Automate Robots

Benefit from minimal downtimes

Modern robot systems need many sensors – primarily in the robot arm. However, mass must be limited to ensure proper dynamics and minimize energy consumption. Expensive wiring of multiple cables makes it difficult to achieve high efficiency.

Thanks to IO-Link, difficulties like this are a thing of the past. A standard M12 connection is all you need to ensure the function of the robot – no need for special connectors. I/O modules and valve terminals are easily linked and complexity is reduced.

Inductive couplers provide you with quick tool changes by sending both data and power simultaneously over an air gap. With plug-and-play, the new tool can be quickly connected and is automatically parameterized by the controller via IO-Link. Instead of struggling with cable breaks, you benefit from high flexibility and minimal downtimes.
