Flexible control units for optimised production processes

In modern industrial environments, efficient and flexible control of production processes is of crucial importance. Decentralised control units play a key role when it comes to controlling and monitoring machines and systems directly on site.

Particularly in large production facilities or networked systems, where a central control system is often no longer sufficient, decentralised solutions that can be operated quickly and intuitively are in demand. These systems must be seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructures and at the same time be adaptable and robust enough for different areas of application.

Whether in the automotive industry, in logistics or in mechanical engineering – flexible operating units are an advantage wherever production processes need to be monitored, controlled or adapted.

They enable personnel to act directly on the machine, to rectify faults or to make adjustments without having to travel to the central control system, which takes time. In addition, modern control solutions are increasingly being equipped with sensors and actuators to enable comprehensive data analysis and process optimisation. Efficiency, safety and user-friendliness are at the heart of this, to ensure optimal production.

Decentralised control units from RAFI

The new E-BOX XL offers versatile solutions for decentralised operating units in mechanical and plant engineering, robotics and automation, and intralogistics. With its slim housing design, simple screw mounting and up to six installation points, it is perfectly tailored to the requirements of modern production environments.

Both variants – MODULAR and IO-LINK – are characterised by a robust design (protection class IP65) and a wide operating range (-25 °C to +70 °C), making them ideal for demanding environments. The key strength of the E-BOX XL lies in its flexibility, coupled with quick and easy commissioning.
