Europe's leader in remote connectivity products and services strengthens its presence in the USA
Pittsburgh, 10 September, 2010 - eWON, a pioneering manufacturer of remote connectivity products for the automation market and leader in its field in Europe, has chosen the US market as the next step in the company's international growth strategy. As of September 2010, eWON is opening a US subsidiary under the name eWON Inc. in Pittsburgh, PA. Dominique Blanc is the General Manager of eWON Inc. He has more than 15 years of experience in remote service and automation products.
eWON offers its industrial clients unique and highly innovative products to help OEM and system integrators reduce their warranty and support costs, improve remote diagnostic and product management, create new operation and service revenues and become a carbon neutral organization.
These days, machines are increasingly sophisticated and specialized, thus requiring experts who are seldom available locally. Manufacturers are shifting from local to global footprint and need to support customers far from their home base. This is where eWON's industrial routers come in handy. The Internet has taken the market by storm. eWON's equipment is an opportunity for companies to make their machines "Internet enabled", so they can keep their machines up-to-date and attractive on the competitive market as well as take full advantage of the Internet to offer new services to their customers. For many companies, maintenance and support is recognized as a key competitive advantage.
With eWON's products and its Talk2M service (a Web-based remote access method that gives single-click Internet access to remote machines, PLC and sites worldwide), OEM/machine builders and system integrators can quickly pinpoint problems on the machine at customer site without interrupting their operations. Service costs are reduced by eliminating costly, urgent on-site visits. Talk2M provides OEMs and system integrators a professional Internet remote access platform over Internet. It offers secure on-demand access to hundreds of remote machines and devices. Combined with eWON's Internet remote access devices, it enables perfect integration with a large variety of PLCs and automated devices.
eWON's products were the first to innovate and bring new solutions to their manufacturer customers. This technical and product expertise combined with manufacturing excellence has made eWON the European leader. The experiences and knowledge eWON acquired in Europe will allow the company to reach US customers with outstanding products and continue to innovate in this ever-evolving communication market. eWON is already a very strong player in a number of industries: packaging, laser cutting, energy management, utility, solar energy, wind energy, water filtration, etc.
eWON's Internet gateway devices are smart, user-friendly and fully compliant with Rockwell, one of the largest providers of industrial automation, power, control and information solutions as well as other world leading PLC manufacturers like Siemens and Schneider.
Multiple communication channels (LAN, Cellular, Phone Line), historical logging, Web HMI and scripting capabilities make eWON products very powerful and flexible in addressing a number of industrial communication scenarios.
"For eWON, the USA is a fantastic market with many successful manufacturers who need to reduce their service costs and better serve their customers locally and globally as well. Our objectives are to strengthen our position with local presence and better serve our customers on the American market. With our products and services, our clients can remotely identify problems and support their equipments, respond quickly to customer inquiries, be proactive and eliminate costly on-site visits.", says Dominique Blanc, General Manager of eWON Inc.
