Recently, INVT officially signed a long-term technical cooperation agreement with EPLAN, a global leading provider of engineering software and services. The partnership focuses on key areas such as product data standardization and the integration of design and manufacturing, aiming to leverage emerging technologies to help manufacturing customers accelerate industrial standardization and intelligent transformation.

Strong Partnership to Shape the Future of Smart Manufacturing

As the manufacturing sector enters a deeper phase of digital transformation, data silos between electrical design and automation execution have become a critical bottleneck affecting efficiency and cost optimization. Seamless data flow across the entire process—from product selection and schematic design to commissioning and operation—has become a common industry challenge.

As a benchmark enterprise in China’s intelligent manufacturing sector, INVT integrates advanced technologies with diverse application scenarios to deliver differentiated, professional, and customized products, solutions, and technical services to global customers. The long-term cooperation agreement with EPLAN marks a significant step in INVT’s pursuit of “data-driven industrial intelligence.” The collaboration aims to break through data barriers from engineering design to automation execution, enabling smoother data flow. Both parties have also reached broad consensus on deepening technical collaboration and strengthening joint marketing, laying a solid foundation for future cooperation.

Deepening Collaboration to Build a Shared Vision

At the beginning of the signing event, the EPLAN team toured INVT’s exhibition hall, gaining in-depth insights into the company’s development history and innovation achievements. During the subsequent exchange session, both sides discussed the EPLAN Partner Program and INVT’s participation model, and conducted on-site demonstrations of the DDBS new business portfolio and the EPLAN Report Center.

The two parties also held in-depth discussions on potential joint marketing initiatives for 2026 and defined INVT’s product data integration roadmap for 2026–2027. These initiatives will inject new momentum into future technical alignment and market collaboration.

Data Integration to Enhance Engineering Efficiency

Currently, data for INVT’s full range of automation products is being progressively integrated into the EPLAN Data Portal component library. This library strictly follows the EPLAN Data Standard, providing high-precision component data with classification levels ranging from Level 1 to Level 7. It supports the entire workflow—from schematic design to 3D wiring—enabling engineers worldwide to directly access and apply standardized data. This significantly improves electrical design efficiency, shortens product development cycles, and empowers customers to accelerate their journey toward intelligent manufacturing through standardized data.

Moving forward, INVT will continue to partner with EPLAN, leveraging a strong digital foundation and ongoing innovation to empower industries worldwide and drive high-quality growth in the era of intelligent manufacturing.
