Being a pioneer means always striving for optimisations and improvements

Pioneering Industrial Connectivity – Panel building of the future

Digitalisation and automation offer huge increases in efficiency for the panel building process. Production needs to become increasingly individual, flexible and digital in order to increase added value. Process-wide solutions offer considerable optimisation potential particularly for time-consuming activities such as wire processing, assembly or marking.

To us, being a pioneer means - together with you, our customers - shaping relevant developments. Together with our customers. For more than 40 years, we have been developing solutions that are perfectly aligned with each work phase in panel building. Based on our many years of practical experience, we offer a comprehensive and well-coordinated portfolio of solutions and services.

Here we would like to give you an insight into how you can increase efficiency and quality thanks to our Workplace Solutions for manual, semi-automated and fully-automated panel building. We would also like to introduce our innovations for lightning and surge protection, relays and terminal blocks, which can optimise all areas of your panel building.

Our Workplace Solutions support you on the shop floor and in production, in every work phase of panel building, from planning through to installation and operation, with perfectly coordinated products. Thanks to our many years of practical experience in panel building, we can offer you a comprehensive and well-coordinated portfolio to effectively speed up your processes and increase your quality.

Automated panel building

The digitalisation of processes on the shop floor is a major lever for increasing the efficiency of a company. While manual and semi-automated solutions are used for medium-sized quantities, fully-automated solutions for high quantities offer many benefits when it comes to efficiency. With our Klippon® RailAssembler, Klippon® RailLaser and other innovations, our portfolio can help you design the processes on your shop floor to be more efficient.

Klippon® Automated RailAssembler

With the Klippon® Automated RailAssembler, picking, assigning and positioning, snapping on and viewing of the individual terminal blocks is a thing of the past. Taking into account different circumstances and initial situation the Klippon® Automated RailAssembler allows time savings of up to 60% - fast and reliable.

Take a look at how our automated marking works with the Klippon® RailLaser

The Klippon® Automated RailLaser enables fully automatic and therefore fast and efficient marking of assembled terminal rails with excellent marking quality. Make time savings of up to 90% when marking terminal blocks. With the additional use of the Weidmüller Configurator (WMC), avoid unnecessary incorrect markings thanks to consistent data usage from eCAD systems.

Smart Cabinet Building

Linking technology and expertise

More than ever before, control cabinet construction is caught up in a pronounced field of tension: technical possibilities that are difficult to overlook in the face of fast-moving customer requirements, high cost and price pressure and tight deadlines. This can only succeed if the possibilities of automation and digitalisation are transformed into a perfect interplay of product, process and means of production.

SMART CABINET BUILDING is an open initiative of the companies Weidmüller, Komax, Zuken and Armbruster Engineering. The offer combines the competencies of the four project partners to support customers from a wide range of industries in optimizing their processes. It includes the provision of fully automated solutions as well as comprehensive services for switch cabinet construction.

An important factor in production is the lightning and surge protection for machines and plant. As a long-established, innovative partner, Weidmüller offers reliable and high-quality lightning and surge protection products. Sound expert knowledge and hundreds of tailored solutions make us the ideal partner for your panel building. Our extensive VARITECTOR product portfolio offers lightning and surge protection for power systems, measuring and control systems as well as data interfaces, and impresses with innovations such as the IoT-capable Varitector PU and the smallest Varitector PU in the world.

IoT-capable VARITECTOR PU

The new Varitector PU AC IoT surge protection devices combine the functions of powerful surge protection with that of an intelligent IoT device. This means that important functions can be monitored, for example: device status in real time, number of surge voltages, swap-out recommendations, status of the protective earth connection and history of temporary surge voltages.

The smallest VARITECTOR PU in the world

Safe, efficient and extremly space-saving

With increasing digitalisation, the infrastructure of intelligent devices and systems is becoming more and more sensitive to interferences. Besides, cost and competition are forcing manufacturers to improve compactness and efficiency of their products. The innovative gas arrester technology of our VARITECTOR PU AC S line enables a particularly space-saving design with only 18 mm width per pole. For excellent surge protection with a slim design and an attractive price/performance ratio.

  • Space savings of 50 % due to reduced width
  • Fuseless operation up to 315 A
  • Energetically coordinated as type I, II and III
  • More efficient installation
