CONTROL PANEL AUTOMATION SHOW

EPLAN, Komax Wire and Kiesling saw a need to automate the Control Panel Process. These three companies have partnered together to provide customers, with not only individual technologies, but a complete solution for Control Panel Manufacturing. They identified the challenge within this industry as the manufacturing of control panels. This is traditionally a labor-intensive and time-consuming process with very few options for process automation. These three partners have come up with a solution to provide customers with not only individual technologies but a complete solution for control panel manufacturing, EPLAN, Kiesling, and Komax Wire and our partners are working together to demonstrate how automation leads the way to increasing productivity and reducing costs.

Session Descriptions KEYNOTE: Integrate your software with established manufacturing equipment, a best in class example. Presented by BEVCO Bevco leads the Control Panel Automation Space. Join us for a discussion led by Bob Burkard, Vice President of Operations, who will share their implementation experience combining EPLAN Pro Panel, Kiesling Perferex and Komax Zeta technologies. Learn about the successes and challenges from a company that has made the journey to the next level of Control Panel Automation.

Power Distribution: Benefits, potential cost and labor savings associated with this trend/Arc Flash: NFPA 70E Workplace Safety presented by Rittal Presented by Rittal Part 1 -Arc Flash: NFPA 70E Workplace Safety - Arc flash is a dangerous phenomenon where electric current travels outside its path, often causing violent results of serious injury and even death. Arc flash safety has become a very important topic within the industrial market space. OSHA has increased its enforcement of NFPA 70E (Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace®) guidelines. Learn how Rittal products can help you meet these requirements and provide a safer working environment for your personnel. Part 2 -Power Distribution: Benefits, potential cost and labor savings associated with this trend. - Busbar systems provide highly organized, economical ways to distribute power. This can reduce the overall costs associated with the design and integration of control panels. Busbar is a globally accepted, future-oriented solution for modern low-voltage power distribution. This provides designers, integrators, and end-users of industrial control panels additional advantages when compared to traditional solutions. Rittal offers safe, modular, assembly friendly, high quality busbar systems conforming to all major international standards as CE, UL, CSA, and GL.

Maximizing Your Engineering Investment; Using Data to Drive Kiesling Manufacturing Automation. Presented by Kiesling Generating accurate project data upfront in the electrical planning stage has many advantages such as reducing the cost of quality. The outputs of the CAE system, if done correctly, can allow for the use of automation equipment on the manufacturing floor which in turn will standardize processes, reduce process times, reduce on-floor inventories and therefore significantly reduce the cost of manufacturing. Learn how you can take advantage of automation equipment from Kiesling Maschinentechnik including the Perforex machining center for enclosure and back panel modification, the Secarex cutting center for DIN rail and wire track, the Athex terminal block assembly station, and the Panel Scout electrical testing system.

Session Titles and Descriptions Accelerate your Control Panel Process presented by EPLAN

Learn how EPLAN leads automation in Control Panel Manufacturing. Bring data consistency between disciplines with superior quality, lower overall costs and time savings. With EPLAN Pro Panel, 3D enclosure modeling using Rittal panels ensures visualization, automatic wire routing and integration with NC production with the Kiesling Perforex machine and the Komax Wire Zeta Wire Processing machine, that will accelerate the manufacturing of control panels. Through 3D virtual prototyping you can layout your design panel, align and position components exactly, follow spacing requirements and automatically calculate wire lengths. EPLAN Pro Panel’s realistic 3D representation ensures high-quality data for manufacturing, mounting and operation.

Crimp Quality & Verification presented by Komax/TE Connectivity Description: Komax Wire and TE Connectivity will present what’s a good crimp, what’s a bad crimp, and why crimp quality can affect your product quality output.

Design Efficiency: Round trip engineering with EPLAN and Rockwell Automation's design presented by Rockwell Automation Leveraging the power of EPLAN and Rockwell Automation's RSLogix design and programming tools for seamless data exchange and round trip engineering. Learn how to reduce design time and efforts through bi-directional synchronization of Control hardware and tag data between Eplan and Rockwell's RSLogix tools as well as simplified management of multi-controller projects.

Insulted Ferrules and Its Impact to Control Panel Manufacturing presented by Z+F USA Today, the wire ferrule has become a world-wide electrical connector standard where high electrical reliability and robust mechanical construction is required. President Eric De Jans will discuss in detail why ferrules are a necessity to control panel cabinet manufacturing. After invention of the insulated ferrule, the company understood the need to have equipment that could strip and crimp ferrules onto wires quickly and efficiently.
