Anyone here intergrate Eplan Pro Panel into their SolidWorks or other 3d MCAD process? Our company has decided to standardize on Eplan Pro Panel for controller cabinet assembly designs. The sheetmetal enclosure parts are designed in SolidWorks, then imported into Eplan. There its assembled with the internal electrical components and wired up. We still need the asembly in SolidWorks for later downstream assemblies.
Options as I see it:
- Export Eplan 3d model to STEP and import to SolidWorks. And hope refernces don’t break on each revision. We expect a lot of revisions.
- Build the assembly over but simplified and maintain separately for each revision.
