PDM/Big Data

a. Networking with neighbouring engineering disciplines: Mechatronics

b. Networking along the value chain across the whole life cycle: Integrated value chain

c. Combination with the relevant product data: PDM/Big Data

� Endress + Hauser Configurator integrated into EPLAN data portal

� Generation of EPLAN data with the EEC (commercial data, macros, data sheets


Web-based product configuration

Configuration of complex component combinations can be web-based and automated

Summary "Software Driven Engineering 4.0":

1. Complete end-to-end virtual product development with full virtual prototyping

2. High level of flexibility via building blocks and st andardization even for „unit of one“

3. Cross-manufacturer and cross-system consistency

4. Use of engineering data throughout complete product life cycle – design to service

5. Ever increasing intelligence via network and self-le arning and self-communicating systems
