IO-Link sets the new communication standard

All levels of automation systems technology require efficient parameter data handling and systematic diagnostics. Therefore, integration of sensors and switching devices into your automation system network is essential. IO-Link — the innovative interface for the last meters of the process — offers new options to achieve this goal.

                                    IO-Link closes the gap in communication on the last steps to the process

                                    Consistent automation is only possible with sensors and actuators. The smart connection of sensors and substations to the control level ensures precise and profitable production. The communication standard IO-Link is ideally suited to this purpose. Integrating all components is simplified by IO-Link in switchboards and IO-Link on the field level. They ensure maximal consistency and efficiency on the last steps to the process and thereby seamless communication.
