Exchanging parts in a control cabinet

Manufacturers change their products, and you change your projects. It can be laborious when working on a control cabinet, but EPLAN Pro Panel version 2.8 simplifies the process. In the layout navigator, you can exchange parts without deleting the existing part placement from the original control cabinet.


And it’s not a problem if the new cabinet part has several macro variants: You simply select one of the variants before the exchange ( for example, control cabinet with door hinges on the right or left). After part selection, the “select macro variant” dialogue opens automatically.


Different types of constructions for a control cabinet can be saved as variants of a 3D macro in the master data and, if needed, exchanged in a positioned control cabinet via a part swap. It's very easy.

New geometries for component placement

Assembly lines enable you to place 3D objects on non-variable-length components, in a similar manner as on mounting rails. They have a definable alignment, adopted from a surface or by inputting a rotation angle.


This also makes assembly lines suited to placing 3D objects on inclined surfaces, or in non-orthogonal mounting positions. The EPLAN Platform offers the appropriate support: You can place 3D objects in variable positions, just like on actual mounting rails, by using assembly lines.


The spectrum of usable geometries for placing components is therefore substantially expanded. This gives your panel layout “space to breathe” and will certainly impress you.

Everything in one solution – Design Engineering in 3D

Using EPLAN Pro Panel Professional, you can realise a wide variety of engineering tasks with just one piece of software solution: from creating schematics and planning mounting layouts in 3D to the virtual routing of electrical and fluid power connections.

Integrated control cabinet engineering: Data for manufacturing

You provide ordering data and comprehensive manufacturing documentation for automated control cabinet production. Information for drilling patterns, threading or cut-outs amongst other things can be used directly in your NC processing machines.

Profitable from mass customization to volume production

You shorten throughput times and save costs in panel building and switchgear system engineering – at planned high quality. With EPLAN Pro Panel Professional, you operate profitably from mass customisation production through to volume production.

EPLAN Application Programming Interface (API)

With the EPLAN API development environment the doors to your individual further development of EPLAN Electric P8, EPLAN Fluid, EPLAN Preplanning and EPLAN Pro Panel are wide open. The development environment offers you an efficient possibility to implement your own required functionalities or automatic functions. With this individual customization in the core of EPLAN you can optimize your engineering workflow specifically.
Faster task-based processes
  • In the productive phase the EPLAN products can be integrated fully into your individual workflow through the API Runtime licenses. Use of the overall solution is thus facilitated for all participants. Processing times, planning errors and training times can be reduced. Users of other programs can use EPLAN functions and data without having to leave their original work environment. Results are thus available faster and more economically.
