Cooling units have strong emphasis on connectivity
Capturing, transmitting and processing data lies at the heart of what has been dubbed 'the fourth industrial revolution'. It’s one of the reasons why cutting-edge connectivity has become so important in factories and similar environments to facilitate new, smarter ways of working, such as predictive maintenance.Connectivity is a feature of Rittal’s new cooling units and chillers and its recent collaboration with Siemens MindSphere and...
"eRamp" strengthens Germany and Europe in power electronics
One of the most important European research projects for energy efficiency, “eRamp”, is coming to a close. Over the past three years, 26 partners from business and science have explored innovative electronics components for using energy even more efficiently. Their focus was on the rapid introduction of new production technologies, such as packaging technologies for energy-saving chips. The eRamp project covered the entire power elect...
