MOMENTS OF SUCCESS

Our customers’ success is what motivates us. Our customers think big – every day, in various industries, all around the world – and we help them to experience moments of success.

Featured Moment of Success

Sustainable Drinking Water Solutions (Belgium)

A world in which everyone has access to clean and safe water – that is BOSAQ’s mission. The Belgian company offers sustainable drinking water solutions in shipping containers, called a “Q-Drop” for short, to help thousands of people in remote areas. BOSAQ relies on the WAGO Cloud, among other things, for the technology, to enable simple, remote monitoring of its systems.

Railway Systems

Škoda Group – The Reliable Journey Moment

  • The reliability of a system is especially important under extreme conditions – such as for a light rail vehicle that must function properly in all kinds of weather. The goal: Utilize capacities and avoid downtime.
  • The Škoda Group in Finland has built all the light rail vehicles for the second streetcar system in Finland and is familiar with this challenge. Its demands on suppliers are therefore stringent: It needs a reliable partner with reliable components.
  • Škoda therefore chose WAGO for a historical light rail vehicle project – due to its roots in the railway sector and its fitting technologies and approvals.

GEZ Rail Solutions GmbH – Rejuvenating Trains

  • A second life: GEZ Rail Solutions returns older trains from Germany onto the tracks of Mexico.
  • But not before they first undergo technical rejuvenation: All the electronic systems are replaced with new equipment.
  • The centerpiece: The train control system, newly innovated with WAGO, represents a special challenge here – as it ultimately coordinates all vital systems.

Łódź, Poland

When true passion for a job meets expert knowledge, the result can be truly fabulous projects – like one of the most modern train stations in central Europe: the Łódź Fabryczna. This spectacular underground train station has far more to offer than is visible at first glance. The comprehensive technical equipment of the building is also impressive – after all, many trains and buses arrive and depart the station every day, reliably and safely. And the technical experts rely primarily on automation solutions from WAGO.

Lumikko - HVAC Systems in Railway Systems

For greater sustainability in trams: As a specialist in HVAC systems, the Finnish company Lumikko has developed a recovery system for braking energy that enables efficient passenger heating. Lumikko relies on control technology from WAGO for development.

  • Utilizing complete seed-to-sale farm management, software, industry-leading hardware for automated control and fully enabled farms for Turnkey CEA Deployment

Sunresin – eXTReme Conditions for Lithium Recovery

  • The shift to renewable energy also requires expanding battery technologies. This requires the lithium carbonate necessary for construction.
  • Sunresin, a Chinese company specializing in the research, development, and production of adsorption and separation technology, extracts it from salt lakes in Qinghai.
  • Because extremes in altitude, temperature and weather prevail, the company relies on the particularly robust WAGO I/O System 750 XTR control system, which is specially designed for extreme environmental conditions.

Papaflessas, Greece

This feeling of making a contribution to a cleaner world is amazing motivation. With it – and the support of WAGO technology – even the highly complex task of controlling an entire wind farm becomes a fun challenge, according to the engineers in Papaflessas, where one of many wind farms is being built to supply the country with green energy.

Building Technology

Flow East – Tradition meets The Modern Age

  • Bringing 21st century architecture to Prague's Wenceslas Square was one of the long-standing goals of our customer, The Flow East. The challenge facing them: the historic city center
  • 10 years of planning: What ultimately tipped the scales in their favor was the plan for The Flow Building – along with the quality of the materials and the technologies. As a partner for building technology, the company also relied on WAGO.
  • The result: a building with unique architecture in the middle of the Czech capital that merges old with new – and one that was even certified as “Outstanding” by BREEAM.

Heiligenstadt, Germany

A building that does entirely without fossil fuels and even generates energy? It’s not science fiction – leitec® has made it a reality and gets its energy from an ice storage system. The company relies on WAGO technology to control all the energy and building technology of its high-tech facility.

Effelsberg, Germany

Understanding the vastness of the universe and the various heavenly bodies has long been one of humanity’s great fascinations. High-tech systems like the Effelsberg radio telescope are now bringing us closer than ever before to understanding the secrets of the universe. The giant telescope is equipped with over 100 motors and WAGO technology to control it, making it among the most cutting-edge of its kind.

Prague, Czech Republic

No other instrument can convey the same sense of eternity as the organ. So it is all the more important for the individual components to function reliably throughout a long service life. That’s why Robert Ponča performs regular maintenance on equipment like the organ in the Rudolfinum in Prague to preserve its rich tradition for the future. For retrofitting old instruments, he relies on the reliable I/O System from WAGO to keep the tradition alive into the future.

Freiburg, Germany

These are the moments where everything clicks and something great results. Customized WAGO solutions make such “perfect fit” moments possible. This is how we help bring ideas to life – such as when throwing just one switch is all that is needed in order to make the moment shine.
