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.
Discover our highlights at our virtual fair world. Immerse yourself in Weidmüller's digital fair world and learn more about the topics Smart Factory, solutions for the shop floor, end-to-end connections and interfaces, charging infrastructure for electromobility and exciting product innovations.
Panel building must continue to develop in order to meet the challenges - batch size 1, short delivery times and cost pressure.
This is where our innovations and services come in. Dr Sebastian Durst, Executive Vice President of the Division Cabinet Products, gives an insight into the Weidmüller solutions for future panel building. Our Workplace Solutions play an important role here.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Manual and partially automated processes and solutions for medium-sized businesses in particular promise major efficiency gains for medium volumes. Here we offer solutions for manual and semi-automated switch cabinet construction that can be used to exploit this potential.
Optimised workstations, which are standardised with regard to the needs of control cabinet manufacturers, provide valuable time savings.The Weidmüller tool chest increases efficiency by up to 10 %. Work processes are far more efficient thanks to the highest quality achieved through intelligently combined equipment and the rapid retrieval of missing tools. Identification using MultiCard markers and QR codes provides additional support.
The Weidmüller Wire Processing Center (WPC) increases the efficiency of cable assembly by up to 80 %. The WPC connects proven components with a modular, semi-automatic assembly system. Simplify the work processes in your panel building with the various input options for CAE data, optimal integration in production processes, reliable replenishment of supplies with wire end ferrules and markers as well as optimal process safety.

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.
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.

Relay modules switch inductive and capacitive loads reliably and durably. Overall, this leads to greater contact reliability and a longer service life with industrial loads. Optimising the control cabinet infrastructure is what motivates us day in day out. With Klippon® Relay, we offer high-quality relay modules and solid-state relays that meet all current and future market requirements. Discover our extensive universal range and our tailored application range to increase your productivity and safety for various fields of application.
With the PUSH IN connection from the TERMSERIES, we significantly optimise the wiring time for installation on the shop floor. The coloured pushers also help to avoid incorrect wiring. With the integrated cross-connection option, the sockets can be connected together at all connection levels. For test purposes, each connection has an additional test point. It's a real winner.
