As part of this platform, Eplan Electric P8 combines the data for the electrical hardware planning and control technology as well as the associated comprehensive documentation. This, in turn, leads to considerable reductions in development and commissioning times for plants and systems. This automatic data exchange prevents time-consuming and costly inquiries. Here is one specific use scenario: an electrical engineer creates a wiring diagram and with a click of the mouse sends the information for the I/O addresses and function texts (as examples) to the PLC programmer, who is programming GX Works2 controls. This enables reductions in development costs of more than 50 percent for joint customers. The Eplan Platform and GX Works2, Mitsubishi Electric´s programming software for their PLCs of the MELSEC Series, are now linked via a new interface.
The development departments at Mitsubishi Electric and Eplan are working closely together in order to realize the optimal integration of electrical engineering and PLC programming. "The project quality and data consistency increases through the integration with GX Works2 and at the same time, cost and development time of our mutual customer will be reduced." says Hartmut Pütz, President of Mitsubishi Electric´s Factory Automation - European Business Group. Through the Alliance, they are able to further increase project quality and data consistency for users. Yet Mitsubishi Electric Europe and Eplan to continue strive for more as partners. OctoTransferring data from electrical engineering directly into PLC programming - this is now state-of-the-art technology with the integration of Eplan Electric P8 and GX Works2. The integration of Eplan Electric P8 and GX Works2 allows transferring data from electrical engineering directly into PLC programming.
