The signals from sensors and transducers must get to the controller, for Automation to do its work. Often, unfortunately, the sheer variety of signals makes the necessary cabling complex; but today, BALLUFF proposes an ideal solution!
Balluff's new IO-Link solution allows to connect sensors and transducers in a uniform way, with a simple standard based on traditional non-screened 3-wire industrial cable - a technology with the significant advantage of not requiring any kind of retrofitting - and works independently of the kind of field bus in use. Once thus connected, Balluff sensors and transducers can communicate directly; settings reside on the controller, which can easily transmit them to other sensors, eliminating the need for a teach.in phase, and shortening setup times in case line modifications are necessary. Furthermore, the systems' reliability and efficiency reach far higher levels, and machine downtime is drastically reduced.
In the same way, the IO-Link system effects constant diagnostics, which raise productivity - and significantly reduce maintenance costs!
