Software-based assistance systems provide support when assembling and installing wiring connections. All the necessary data for mounting control cabinet modules, such as terminal strips, is provided as required. Manual mounting activities are also supported by smart solutions.
Mounting
Virtual assistant simplifies manual mounting
Wiring and handling made easy
Eplan Smart Wiring guides the worker through the wiring process step by step. They have an overview of everything, even without a circuit diagram. The same is true for scenarios where multiple control cabinets are wired in parallel or different colleagues work on the same project. The required wires are assembled at the Rittal Wire Terminal. Handling systems such as the Rittal assembly frame and the Smart Lifter provide support for manual activities.
Your advantages for greater efficiency:
Manufacturing and installation processes are much simpler
Easy monitoring and documentation
Convenient solutions make it easier to perform manual mounting activities
Digital data-enabled assistance systems are the key to secure and efficient assembly processes.

Phoenix Contact clipx WIRE assist Software
The necessary wiring information is exported from Eplan PRO Panel and fed into the clipx WIRE assist software.
Based on this data, the clipx WIRE assist software guides the worker through the semi-automated wire preparation process.
At the same time, the devices in the worker assistance system are controlled directly and the necessary information for further processing and wiring is displayed on the monitor.
In addition, an integrated editor function also allows data to be created or supplemented manually.
