Eplan has become an official Siemens PLM Solution Partner. As part of this partnership, the companies have developed a future-proof integration of the Eplan platform into the Teamcenter PLM environment.

Maximilian Brandl, chairman of the executive board of Eplan, said: “The integration of the Eplan platform into Teamcenter opens up lots of doors for us in the growing PLM solutions market. Our joint customers can also benefit hugely from this increased consistency.”

Urban August, senior vice president and managing director of Siemens PLM Software, added: “The integration of Eplan into Teamcenter allows our customers to optimise interdisciplinary cooperation and use Teamcenter as a consistent platform for all those involved in the product life cycle.”

Electrical design is considered an important element of the product creation process. Eplan has developed a universal module in order to integrate the Eplan platform into PLM systems. The Teamcenter integration unit linked to this module now embeds the Eplan platform solutions seamlessly into the PLM environment. This makes electrical engineering part of the digital product model. This allows companies to achieve comprehensive product lifecycle management across all disciplines.

The integrated working method increases data consistency not only in the product development process, but also throughout the product lifecycle.
