CLPA, the organization promoting open network
as well as your business partner.
Through the diffusion activities of the CC-Link and CC-Link IE on a global level, we support vendors and users.
Under the motto “CC-Link, the open field network, will become world's de facto standard”, CLPA was established in November 2000. Ever since, the Board of directors, Marketing Task Force and Technical Task Force have joined forces to help the vendors to develop compatible products and the users to build up FA systems. |
