Why actually IO-Link?
IO-Link is a standardized communication technology. You let the sensors and actuators do the "talking". Simply plug in the cable and off you go. IO-Link is a digital point-to-point communication device that can "understand" any fieldbus. Sounds simple? It is! IO-Link is a long-term investment, innovative and economical!
Reduce your costsConfigurable sensors and actuators reduce the variety of types required. This cuts back on complexity when purchasing and saves space in your warehouse. |
Realize innovative machine conceptsSmart devices need continuous communication with each sensor and actuator to realize their full potential. This expands the possibilities for developing more innovative machinery and systems. |
Shorten commissioning timesIO-Link communication runs using unshielded cables and uses industry-standard connection plugs. This saves time and hassle when replacing a device. |
Increase the productivity of your machineryIO-Link devices identify and configure themselves automatically. This simplifies replacement of defective components and reduces downtime to repair machinery and systems. |
Revolutionize your maintenance and repairsIntelligent IO-Link devices provide functions for self-diagnosis. This enables new, predictive repair and maintenance concepts. |
