Matplus EDA®Reliable materials information for the product lifecycle
The Exploratory Data Analysis platform (EDA®) brings your materials data from labs, suppliers and calculations together in one place, checks it, puts it into a unified schema and makes it available to your departments – versioned, traceable and ready to use in CAE, PLM and ERP.
Materials data is scattered, contradictory and hard to trace
Inconsistent and contradicting material data cost time and budget.
Data silos
Isolated applications hold data in different formats, names and units. Departments duplicate work.
Media breaks
Test data is evaluated in spreadsheets and leaves the protected space of the information system.
No traceability
It is unclear which value applies and which system is responsible. Knowledge sits with a few people.
How it works
Materials data management software Matplus EDA®: from data source to usable material card
More than storage: EDA extracts data from different sources, checks it and merges it into a unified schema – ready to connect at every step of your process chain.
Data sources
Take over data from labs, suppliers, reference databases and JMatPro® – from xls, csv and JSON or via interfaces.
Extraction and checking
Process test data transparently, fit curves, convert units and compare test data with calculated properties.
Unified schema
Versions and revisions, individual views per user and group, permissions and one central source for all departments.
Application
Generate models for CAE material cards, create reports and pass data to ERP, PLM and CAE.
Data quality
Every value traceable: origin, version, approval
Matplus EDA® keeps your materials data checked and traceable.
No vendor lock-in
In daily work you use EDA through a simple interface, without programming. Your data stays yours: you can export it at any time.
Versions and revisions
All processes and changes stay transparent and traceable.
Documented data creation
Test data processing is transparent and documented – in a protected system instead of many ‘private’ tools.
Reliable reference data
Materials reference data from partnerships with leading institutions.
Create material models from test data with expandable Scientific Python applications and generate models for CAE material cards in a protected environment.
Material selection in product development, directly integrated into CAD systems such as Siemens NX and Catia: freely configurable tabular searches, search masks and graphical material comparisons.
Substance compliance reporting
Regulated substance reports from bills of materials (BOM) with material assignment: substances with quantity, proportions and CAS numbers – also via a REST interface for PLM and ERP.
Image processing
Image analysis, image processing and evaluation, including calibration and measurements, for image-intensive materials data.
Project management
Kanban boards, Gantt diagrams and project structures integrated into the data model – with links between orders, tasks and materials.

JMatPro®: Matplus EDA® provides an interface to JMatPro® and takes over JMatPro® calculations for high-throughput evaluation. JMatPro® is licensed separately.
What is materials data management with Matplus EDA®?
Matplus EDA® is a software platform to manage, check and approve your own test and materials data. Reference data from Matplus databases such as Matglobe and calculations from JMatPro® feed into it. All departments work with the same traceable data.
Does EDA run in the cloud or on premises?
Both are possible: on premises or in the cloud.
Are we locked in to Matplus?
No. EDA uses open components, you work with it through a simple interface, and you can export your data at any time.
Which edition fits us?
Matplus EDA® is offered in three editions: Starter, Professional and Enterprise. We are happy to discuss in person which edition fits your needs.
Open. Secure. No vendor lock-in.
Matplus EDA® keeps the engineering context of your materials data – so your teams can connect systems, reuse knowledge and create impact.
