To meet the different requirements, Metzneroffers different printing and marking processes: Ink jet printing, thermaltransfer printing and Brady Wraptor printing (more information on page 27).Intelligent softwareTriathlon Soft ® starts with the control cabinet layout and automaticallycalculates the lengths for all the wires, cable trays and cable ducts. Atthe same time, Triathlon Soft ® produces all the data for the printing ofthe cables and the machining of the assembly baseplates. Via an interfaceto its CAE system, the software collects all the necessary data inthe form of wiring lists, sub-assembly lists or terminal lists and processesthem on this basis into a production-orientated layout for the controlcabinet.Triathlon Soft ® is compatible with all commonly-used drilling centresand automatically creates all the data for the mechanical processingof the assembly baseplates. All the NC-data for automatic machiningare produced by working from the construction plan and an optimisedinterface transfers the data to a drilling and milling machine.17
