EPLAN represents “efficient engineering” – standardisation and modularisation via configuration are a decisive step in this direction.The decision to rename the EEC product was driven by the benefits it offers customers: For many years, EPLAN has been offering integrated mechatronic configuration solutions through EEC that can be used to configure components, machines and even complex installation projects. Configuration as a core functionality will now be reflected in the product name. The product is being renamed at the start of SPS IPC Drives to EPLAN Engineering Configuration, or “EEC” for short – the same abbreviation as before. Monheim, 18 November 2014 – Mechatronic configuration is one of the core topics within the spectrum of services of EPLAN Engineering Center.

The launch at SPS IPC Drives will also introduce revised functionalities and the version number now matches that of the EPLAN Platform. EPLAN Engineering Center is becoming EPLAN Engineering Configuration: the new name is being introduced with Version 2.4 and demonstrates that configuration is a core function of EPLAN’s mechatronic engineering solutions.
