November 2016 – As partner in Industrial Connectivity, Weidmuller considers panel building to be an integrated process – from the planning stage all the way to installation and operation. The latest example of this is Klippon® Connect. The offer – which consists of tailored application products, universal terminal blocks and process supporting services – provides users with productivity benefits at all stages of the panel building process. These include benefits such as time-saving planning and project planning, faultless wiring, fast marking and much more besides. Often, standardisation enables the right solution to be found with our sophisticated, function-oriented universal range. It provides users with practical product features. For recurring application fields, such as control voltage distribution or signal wiring, the company offers the ideal solutions with its application range. Thanks to the high level of application focus, these solutions really do help increase productivity, efficiency and safety.

Every panel building process starts with the planning stage. It is here that the foundation for an optimum set-up is laid. Once there is a plan in place, installation starts. The panel components are marked, wired and checked. The fully installed panel can then be put into operation. To ensure that users achieve the greatest possible level of efficiency in this process, Weidmuller has continuously examined the optimisation potential of both the individual phases (planning, installation and operation) and how they interlink with one another. Innovative products and services that support users in all the stages of the panel building process are the result.
