Lapp focuses on automation in 2006

November 2006 Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors

As Lapp Cable has always focused on connection solutions for process automation, the expanding range has always included new ideas, components to suit the clients needs and demands, and now even certain automation needs. 2006 is the year of automation for the Lapp Group as it has now included a full range of Industrial Ethernet components branded Etherline to not only solve connection solutions, but also be able to assist in Ethernet networks and redundancy links in industrial environments. Managed and unmanaged components in both copper, fibre and wireless are available to establish a total solution and connection in plant applications. Included in the new components are the industrial cable and connection versions which have increased durability, strain relief and resistance to harsh areas.
