Panduit offers a broad range of innovative products for reliable control panel performance, including everything you need to enable space optimization, productivity, safety, and security.
In manufacturing organizations, real estate is typically one of the biggest expenses associated with running the business. As a result, production facility managers are under pressure to manage their space in the most effective and efficient manner to minimize capital and operational expenses. This can mean placing as much equipment as possible into a given area in the facility, which challenges equipment designers and builders to reduce the size and footprint of the machines they create.
This, in turn, challenges the controls engineers to design and build control panels within a smaller footprint or fit more equipment into an existing space. There are many challenges associated with designing smaller control panels. Considerations for cable segregation, thermal management, cable entry, electromagnetic interference (EMI), cable bend radius, and space for future expansion must be addressed when attempting to reduce the size of control panels.
Read this detailed brochure to learn about Panduit solutions for optimizing the space in the control panel, as well as how to improve productivity in control panel applications, mitigating security and safety risks, and integrating connected control panels.
