Customers will be enabled to meet the demands of Industrial environments including flexibility to customize features to meet specific site requirements. The solutions and software tools can be integrated securely and directly with proprietary applications.
The remote access technology MB connect line has developed will integrate seamlessly with Red Lion automation technology.
