If you are developing automation products for the global market you know that the winning solutions for future proof projects share one key feature: interoperability with devices from other suppliers. This can only be achieved by establishing key partnerships with a number of automation vendors.
A highly successful way to fast-track the connection with multiple companies and the development of interoperability agreements is by becoming a member of the CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA). By doing so, you will join a large community of industry-leaders, including more than 3,800 partners and 340 manufacturers of automation solutions from all over the world.
Furthermore, you will receive extensive support to develop, ensure conformity and certify your devices to ensure compatibility with over 2,000 types of products that use the CLPA’s family of open industrial networks. This includes CC-Link IE TSN, the next-generation open Gigabit Ethernet technology with Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) capabilities.
The list of advantages continues. Once your products are ready, the CLPA provides substantial assistance in accessing key markets as well as boosting promotional activities, also thanks to its vast network. In addition, you will be able to stay up-to-date with the latest technological advances and trends as well as shape the future of industrial automation by joining CLPA’s working groups.
If you’re convinced the CLPA membership can help you increase your competitiveness, what should you do next?
There are two different entry options for anyone interested in joining the CLPA: registered and regular membership.
Option 1:
The first is free of charge and, from a technical perspective, gives you access to technical specifications for the CLPA’s family of open industrial networks. This alternative is ideal if you want to get to know the organization and see how it can be beneficial to your business. If you choose to become a registered partner, you will be able to upgrade your involvement, becoming a regular member at any time.
Option 2:
If you are ready for a greater commitment, the second option is right for you. This is a paid membership, which gives you the right to use CLPA’s technologies, develop, manufacture, and sell products that are compatible with the association’s family of open industrial networks, as well as list them in CLPA’s catalogue. Also, regular members can also take part in marketing programs to help increase acceptance.
