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 open FA systems.
The Marketing Task Force focuses on increasing the number of CLPA members & products, enhancing global adoption and expanding the use of CC-Link.
The Technical Task Force focuses on management of related technology and coordinates provision of information to members and outside standard-setting organizations.
