In the future, the production will be networked and intelligent; it will control and optimize itself partially automatically, while managing resources efficiently. In order to reach the "intelligent factory", existing processes will be networked and the data of all machine and product processes will be recorded. Automation solutions such as the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 interface building blocks enable the collection and transfer of data to the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) or product management system.

Orders and production processes are increasingly digitized. Purpose: Consistent and transparent data throughout the entire value-added process to save time and money. To support this horizontal integration, WAGO offers a smartDATA Engineering solution that supports users in the design, testing and commissioning of their control cabinets.

Increasing accuracy, increasing speed, increasing flexibility - the requirements of mechanical engineering are constantly increasing. At the same time, the customization of machines and systems constantly increases the diversification of production facilities. The right instrument is essential. Including our PROFINET fieldbus interface and e!DISPLAY display, WAGO is delivering the right products to help customers implement their projects.

The industrial revolution "Industry 4.0" and the large amount of data available offered unexpected opportunities for new business models, so the benefit of collecting valuable data became important. WAGO's flexible and durable automation solutions enable reliable and error-free data transfer from the field level for error-free use in a cloud or production management system; and they can also upgrade existing systems. In addition, various interfaces and field buses such as CANopen, PROFIBUS DP, DeciveNet and Modbus-TCP can be used independently of the manufacturer.

There are many benefits from automated manufacturing technology - from cost savings to optimized processes. Learn more about flexible control and WAGO I/O modules via video.
