The digitalization of electrical panel building is changing the way we work. Where previously hundreds of pages of paper electrical schematics were needed, we now use one computer screen to get the job done. This move to digital schematics not only means a more efficient and accurate work process, but also a sustainable workplace that is better for the environment.
Read on and discover the various advantages of the digitalization of electrical panel building.
The benefits of digitalization for panel builders
For our panel builders, working with digital diagrams takes some getting used to. Fortunately, it brings them several benefits:
- Zooming in on details: digital diagrams allow panels builders to zoom in on the smallest details, such as component numbering. This leads to fewer errors and an even higher quality of work.
- Always the latest version: digital schematics mean that everyone is always working with the latest version of the project. Via the software, our workshop staff can indicate which wiring has already been finished. This way, all colleagues are up to date, even when someone has to step in.
- Direct communication with engineering: our panel builders can easily add comments and modifications. Were the electrical diagrams designed by our own engineering team? Then our electrical engineers see these comments appear in real time and immediately adjust the diagrams. This efficient communication saves a lot of time, gives a clear overview of the progress and prevents misunderstandings.
High quality with shorter delivery time for our customers
Our customers also benefit from the digitalization of electrical schematics. Due to the efficient cooperation between our in-house panel building and engineering department, we can now deliver high-quality panels even faster.
Sustainability through digitalization
By switching to a paperless workplace, we are helping to reduce our organisation’s carbon footprint. We no longer keep physical bundles of paper: so say goodbye to thick folders full of pages that can tear, get dirty or lost. This means we don’t have to print extra copies. Not even after a change to electrical diagrams. By using less paper, we create less waste. And we can only welcome that.
Digitalisation in electrical engineering: win-win for everyone
We are constantly looking for new ways to make our processes more efficient. This digitalization ensures a more sustainable workplace with more precision and efficient cooperation between our various departments. The result? A high quality of delivered panels with a reduced delivery time. A real win-win for our employees and customers!
