iPhone and iPad app for Eplan Data Portal

June 17, 2013 11:17 am

New Eplan Data Portal app, which is available in two languages on iTunes, allows users to access over 230,000 components in the portal, search and select mobile devices and components. The intelligent basket transfers the data collected into the original Eplan project, unless the customer has a software service contract.
Mobile applications for iPads and smartphones are in fashion. After all, production is getting more flexible all the time. Solution provider Eplan has now developed a free data portal app for iPhone and iPad which will be online for the Hannover Messe. It will allow users to select components on a mobile basis, i.e. directly from the machine or plant. Extensive filter options make finding the right component for ser-vice or maintenance quicker and easier. If components need to be replaced, they can be selected directly in the app ‘on site’. If a manufacturer has removed the item from the range, a successor item can be found quickly and easily. Once in the basket, the part is ready and can be transferred directly to the project at the office. This ensures that the documentation reflects the machine’s ‘as-built’ status and everything fits together logically. The plant and project documentation are consistent and seamless.
Configuration with extra convenienceThe parts data provide significant added  value even at the configuration stage. The Eplan Data Portal also provides logic information, i.e. enclosure macros or 3D macros for enclosure construction. One of the real benefits for app users is the 3D data viewer. As of now, components can be viewed conveniently from all sides using fingertip controls on a touch screen.
