Remote material requirements planning using the pull principle
The replenishment of assembly components not in the managed inventory is a good place to start when digitalising and optimising the shop floor. For this task, a wireless-based automated materials requisition system is available to users. The cost and effort of installation and initial operation are manageable, the tools exists, and the benefits are considerable.
Flexible production and intralogistics requires an information flow which is also flexible. Cabled communication reaches its limits very quickly. Wireless networks are the ideal solution here, for example with eKanban systems such as those offered by companies like steute.
Remote control increases versatility - Wireless switches and sensors for industrial applications
Eliminating cables can be beneficial for many different switchgear applications, with some fields even demanding that electromechanical switches and sensors be cable-free. Depending on the requirements in question, the solution can also be a wireless network.
Wireless Ex switchgear: technology & application examples
Switches and sensors - free of cables in Ex zones: When Ex switches and sensors require no electrical cables and can transmit their signals beyond the Ex zone, then depending on the application in question the advantages can be considerable. More and more users are now opting for this technology – including and especially in sensitive application fields.
