Industrial Automation

Industrial automation is the automated control of manufacturing processes through various technologies such as software or robotics. In order to operate efficiently, the various components of an automation application (e.g. sensors, actuators, etc.) need to be connected in a reliable and stable manner. SIGNAL offers different connector combinations for a wide range of applications in industrial automation.

SIGNAL connectors for automation application include: M12 series (Coding: A, B, D, X, S, K, T, L, US); 7/8'' DeviceNet connectors. The products are highly flexible and spark resistant and are IP68/IP69K rated. SIGNAL can also provide a complete connectivity solution from rack alignment to panel mount connectors.
