IO-Link is a standardized communication protocol that bridges the gap between sensors and
automation systems. It enables intelligent, bi-directional communication, providing real-time
data exchange, diagnostics, and parameterization.
Data is the foundation of Industry 4.0 and the access to additional sensors data through IO-Link
provides real-time process insights to optimize operations, improve product quality and reduce costs.
Unlock the full potential of sensors with IO-Link:
– Remove complexity with simplified architecture, automatic parameter settings and error free
integration option
– Reduce your cost with simplified installation and reduction in cables and sensor types
– Shorten commissioning time with quick configuration and standard cables
– Increase machine uptime and productivity with continuous monitoring of device and sensor performances
IO-Link Master
IO-Link master is the interface between sensors and PLCs, connecting sensors through IO-Link communication & PLC through the Fieldbus network. IO-Link master enables high speed bi-directional data exchange between the controller and the IO-Link devices, such as sensors that can share data, events & notifications directly to the controller and to the cloud via OPC UA & MQTT protocols.
