Understanding the Automation Pyramid
Featured Product from Altech Corp.
Cables and connectors are critical components in every application, from single application to factory floor wiring. You’ll want assurance that your connector and cable selection enable the proper use of sensors and controls at each level of operation so that you can leverage the full capabilities of every device in your system. But first, understand that the automation level does not have anything to do with the quality of the cable or connector, only where and how it will be used. Each level of operation in the automation pyramid for connectors and cables must be robust enough to handle the placement and operation required for that particular job without over- or under-compensation, which can cost more plus lead to greater maintenance needs.
