Engineering Base
With Engineering Base, AUCOTEC has created a platform that digitally maps the entire lifecycle of process plants – across disciplines, openly, and with future-proof technology. A universal digital twin for seamless collaboration: The central data model in Engineering Base serves as a single source of truth, enabling interdisciplinary plant development from the initial concept to the finest detail. Every object exists only once in the model. Diagrams, datasheets, and lists are simply different representations of the same object. All departments edit and refine it from their perspective, and every addition is immediately visible to everyone. No interfaces, data transfers, or transmission errors are required. Seamless integration into company IT and processes: In engineering itself, simulation and calculation tools are integrated in such a way that they always work with the most up-to-date data, and their results enrich the digital twin. 3D systems for mechanical design are always kept current, material data is synchronized with ERP and PLM systems, and the engineering results are automatically transferred as bills of materials and documents. Engineering Base enables and facilitates all of this with its exceptionally open architecture. Efficiency is just as important as data consistency and security. At home in many industries, the digital twin, with its flexible and expandable data model, support for collaborative team engineering, and openness to integrations and processes, is ideal for use in a wide variety of industries. From large-scale process industry plants to complete plant and mechanical engineering, including automation and energy distribution, all the way to mobile systems. Additions such as rule sets, templates, and wizards simplify industry-specific tasks.
