Saab-Scania, Falun, Sweden

In the Swedish town of Falun, located 200 km northwest of Stockholm, Saab-Scania manufactures truck axles. After being manufactured, the heavy axles are automatically cleaned, dried, painted and transported on over conveyor systems.

In this plant, valves, Ventilator motors, paint robots and conveyor belts are driven, pressures are measured and temperatures are monitored. Along with other INTERFACE components, the VARIOFACE-PLC wiring concept from PHOENIX CONTACT has proven its worth here. In this plant, easy-maintenance front adapters for the 1/0 cards as well as multi-position system cable sets together with specific interface modules provide for quick, polarized and space-saving cabling.
