Accelerate Manufacturing with Automation
Transform your panel shop from manual, time-intensive processes to a high-efficiency, automated operation. With Eplan, panel builders dramatically reduce production time and unlock scalable growth.
Real-world results speak volumes: Engineering Specialists cut mechanical processing from a full day to just one hour, while Usemco scaled output from 100 to nearly 700 panels annually using Eplan alongside Rittal Automation Systems. R&D Specialties achieved a 40% reduction in labor costs by digitally driving manufacturing equipment with Eplan Pro Panel.
The bottom line: faster builds, lower labor costs, and the ability to increase throughput without increasing headcount.
Unlock End-to-End Efficiency with a Digital Twin
Eplan enables panel builders to create a complete digital twin of every control cabinet—bridging engineering and production like never before.
By combining Eplan Electric P8 for schematics and Eplan Pro Panel for 3D layout, you generate a single, unified data model that seamlessly powers downstream manufacturing—from automated wire routing and labeling to CNC machining. This eliminates manual data re-entry, reduces errors, and ensures consistency across the entire process.
With Eplan Smart Production, even less-experienced workers can assemble panels faster and more accurately, guided step-by-step with digital instructions—boosting productivity by up to 38%.
The result: fewer errors, faster builds, and a smarter, more agile workforce.
Overcome the Skilled Labor Shortage
Panel builders across the industry are struggling to find experienced professionals — and it's holding back growth. Eplan directly addresses this by making less experienced workers productive. With tools like Eplan Smart Production, step-by-step 3D visual instructions guide shop floor workers through complex mounting and wiring tasks, so even inexperienced employees can build panels safely and accurately. Production-ready documentation means specialists can focus on complex tasks while newer team members handle individual work steps with confidence.
The result: panel builders can grow their workforce and output without being bottlenecked by a shrinking talent pool.

“I have seen firsthand the pressures machine builders face. Machine builders can’t afford to rely on yesterday’s methods to solve today’s challenges. With shrinking timelines, rising complexity, and a shortage of skilled labor, the answer is digitization. By connecting engineering to manufacturing, automating designs, and generating exact outputs like cable lengths, we help builders do more with less today, while preparing for tomorrow’s demands.”
