering, instrumentation and control engineering, fluid engineering, electrical engineering and software planning contribute their input so as to safeguard product functionality defined in the pre-design stage.
In addition to the implementation of the required functions in individual disciplines, the optimal system/machine configuration is worked out from a comprehensive information flow between disciplines. Qualitatively high and innovative results are achieved by early, continuous comparison across disciplines.
 Fluid engineering / EPLAN Fluid
- Increased efficiency by using pre-planning data (advance bill of materials)
- Engineering tools tailored to fluid design
- Workflow with electrical design
- Direct use of component catalogues (e.g. Festo)
- Integration of mechanical design data (overviews, etc.)
Mechanical engineering / Autodesk Inventor - Integrated solution for the design of mechanical product lines
- Methodology for the acceleration of manufacturing and design processes
- Data exchange with suppliers and customers
Electrical engineering / EPLAN Electric P8, EPLAN Cabinet and Instrumentation & control engineering / EPLAN PPE - Deep process integration by direct processing of pre-planning data
- Data transfer from mechanical and process technology
- Data transfer from commercial systems
- No additional time costs, savings in the process as a whole
- More optimisation within the system (e.g. convenient mass data processing)
- Integrated engineering with fluid design and measurement and control technology
- Documentation for manufacturing and assembly at the touch of a button
- Revision control for consistent change tracking
