EPLAN Engineering Configuration
Your Company Solution for Configuration and Automated Engineering
EPLAN Engineering Configuration (EEC) lets you map your product portfolio into a modular system with interdisciplinary functional units. Using this as a foundation, EEC offers you the possibility of linking configurations and automatically generating engineering documentation.
EEC for Your Fields of Application
Discover EEC’s many varied application fields – including for your industry and engineering disciplines.
Panel Building
As a producer of volume products from machine and plant system manufacturing, EPLAN Engineering Configuration saves you from having to manually create the control cabinet layout. Instead, you generate the digital twin in EPLAN Pro Panel based on a configuration. This solution works independent of industry, no matter if the control cabinet belongs to a machine, is located on a ship, is used in a building or if it’s a LV/MV switchgear system.
Machinery and Plant Construction
With EPLAN Engineering Configuration (EEC), you can realise an integrated and automated engineering workflow in machine building. Utilise the data from an upstream configurator or a database – then you can use EEC to generate schematics, fluid power documentation, 3D control cabinet assemblies, bills of materials and further manufacturing documentation.
Component Manufacturer
Efficient engineering requires a standardised and error-free database. With the EPLAN Data Portal, you have access to a vast number of high-quality device and component data from an ever-growing pool of manufacturers. The simple transfer of the available component data into EPLAN documentation is via drag and drop, which increases the quality of your machine and plant documentation.
Configuration
The term automated engineering combines configuration with engineering. In practice, this means automating engineering processes, integrating these processes and connecting them with configuration processes in sales, order processing and directly to engineering. EPLAN offers you solutions for implementing automated engineering in your company.
Automation Technology
Automation technology is used in all areas of technology for engineering machines and plant systems. With the solutions from EPLAN, you have an enormous range of functions at your fingertips for this discipline.
One System for Everything: Interdisciplinary Working, Automated Documentation
EEC’s interdisciplinary approach integrates sales, order processing, mechanical, electrical and control technology engineering as well as manufacturing and documentation. For optimal results, connect EEC with an upstream configurator, for instance on your homepage. This will enable you to generate engineering and manufacturing documentation at the click of a mouse – in both 2D and 3D.
EEC is also compatible with your company structures – working with you, we put together solutions that are perfectly tailored to your requirements. EPLAN supports you with the individual implementation steps by drawing on our experience from a myriad of successfully realised projects.
EPLAN Engineering Configuration can be seamlessly integrated into existing system structures and enables continuous workflows.
Reap the benefits of practical product structuring and the automated re-use of templates in engineering.
The individual parameterisation of the templates covers a high degree of variance and enables you to realise mass customisation projects.

Instrumentation and control engineering in HVAC systems
Good things sometimes come from chance events. Employees from AL-KO THERM GMBH were visiting an EPLAN stand at a trade fair and by chance came across EPLAN Engineering Configuration (EEC) – the system that enables simple and consistent configuration of mechatronics systems. They now use EEC worldwide as a configurator and benefit from significantly simpler instrumentation and control (I&C) engineering.
