Ready for the requirements of future-proof networks
Wieland Electric supports maximum flexibility and reliable industrial communication with SFP (small form-factor) ports Faster, more adaptable, and more secure - these are the demands placed on network technology in the industrial environment. The objective is to simultaneously communicate bigger volumes of data rapidly and reliably. Wieland Electric has increased its industrial communication range in order to offer users the maximum possible options in the construction of high-performance networks. SFP ports are available for both unmanaged and managed IP switches, allowing you to respond quickly and simply to changing network technology requirements while taking advantage of fiber optic technology’s benefits. Depending on the needs and type of SFP module used, the SFP ports can be used to increase the number of conventional RJ45 copper-bound connections via CAT5/6/7 cable or to connect a single/multimode fibre optic cable. This means that the network technology can be designed to be incredibly flexible by adding extra network users or improving transmission speed. This is where fibre optic technology in particular comes into its own.

As investment in technology grows, the future becomes clearer for business
In 2022, automation has accelerated across all industries and ecosystem types, towards new implementations and progress in the development of new technologies. In 2022 and for years to come, this category is expected to go faster and further than ever before.
How has the landscape changed in terms of implementation of robotic systems in all industries? The ever-increasing global demand for automation has increased the adoption of technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning for industrial developments. Among the technological advances, autonomous mobile robots (AMR) are increasingly becoming an integral part of many companies in the world. As we now see more and more production facilities of all sizes around the world, the number of robots required to be deployed in applications or the size of fleets is increasing.

Addgards launch new Innovative Forklift and Pallet Wrap Caddy in the UK
• Innovative Caddy to hold essential tools and accessories on Forklift and Hand pallet trucks
Addgards have conducted research with many warehouses and factories in the UK and found that there was very little storage space allocated on a Forklift and even less on a Hand pallet truck. As a result they have designed two new products to safely and securely store essential tools and pallet wrap for forklifts and hand pallet trucks. Forklifts typically have very little storage space, very often drivers would put rolls of tape around the gear stick and leave a roll of shrink wrap unsecured behind the drivers seat.
This can
be quiet dangerous in a busy warehouse. The Forklift caddy is designed to hold all the operatives essentials such as stationery, scanners, tape, phones and shrink wrap. These user-friendly products complement the Addgards Safety range of Column Protectors and Safety barriers for warehouses.
