Product picture galleryNews from the software sector
The IT sector is playing an increasingly important role in automation, which is also increasing the demand for software in companies. Computer&AUTOMATION presents the latest product innovations in this segment in a series of pictures.
With Smart Wiring Application, Eplan is presenting software that visualizes the wiring and provides data for production in digital form, such as source/destination description, connection point designation, cross-section, color, wire length, end treatment or exact installation paths. This eliminates the need for time-consuming and error-prone wiring based on the circuit diagram. The digital representation references the 3D layout of the virtual model in Eplan Pro Panel. However, the new application can also be used without a 3D layout: For example, Excel lists with connection information can be read in. A menu describes each connection; this information is supplemented by the visualization of the equipment including connection points and the planned routing paths of the wires in the control cabinet. The software provides information about the required diameter of a wire, the color to be used and the defined final treatment - crimped or ultrasonically welded, for example. It also indicates whether a wire belongs to a bundle.
