Using Quick Disconnects

Nov. 28, 2011

Is it a good idea to convert to wiring modules and quick disconnects for machine control systems? There look to be advantages for saving time and money when building the machines, for offsite troubleshooting, and for the customers' ease of reconfigurations. We'd like to hear from machine builders about this. Do the time savings offset the extra costs? Do customers see the value?
