E3.panel – Documentation and design of electrical control panels
Zuken’s E³.series is used for documenting and detailing electrical and fluid design projects. Its flexibility supports the entire process from definition and design, through manufacturing and maintenance. Its unique object-oriented architecture ensures all stages of the design are fully synchronized. E3.panel enables full documentation of control panels while the built-in design rule checks prevent errors from entering the manufacturing phase. E3.panel+ is an add-on to E3.panel that provides automatic wiring within the panel and additional manufacturing capabilities.
Working in either two or three dimensions, E3.panel is completely integrated with E3.schematic and E3.cable. Changes made in the panel or schematic are immediately reflected across both and users can easily navigate between the two. Simple slot and mount functionality means electrical engineers do not need to use complex 3D MCAD systems.
