Eplan - PRO.FILE connector

14/03/2017

The solid integration between EPLAN and PRO.FILE

Integrating E-CAD with PDM and / or PLM is a challenge for an increasing number of companies for which they are looking for a solution.

Discover the added value of the EPLAN - PRO.FILE connector:

  • Time and cost savings: Extensive database where organizing and finding data becomes very easy
  • High-quality integration: all EPLAN objects become part of the work processes and Product Lifecycle
  • No duplications: increase in reuse where references (left) are used instead of duplicates
  • Reliable data: the meta (master) data of components / articles is always automatically synchronous and up to date with the state of affairs in PLM and ERP
  • Automation: Parts lists, connection lists, schematic drawings are available in PLM upon release
  • Transparency: All information available for all departments

    An answer to challenges

    Perhaps your organization has had a need to integrate control schemes with company-wide processes for years? Do you encounter wrong versions and revisions of your diagrams, drawings, data sheets, terminal and connection lists in your organization? Are there errors in the manually entered parts lists? Are long lead items available for purchase too late?

    Fulfilling this need is now possible thanks to the link between Eplan and the PDM / PLM system PRO.FILE.

    PRO.FILE works company-wide with revision / version management, so everyone works with the latest drawings and diagrams. For example, you can find data faster and work on projects with several employees simultaneously. PRO.FILE is the PLM answer to the management of your document flows and product data. PLM Xpert likes to accept challenges in the management of data from companies in the electronic manufacturing industry. Have you become enthusiastic about the link? PRO.FILE can do much more together with EPLAN.

    The Eplan - PRO.FILE connector offers a standardized integration of electrical engineering in the PLM environment of PRO.FILE

    The result is a seamless part and BOM management workflow, as well as product and project data management throughout the life cycle. Opening, saving and revising data in projects is coordinated from PRO.FILE. It is important for the engineer that BOM management is consistent with PRO.FILE. Bills of materials, but also production documents, are automatically created and stored in PRO.FILE. Very important for electrical engineers: catalog parts and the classification can also synchronize bidirectionally. This ensures a uniform quality of the article master data of the electrical components. The verification and management of rights is provided in the EPLAN - PRO.FILE Connector. Standardized, company-specific release processes ensure an efficient workflow.
