Dipl.-Ing. Tietjen GmbH develops air brake systems for the retrofitting, conversion and original equipment of agricultural and construction machinery. In the prototype phase, it is often not yet clear which relay with which functions will later be required for series production. For this reason, the company previously had to purchase a large number of different relays with a wide variety of functions and keep them in stock in order to have the required functions quickly available during the test phase. This required a high logistical effort and equally high costs.

With the multifunction relay by miunske, this effort could be reduced significantly. From now on, the developers at Dipl.-Ing. Tietjen GmbH keep a certain quantity of “standard multifunction relays” in the desired hardware version in stock – and can parameterize them themselves at any time with the help of the miunske programming kit. This way, they only have one component, but they are able to assign the desired function to it at any time. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

  • Mr Öhlschläger-Kruse, project developer at Dipl.-Ing. Tietjen GmbH, and his colleague Marc Wendhausen first became aware of miunske’s MFR at AGRITECHNICA 2019.
  • A short time later, they arranged a digital product presentation with the technical sales department of miunske®. During the online presentation, the technical product features and parameterisation options were discussed in detail ¬- and also tested at the same time.
  • The Tietjen team was particularly convinced by the fact that with the MFR only one component is needed, which has a wide range of functions and can be “parameterise” or set at any time with the help of the miunske programming kit.
  • Another advantage: With the help of the MFR, Dipl.-Ing. Tietjen GmbH was able to significantly simplify its logistical effort in component procurement and reduce the costs for relay purchasing in prototype construction.

Dipl.-Ing. Tietjen GmbH uses the MFR as a time relay for engine compartment cleaning systems and compressed air brake systems. Due to its high flexibility, the use of the MFR is currently already planned for further projects.

„Especially in the prototype phase, the MFR shows its strengths, as we can set and adjust all parameters ourselves until the system works the way we needed it to. This gives us a high degree of flexibility and cost efficiency, because we no longer have to keep countless different relays with different functions in stock.“
