Manufacturing companies today face several key challenges:

  • Shorter product life cycles
  • Wider product portfolios
  • Increasing customer demands for customization and individualization

To remain competitive, especially in high-wage countries, businesses must focus on increasing efficiency. Standardization stands out as the most effective approach to achieving this goal.

Advantages of Standardized Components

Standard components offer numerous benefits:

1. Faster development through knowledge reuse
2. Easier quality assurance due to familiarity with parts
3. Reduced susceptibility to errors
4. Lower operating costs from simplified component storage and easier replacement availability

However, how can standardization be effectively combined with the need for flexible production? The solution lies in developing comprehensive product ranges that offer a complete and optimally coordinated selection. This approach allows customers to easily find their ideal solution within an established range.

Key Questions When Selecting Sensors

As users of sensor technology, you should consider:

  • Which sensor principle aligns best with your application requirements?
  • What are your performance specifications (e.g., accuracy, measurement speed)?
  • What housing dimensions and mounting methods do you require?
  • Which communication interfaces will you use?
  • Do you need a flexible or fixed solution?
