With immediate effect, steute do Brasil, the Brazilian subsidiary of steute Schaltgeräte GmbH & Co.KG, will be the exclusive distributor in the Brazilian market for products and systems made by the R.STAHL group. In this important market, this signifies a strategic partnership between two international specialists for explosion protection, both with a focus on state-of-the-art technology and top quality.
To avoid failures during routine work due to hot metal splashes that damage the power or signal cables, a wireless safety foot switch using Steute “sWave 2.4 GHZ-safe” technology has been chosen. It greatly increases reliability while being easy to install and flexible.
At the SPS IPC Drives 2014, steute will not only be exhibiting new switchgear ready for serial production from its business divisions Automation, Extreme and Wireless; we shall also be addressing the question of which tasks switching devices will have to assume in the industrial production of tomorrow, i.e. after the fourth industrial revolution.
