Design for the Environment

Designing for the manufacturing environment requires a keen knowledge of industry standards to ensure the infrastructure supports various environments on the plant floor. Considerations such as shock and vibration, temperature, washdown areas, exposure to acids or oil mixtures, and electromagnetic noise must be considered when selecting solutions to support these harsh environments. Panduit offers the physical infrastructure solutions for harsh environments which support new technologies, allowing manufacturers to share information in new ways to support increasing production demands.
