Based on a wide range of products, Omron has been continuing to work for the innovation of making control panels which house and control FA devices on the production front line. Omron unified the design and size of FA devices, and introduced products which are built with the company’s proprietary wiring technology “Push-In Plus Terminal Block.” The technology is primarily used for device and control panel makers in need of “downsizing and space-saving” of FA devices and control panels, “expedited delivery” and “response to globalization,” a release from Omron said.
The first and second wave of value design products were introduced in April and October 2016 respectively. They have been adopted on the front line of manufacturing by more than 7,000 global companies and received a high evaluation. For example, a manufacturer of semiconductor production equipment reduced the control panel size by 30 per cent and the wiring lead time by half, post adoption of OMRON’s Value Design products.
The third wave of 36 models in four categories can achieve even simpler wiring with a wider product range. They are in high demand at client production sites which have adopted the first and second wave products.
Major additions to product lineups include XW5T Terminal Blocks, G70V I/O Relay Terminals, K7L-B Liquid Leakage Sensor Amplifiers and S8VK-S Switch Mode Power Supplies.
For instance, the XW5T DIN Track Push-in Plus Terminal Blocks (in picture) double its line-up from 18 to 36 models. For terminal blocks with a width of 5.2 mm (maximum rated current: 24 A) and 6.2 mm (maximum rated current: 32 A), internal wiring of 1:2 and 2:2 type for branching and 2 tier type for spacesaving are added. The workability and reliability of the XW5T with OMRON’s unique Push-In Plus Terminal Blocks can be used for wider applications.
