EPLAN Harness proD Studio 2.5 EPLAN Software & Service GmbH & Co., a provider software for global engineering solutions, has released 2.5 version of EPLAN Platform P8. The new version helps you manage engineering data consistently from concept design, through detailed engineering all the way to manufacturing and service. The focus lies on decreasing processing time and simple management. EPLAN Harness proD is a modern 3D software system for the efficient design and documentation of cable harnesses. The system's strengths lie in the automated steps involved, from importing the wiring lists from the EPLAN Platform to routing the cables and generating the documentation and 2D nail board drawings. The ability to take over mechanically relevant information from various MCAD systems and the ECAD connection information means that EPLAN Harness proD has the potential to be seamlessly integrated into PDM environments. This allows for the design of the cable harness even when there is no mechanical prototype available. In brief: development times are reduced, productivity increases and project quality is improved on a continuous basis.
