Custom Wiring System Program
1492 Custom Wiring Systems opens up a new capability for the Allen-Bradley customer. When standard wiring systems do not do the job, customers can ask for modification or a completely new design that fits their application requirements.
Through the Custom Wiring System Program, customers can provide their design input for an interface module or cable with no up front fees and a minimum order quantity of only thirty-five (35) units.
In addition, we use our Fastrack Customer Solutions capabilities which can have a design in the customers hands within 8 to 10 weeks. The custom designs are done directly between the customer's engineer and the Rockwell Automation engineer. We have removed the middle man so we can get the design right the first time. Each design is approved by the customer prior to starting manufacturing of the customers custom product. This is done through the customer reviewing bills of materials, schematics, and assembly drawings and signing them off. The distributor sales person in kept in the loop but direct customer contact is a must during the design cycle. The process starts with the distributor and customer completing the Request for Quote for Custom Interface Module and Cable form. This form is then e-mailed into www.abcustomwiringsystems@ra.rockwell.com for processing within Rockwell Automation Marketing and Engineering.
UL and CSA certifications are also possible on the custom modules. Minimal fees may apply.
