Description

EPLAN Electric P8 serves as a cohesive, efficient, and integrated engineering solution designed to facilitate the planning and design of electrical systems for machinery and industrial plants. This advanced software enables users to utilize 2D computer-aided engineering alongside a diverse array of engineering techniques, which range from manual drafting to standardized and template-driven methods. Once the project data is input into the schematic, it lays the groundwork for the automated generation of comprehensive documentation related to machines and plant systems. Essentially, EPLAN Electric P8 provides far more than merely creating schematics and circuit diagrams; it also automates the production of in-depth evaluations that are pivotal for project documentation, available either continuously or compiled post-project as needed. Furthermore, this software ensures that subsequent process phases receive all critical information derived from the engineering process, encompassing everything from initial planning through to manufacturing, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance and repairs. Ultimately, EPLAN Electric P8 streamlines the entire engineering workflow, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

Description

At WSCAD, we have been developing electrical CAD solutions for over 30 years. Customers include small to medium-sized companies, international corporations, and engineering service providers in the machine-building, panel manufacturing, and building automation industries. WSCAD software is used by over 40,000 electrical engineers as their electrical CAD solution. The software is based on one core platform that covers six engineering disciplines: Electrical Engineering, Cabinet Engineering, Piping and Instrumentation, Fluid Engineering, Building Automation and Electrical Installation. Any change made to a component in one discipline is instantly reflected in all other disciplines, saving time and improving quality. WSCAD ELECTRIX – our most powerful electrical CAD – is our brand-new offering. No matter if you are designing piping & instrumentation diagrams, fluid power or electrical schematics, cabinet engineering, building automation or electrical installation – WSCAD is the right tool for you. The new ELECTRIX features a fully new design engine (editor) and incorporates compatibility with standard formats such as DXF/DWG, as well as modern technologies such as augmented reality, multi-threading, and automation.
