From the hydraulic system to the digital drive solution
Networked and highly flexible
Universal sensors and actuators handle any number of tasks and provide information and values in digital format using the standardized IO-Link protocol (IEC 61131-9). An IO-Link master communicates with the fieldbus level and the controller.
The values transmitted also provide information for diagnostics, can be documented and can be directly visualized or analyzed in the cloud.
This solution offers significant IO-Link advantages
Simple installation with pre-assembled standard cables
High level of economy thanks to cost effective unshielded standard cables
Noise-free signals over a digital interface
Ease of handling since the software for parameter setting and service data is manufacturer-neutral
Easy monitoring, analysis and documenting since individual service data are available
(1) Machine controller (2) Analysis, data documentation in the cloud (3) Monitoring, visualization of the acquired data (4) Autonomous axis in the field level (5) Detecting liquid media flow with BFF thermal flow controller (6) Temperature measurement with BFT temperature sensors (7) Valve parameterization via IO-Link (8) Pressure measurement with BSP pressure sensors (9) Continuous level detection BTL magnetostrictive linear position sensors (10) Level monitoring using limit value detection with BCS capacitive sensors
