Small Steps towards digitization
Gustav Hensel and WAGO: Moving Step by Step Together towards Digitalization
Gustav Hensel, a globally successful control cabinet manufacturer, relies on a digitalization strategy based on small but sustainable steps. And the gradual implementation of WAGO’s digital twin is an essential ingredient.
“New Work” in the Digital Age
In control cabinet manufacturing, the digital transformation is changing not only specific workflows, but also the way people work. The focus is shifting more and more to creative and flexible working methods. “New Work” is becoming the “new normal” in Minden as well.
Automated DIN-Rail Mounting with Robots
Control cabinet manufacturing involves many time-consuming manual production steps. In a joint research project, WAGO and the Frauenhofer IPA investigated the possibility of automatically mounting rail-mount terminal blocks in control cabinets.
What are the advantages of digital twins, and why should switchgear manufacturers definitely use them? Steffen Winther, our expert on digitalization in the control cabinet, and Jürgen Wirtz, editor-in-chief of Schaltschrankbau Magazine, clarify these issues together in the “Technical Knowledge” podcast.
