Engineering software like clipx Engineer from Phoenix Contact can acquire components, parts, functions, connection cross-sections, and labeling information, and display them digitally. The software also assists in assigning accessory items, such as covers and end brackets, and provides configurators for finding necessary components. Clipx Engineer also handles tasks like inserting and setting up terminal blocks, which can be time-consuming. The software also writes data back to the leading CAE system using a two-way interface, recording it at connection points. This saves wiring time and requires fewer connection lines, reducing terminal points on terminal blocks. The engineering software serves as the central digital database for different control cabinet variants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"clipx Engineer\" class=\"wp-image-2589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-2048x1280.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.phoenixcontact.com\/marketing-ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Bild-3-1-edited-624x390.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Uses of the generated data for the subsequent process chain of a control cabinet manufacturer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Digitally described terminal strips or control cabinets can be assembled or equipped using Phoenix Contact&#8217;s worker-assistance software in production.
