FORT
WORTH, Texas, Dec. 14,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- RS, a trading brand of RS Group
plc (LSE: RS1), a global provider of product and service solutions
for industrial customers, now features the Factory Visual tool by
Schneider Electric, a world leader in industrial automation and
control products for applications ranging from simple machines to
complex process systems.
Visualize how various automation &
control products can improve factory efficiency, safety,
reliability, and resilience.
The new interactive Factory Visual tool features a customizable
3D model of a factory environment and introduces the core product
ranges in Schneider Electric's industrial automation and control
portfolio. It also reveals how these products can help users
improve their productivity, which is a goal common to virtually
every manufacturing facility and is especially relevant to
customers including maintenance professionals, equipment
manufacturers, and control panel builders.
The default digital factory environment is a soda bottling plant
that includes a section for material handling, packaging, and
transport and gives you a general idea of where you can use
Schneider Electric products to add value to your operations.
Customers interested in a more tailored experience can contact RS
to request a 3D model of their own factory floor.
Both the default and custom Factory Visual environments feature
five color-coded product categories grouped by functionality to
make selection simple and showcase every core Schneider Electric
industrial automation and control product engineered to optimize
manufacturing operations. Product categories and examples
include:
- Operator Interfaces, such as pushbuttons, signaling
devices, HMIs, control stations and enclosures, and pendant
stations.
- Motor Controls, such as motor disconnects, motor control
and protection, soft starters, and variable speed drives.
- Electrical Distribution Solutions, such as safety
switches, electrical protection and control, power supplies and
transformers, molded case circuit breakers, and enclosures.
- Machine Safety Solutions, such as safety modules and
controllers.
- Automation and Motion Products, such as interface and
control relays, motion control and robotics, Ethernet switches,
programmable automation controllers (PACs), and PLCs.
These features, combined with the intuitive, interactive 3D
format of the new Factory Visual tool, provide users with a
comprehensive and convenient resource for identifying facility
improvement opportunities, exploring various product groups, seeing
how Schneider Electric solutions would function in their facility,
and navigating directly to respective product ranges on the RS
website.
"When customers can see every aspect of their factory floor all
at once and how each of our core industrial automation and control
products would function in their own facility, they can make
better-informed decisions about products crucial to improving the
efficiency, safety, reliability, and resilience of their
operations," said Jannet Betancourt,
Digital Marketing Manager – Industrial Automation at Schneider
Electric. "So, we're very pleased to provide access to our new
Factory Visual tool on the RS website, where customers can not only
