Lenze / Rittal
Alliance for power distribution and drive technology
Lenze and Rittal have entered into a technology partnership to jointly lead power distribution and drive technology into the future. RiLineX forms the basis as the new standard platform for busbar systems and inverters from Lenze.
"Lenze sets the pace in automation and, with its triad of electromechanics, electronics and software, has an eye on customers' processes far beyond the components. This suits Rittal and makes the company an excellent technology partner in the RiLineX ecosystem," says Ulrich Engenhardt, Chief Business Units Officer at Rittal.
"With the RiLineX system platform, Rittal is setting new standards for power distribution in the enclosure. By using Lenze inverters, we are extending this benefit to drive technology and thus creating more compact solutions for our customers," adds Dr. Marc Wucherer, CEO Lenze SE.
