| Sensors represent the sense
organs for machines and systems that run automated production processes. SIMATIC
Sensors from Siemens comprise a complete range of sensors systems for a wide
variety of applications in the manufacturing industry.
With innovative, intelligent products that
are integrated in Totally Integrated Automation, SIMATIC Sensors ensure increased
productivity, availability, efficiency and cost effectiveness.
SIMATIC Sensors – Productivity
You Sense |
New animations for typical applications of photoelectric and sonar proximity
switchesFind out more about the variety of applications and advantages of our proximity switch portfolio. |
New product animations for the SIMATIC PXS240Find out more about the advantages of the ultrasonic Proximity Switches SIMATIC PXS240 with the new product animations. |
The new photoelectric Proximity Switches: SIMATIC PXO830 GL, SIMATIC
PXO840 LV70 and SIMATIC PXO650 L90L offer special capabilities for the handling of delicate tasks, but also for the distance measuring over long distances. |
Well-known
manufacturers of sensor as well as automation technology have gotten together
under the roof of the PROFIBUS & PROFINET International (PI) to develop a
universal communication standard for sensors and actuators. |
Reference
Machine tools today live off tool change intervals that are as short as possible.
Crucial for their success is also
the assurance that the required tool is placed in the magazine at the right spot
and at the right time as well as sorted back without collision. For this purpose,
the tool change systems of a leading supplier are equipped with ultrasonic
proximity switches. |
Reference
Rotary table systems halve cycle times and are therefore standard today in many
industry sectors. However, the rotating table is a considerable safety risk for
operating personnel. |
New Compact UHF Readers for Production and Production-related LogisticsWith two new compact RFID readers SIMATIC RF620R and SIMATIC RF630R the range of SIMATIC RF600 UHF-readers will be enlarged. |
New version 2008 - the New SIMATIC RF-MANAGER Software |
The SIMATIC RF610M handheld terminal consists of a powerful, rugged and flexible handheld computer and an integral read/write unit for the SIMATIC RF600 RFID system. |
Reference
At its Dingolfing plant in Germany, BMW produces cars for its 5, 6 and 7 Series.
As is standard procedure in assembly, the doors are removed from the vehicle.
The doors then need to be re-fitted to the vehicle in parallel to the assembly
process. |
Reference
Every year, around 250,000 VW Polos roll off the production line at the Volkswagen
plant in Pamplona (Spain). The RFID system Moby I is used to identify the bodyshell
type in the robot cell and select the relevant motion program. |
Reference
In the cylinder head production section at DaimlerChrysler, Germany’s largest
automobile manufacturer, robust and reliable vision sensors from Siemens are
used to identify the fitted parts using a data matrix code. |
