Available component technologies that increase wiring speed

Push-in wiring technology

Our Push-in wiring technology enhances efficiency by streamlining the installation process and reducing labor costs. This innovative and future-proof solution ensures reliable and secure connections while eliminating the need for traditional tools. Push-in terminals enable time savings of up to 50% compared to other connection technologies, boosting productivity and safety in a wide range of electrical applications.

Smart wiring technology

By deploying our IoT-ready SmartWire-DT technology, you can replace traditional wiring with a single cable that not only connects all machine components with a simple click, but can also transfer all their data. SmartWire-DT thus eliminates the need for error-prone point-to-point wiring. This means that wiring is up to 85% faster, and project planning costs can be reduced by up to 70%.
