Electrical Connections for Automation Technology
Automation has become indispensable in almost all sectors of industry. It makes precise measurements, the control and adjustment of machines and plants, and the automation and optimisation of production processes possible. Whether in the manufacturing, automotive, food & beverage, or chemical industries, automation technology improves efficiency & productivity, reduces error rates, and lowers operating expenses. At the same time, human employees are relieved of dangerous or physically demanding tasks. By integrating modern technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and the Internet of Things (IoT), automation will continue to develop and play a significant role in industrial ingenuity.
Cables and wires play an important role in automation and are serve diverse functions in many different applications. They are used as control and connection cables for machines and plants, stepper motor cables, feedback, servo & encoder cables for drive technology, or as industrial Ethernet and bus cables for transmitting data. Depending on the application, electrical connection technology must fulfil special requirements to ensure disruption-free operation.
Automation systems are often in service around the clock performing dynamic movements, especially in robotics. The cables and wires used in these applications must therefore be durable and robust, while also being flexible and resistant to bending and torsion forces. To minimise disruptions caused by electromagnetic fields, they must also be screened or shielded to exhibit a high electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Furthermore, cables and wires used in automation are often subjected to extreme temperatures and adverse conditions such as moisture, dust, or chemicals, and must be resistant to these.
