Here the focus is on the requirement for the system provider to offer integrated solutions. Let us take for example the subject of Industrial Ethernet Networking: alongside the infrastructure elements such as switches and gateways Lütze also offers integrated solutions for cabling of the network. Lütze can supply all the necessary products, from Ethernet cables suitable for use in C-tracks to hubs and switches that can be mounted on DIN rails. This expertise is mirrored again in the application examples that overlap more than one industrial area.
So, for example, Lütze switches can be found just as easily in the semiconductor industry as in the harsh environment of railway vehicles. The list includes further applications in the textile and packaging machine industries.
The DIOPC serves as an intelligent gateway between the popular types of field bus and the Ethernet. A typical example is in greenhouse management where the DIOPC collects and controls signals from up to 10,000 inputs/outputs covering a wide variety of parameters including temperature, air humidity, CO2 content of the air, brightness, humidity of the earth and the condition of the plant fertiliser.
