SwitchLay Interactive
Edit control panel layouts more efficiently in Pro Panel​

Control cabinet layout without unnecessary extra work

Optimize your 3D control cabinet layout directly in Eplan Pro Panel. SwitchLay Interactive helps Eplan ECAD users place components more easily in the layout.

While schematics and BOMs have long been digitized, the 3D layout in the control cabinet still requires considerable manual effort in many projects. This is exactly where SwitchLay Interactive comes in: as an extension for Eplan Pro Panel that makes layout modification processes more efficient and specifically reduces the workload of existing workflows.

Product

SwitchLay Interactive is a plug-in developed specifically for Eplan Pro Panel that enables interactive work on 3D control cabinet layouts. The product is designed specifically for Eplan ECAD users who want to place components more quickly and edit them more efficiently within the layout.

Function

Anyone who has moved devices and components or changed layouts in Eplan Pro Panel knows the effort involved: adjacent elements must be updated consistently, which often requires extensive layout adjustments. SwitchLay Interactive supports this process directly within the Pro Panel environment and significantly reduces the amount of manual rework required.Eplan Partnership

With SwitchLay Interactive, Adalogic offers an extension specifically designed for seamless integration into Eplan Pro Panel. The goal is to provide Eplan ECAD users with an extension that integrates directly into existing Pro Panel workflows and more efficiently supports 3D control cabinet design when making changes or creating variants. The result is not an isolated add-on tool, but a practical plug-in within the familiar Eplan environment.
