Efficient electrical design of filling, packaging, and transport equipment using Eplan.
In the food and beverage industry, production lines are built by combining various equipment such as filling, packaging, conveying, and inspection, which requires flexible responses to shorter delivery times and specification changes in electrical and control design. With Eplan, circuit diagrams, components, and connection information are centrally managed as design data, allowing for the reuse of standard circuits and past design assets. It supports not only electrical design but also fluid design such as pneumatic and hydraulic systems, as well as 3D control panel design, facilitating overall efficiency in equipment design. Additionally, reports such as bill of materials and terminal tables can be generated from design data, reducing transcription and duplicate input. It is also easy to accommodate design changes, making it useful for standardizing designs and improving quality in food manufacturing equipment, which often requires a variety of products and short delivery times, such as filling machines, packaging machines, and conveying equipment.
