## Description

Photograph an equipment nameplate and get a one-line diagram, schematic, ladder logic, panel layout, BOM, and calculations in minutes — right on your iPhone.

Turn equipment nameplates into engineering designs in minutes.

Engineering Designer helps engineers, electricians, technicians, and students quickly create engineering documentation by simply photographing an equipment nameplate. The app automatically extracts key technical information, asks a few project-specific questions, and generates professional design drawings, calculations, and documentation — right on your iPhone.

WHY YOU'LL USE IT
Standing in front of a motor, transformer, or panel with no time to start a design from scratch? Photograph the nameplate, answer a few questions about your application, and walk away with a conceptual one-line diagram, schematic, and bill of materials before you leave the site.

NAMEPLATE SCANNING
• Scan equipment nameplates using the iPhone camera
• Automatically identify manufacturer, model, voltage, current, horsepower, frequency, phase, RPM, efficiency, power factor, and other technical data
• Supports motors, transformers, generators, pumps, compressors, VFDs, PLCs, circuit breakers, panels, HVAC equipment, and industrial control devices

DESIGN GENERATION
• Select the application: motor control, power distribution, PLC control, VFD installation, transformer connections, generator systems, pump controls, conveyor controls, and more
• Answer a few simple design questions to customize project requirements
• Generate conceptual one-line diagrams
• Generate electrical schematics and control diagrams
• Create ladder logic diagrams for motor control and industrial automation applications
• Produce wiring diagrams and terminal connection diagrams
• Generate panel layouts and equipment arrangements

DOCUMENTATION & CALCULATIONS
• Build equipment schedules and device lists
• Automatically generate bills of materials (BOM)
• Create wire schedules and cable schedules
• Perform common engineering calculations, including conductor sizing, overcurrent protection, voltage drop, motor loading, and transformer sizing
• Generate engineering reports and design documentation
• Export drawings and reports for sharing and documentation

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
• Save projects for future editing and revisions
• Modify generated designs by changing design options, control methods, voltages, equipment selections, or application requirements
• Organize projects by customer, facility, or job number
• Maintain a searchable library of scanned equipment and previously generated designs

WHY ENGINEERING DESIGNER
• Works entirely on your iPhone — no uploads, no waiting, in the office or in the field
• Built for both educational and professional engineering workflows
• Turns a routine nameplate photo into a real head start on a design
• One app for one-line diagrams, schematics, ladder logic, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, schedules, BOMs, and calculations

Engineering Designer is a design aid intended to speed up conceptual documentation. Always verify calculations, code references, and component selections against the current edition of the National Electrical Code and applicable local requirements before construction or stamping.

Photograph a nameplate. Answer a few questions. Get a design.
