UK manufacturers targeting new growth opportunities in North America are being urged to avoid costly mistakes when trying to meet specific technical standards for the territory.
PP Control & Automation (PP C&A), which provides strategic manufacturing outsourcing solutions for over 20 of the world’s largest machinery builders, has launched a new educational campaign on UL508a, a technical standard for industrial control panels in the US.
Working with specialist partners Rockwell Automation, Lutze and Product Approvals, the company is set to host a number of detailed virtual presentations that will be available to view or download, followed by an interactive Q&A platform. These presentations follow a series of blogs and short videos that have been viewed more than a thousand times by manufacturers keen to avoid the expense associated with rectifying machines to make them UL compliant, and any subsequent disruption that could impact the customer.
