From spring clamp terminal blocks to international success

The company history of WAGO Kontakttechnik goes back to the application for the original patent for spring clamp technology. Heinrich Nagel and Friedrich Hohorst jointly developed a screwless leaf spring terminal with pusher. In the course of the first product development, the two entrepreneurs founded WAGO Klemmenwerk GmbH in Münden. The founding decade was a time of product developments, innovations, and initial successes for the company.

When Wolfgang Hohorst joined the company, new ideas and goals were added to the corporate philosophy - the vision: improved, safer, and more economical spring clamp technology. The product portfolio was expanded to include connectors and solderable terminals with spring connection for PCBs. An example of the innovation-oriented approach of the founders is (1964) the introduction of the first modular PCB terminal with spring connection.

With the CAGE CLAMP® product range, the company revolutionised the market for connection technology and electrical installations. This was followed by product developments such as the first junction box terminal block or the WAGO rail-mounted terminal block with CAGE CLAMP® connection.

In the decades that followed, the company developed into a globally present player - with subsidiaries in France, Japan, the Czech Republic, and India, as well as in many other countries. With the rail-mounted terminal blocks of the TOPJOB®S product series, WAGO optimised its existing spring clamp technology.

Top product categories from WAGO: Automation technology, components for I/O systems and connection technology.

Innovative connection technology (e.g. connectors or rail-mounted terminal blocks), interface electronics (e.g. system cabling and relays ) and automation technology (e.g. sensor boxes and actuator boxes ) are WAGO's central product areas.

Automation technology and I/O modules from WAGO

WAGO offers technology that can be used flexibly and serves to optimise production processes. The range of automation technology includes product solutions such as software, HMI devices and control technology up to I/O modules, as well as sensor and actuator boxes. In addition, the manufacturer's modular and fieldbus-independent electrical components are essential components of decentralised automation systems in industry.

To minimise installation and wiring work, the use of I/O modules is recommended. These enable space-saving and fast wiring of complete I/O systems. This ensures performance and communication exchange in plants and machines.

Connection terminal blocks from WAGO - connection technology for industry

In order to meet the expectations of individual industries, WAGO provides individual product solutions in the area of connection terminal blocks. The electrical components are easy to use, offer safety (during commissioning and after installation), and their application saves time and money.

WAGO's connection terminal blocks can be used to connect single-, fine- and multi-wire conductors quickly and easily. Thanks to innovative product developments in the field of plug-in connections (e.g., Push-in CAGE CLAMP®), WAGO's electrical components prove to be individual and efficient industrial solutions.

Relays for tomorrow's industry - WAGO industrial relays at Bürklin Elektronik

For the planning and implementation of industrial systems, it is of central importance to specifically meet the individual requirements of each industry. Ease of operation and maintenance, minimised investment costs and system protection are decisive factors. The focus is always on the reliability and performance of the respective electrical components.

For this purpose, WAGO provides an extensive range of transmitters, current transformers, power supplies and relays, as well as optocoupler modules and system cabling.

WAGO relays are insensitive to electromagnetic interference fields and ensure isolation between coil and contact set. They extend the service life of other electrical components and ensure high resistance to voltage and current peaks. The relays enable potential-free isolation of the load circuit and promote simple circuit integration.

WAGO Connecting Terminal Block (5-pole) of the 221-415 Product Series

WAGO connection terminal blocks of the 221-415 Series are easy to handle and enable quick wiring in three steps: Open lever, insert conductor and close lever. The conductor terminal blocks are also available with two, three or five connection terminals. Single, fine, and multi-wire conductors can be installed. The simple handling reduces the time required for installation.

A fastening adapter facilitates standard-compliant installation, but individual fixing of the conductors is also possible. In this way, the product can be adapted to the respective needs of the customer.

4-channel digital input of the 750-408 series

.The use of WAGO's 4-channel digital input is recommended for the acquisition of control signals. The signal can be transmitted via sensors, for example. An advantage of the electrical component is the upstream filter to suppress interference. In addition, the field and system levels are galvanically isolated from each other. This prevents electrical conduction between two circuits. Another advantage is the reduction of contact corrosion.

The housing of the electrical component is made of polycarbonate and polyamide 6.6 - this makes the product particularly resistant to mechanical influences (e.g., force) and heat-resistant.

Small switch relay - industrial relay of the product series 788-312

Small switch relays of the product series 788-312 have a reinforced insulation between coil and contacts. This counteracts wear of the electrical components, thus extending the durability of the electronic components. To simplify the assembly of conductors, the product is equipped with the patented Push-in CAGE CLAMP® function.

The universal connection for all types of conductors allows direct setting of the cabling. Conductor range: single-, multi- and fine-stranded conductors from 0.14 to 25 millimetres. The Push-in CAGE CLAMP® allows two connection methods: either the conductor is inserted directly into the electrical component (push-in) or mounted using a tool. To do this, the tool must be inserted at the clamping point to open, the conductor is inserted, and the tool removed again.
