Focusing on the Digital Transformation

“The digital transformation is a vital factor for our success.”

“WAGO is setting a clear strategic focus here which includes all Group divisions and which is consistently aligned to the needs and demands of our customers”, declares Chief Marketing Officer Christian Sallach, who took over in May of this year as head of the newly created “Digital Transformation Office” business management unit at WAGO as the Chief Digital Officer. The unit is responsible for strategic bundling and promotion of all digital content within the company.

Solutions for the Digital Future

WAGO is supporting its customers with new products and services as a forward-looking partner. The company is underpinning this aspiration with its solutions for sensor/actuator integration, cloud connectivity, cyber-security, adaptable production processes, horizontal networking and smart data. “The trend toward digitization poses numerous challenges for manufacturers that must be resolved over the medium term,” stresses Christian Sallach.

Ready for Smart Factory

WAGO has dealt extensively with these requirements and will display ready-to-work solutions at the SPS IPC Drives trade show. These are based on technologies that are available today and offer measurable added value to users. For example, with a simple software update, the WAGO PFC Controllers can be turned into IoT controllers that transmit data from the field level directly to the cloud, where this data can be aggregated and used for analysis.

The WAGO Cloud can be used in this process as the link between elements of the real and digital worlds. These can be employed to help monitor and manage the controllers and their application and data – from any location.
