Wear-free energy and data transmission in module and pack assembly
Inductive couplers for flexible and efficient automation solutions
In the assembly of battery modules and packs, especially in robotic production lines, the reliable transmission of power and data between moving and stationary components is crucial for smooth and efficient production. Slip rings traditionally used for this task are subject to mechanical wear, which can lead to failures and increased maintenance costs. Balluff's BIC inductive couplers offer a wear-free solution that transmits power and signals safely and efficiently over an air gap of up to 5 mm.
Features
- Maintenance-free and wear-free due to contactless transmission, thus significantly increasing system availability
- Simple installation and commissioning thanks to plug-and-play and M12 plug connection, minimizing downtimes
- High degree of protection (IP67) for safe operation even under harsh environmental conditions
- Powerful energy transmission up to 120 W with integrated over-temperature protection
- Support for unidirectional and bidirectional signal transmission, ideal for modular manufacturing processes
