State-of-the-art product and documentation

Although the plug & play Wallbox Home Eco is easy to use, technical user documentation is still a must and this documentation is now exactly what you would expect from a digital pioneer. It is state of the art in terms of technology and design, boasts optimum visuals, can be accessed on the move using a smartphone, if necessary, and – in a first for the market – is linked to the Group’s View2Connect software, which generates 3D spare parts documentation.

Innovative link between COSIMA go! and View2Connect

DOCUFY’s COSIMA go! editorial system provides the content of the technical documentation. Thanks to its intuitive operation, Heidelberg has been able to introduce the system and put it to productive use for the Wallbox in a very short space of time. Linking COSIMA to the Heidelberg platform solution View2Connect, which greatly simplifies business processes in mechanical engineering, enables the simultaneous creation of an interactive 3D spare parts catalog and 2D/3D servicing instructions. View2Connect helps ensure an end-to-end digital PLM process chain by creating an intuitive and sustainable collaboration and communication platform based on 2D/3D product data. 3D development and production models are used for this purpose.

Customer and spare parts documentation from a single source for more efficient technical content creation

“The Wallbox documentation work has shown how beneficial DOCUFY’s integration into the Heidelberg Group is proving,” says Professor Ulrich Hermann, Member of the Management Board and Chief Digital Officer at Heidelberg. “We’ve created a completely new combination of descriptive and 3D spare parts documentation from a single source. That’s unique and, in addition to giving Wallbox customers high added value, it also offers huge potential for boosting the overall efficiency of technical content creation at Heidelberg,” he adds.
