Siemens - 8WD46 configurable signal column
High system availability and efficient engineering with this flexible signal column. Each segment individually configurable.
Siemens has further expanded its portfolio of SIRIUS 8WD4 signal columns with a new high-performance signal column, which is electronically configurable as standard. Making it particularly easy to adapt to individual application requirements.
Combining modern industrial design and robustness for both indoor and outdoor applications, the 8WD46 signal columns provide reliable signalling of various operating states. To this end, they offer a complete range of signalling levels and functions.
In addition to individual settings, users can set pre-programmed modes, such as variable fill level or full-surface signalling.
Clear and unambiguous signalling not only makes applications safer; users also recognise incidents faster and can solve potential problems in time.
This significantly reduces response, waiting times and downtime. As the columns consist of a single unit, users also benefit from a simplified ordering process.
Highlights at a glance
- Efficient engineering through electronic configuration;
- Optimal communication and 3-wire connection through optional digital interface (IO-Link)
- Integration into TIA Portal via IO-Link;

Sekisui AlveoRead moreFoam producer Sekisui Alveo has a large factory in Roermond. To support production and maintenance, warehouses and distribution points with thousands of different items are spread across the various halls. Think spare parts, personal protection equipment and consumables. The company cooperates intensively with itsme for management, such as recently with the step-by-step introduction of vendor managed inventory (VMI) for the grab stock of mechanical items.

Heliox - Charged for DeliveryRead moreHeliox, a developer and manufacturer of charging systems for electric buses and trucks, was already working with itsme when production still took place in the Netherlands. Today, production has shifted to Slovakia, Portugal, and Moldova, and is also happening in the US. itsme remains the “irreplaceable” partner for the supply of electrical components and cable harnesses.

BLOK System SupplyRead moreBlok System Supply and itsme have maintained an intensive relationship for many years. Early last year, this was further deepened with electronic data exchange via the Smart Connected Supplier Network. ‘It saves an enormous amount of time and reduces errors. We always have real-time information automatically.’ However, time for personal contact is not saved. ‘That is precisely what makes itsme a very nice party to work with.’
