With the gradual increase in the number of connected devices in the factory, coupled with the huge growth in the amount of data from field devices and the changing technology landscape, companies large and small must quickly adapt to the changes in the digital world, and Industry 4.0 is facilitating this process of digitization.

Future-proof Weidmuller OMNIMATE® 4.0 squirrel-cage on-board connectors with innovative SNAP IN squirrel-cage connection technology enable extremely fast connection, speed up the assembly process and take the wiring process to a whole new level of development, enabling customers to complete installation and maintenance with ease and obvious reliability. SNAP IN squirrel cage connection technology goes beyond the advantages of common in-line technology, and cleverly uses the “rat catching principle” connection method to improve efficiency by at least 60%, while helping customers quickly achieve digital transformation.

Weidmuller’s OMNIMATE® 4.0 squirrel-cage on-board connector solution has a modular design that allows customers to combine different signals, data and power requirements like building blocks through WMC software or the easyConnect platform. Assemble a connector solution that meets your needs and receive your custom samples quickly, greatly reducing the time and effort to communicate back and forth with Weidmuller for fast, easy, secure and flexible self-service:

Simple: Without the use of tools, even for the flexible wire without crimping end, it can be directly inserted to achieve the connection.
Firm: A firm connection that can be heard! You can confirm that the connection is firmly established with a clear “click” sound.
Economy: Greatly increase the speed and cost savings of installation and maintenance processes by minimizing time and material costs.
Born for automated wiring: Innovative SNAP IN squirrel cage connections make fully automated wiring a reality.
Convenience: Built-in test holes and levers and buttons for opening the connection point make detection, disassembly and wiring super convenient.
In addition, with the Weidmuller WMC product configuration software, you can assemble and order the on-board connectors you need online yourself in just a few clicks. At the same time, the new modular concept is designed to achieve rapid delivery within 72 hours. SNAP IN connection technology is already used in many WeidMuller products, including OMNIMATE® 4.0 on-board connectors for PCBS, Klippon® Connect terminals, RockStar® heavy-duty connectors and photovoltaic connectors in squirrel cage products.
