Photoelectronic Sensors with IO-Link
Photoelectronic sensors can contactlessly detect objects or count them, measure distances and detect colors, contrasts or luminescence with light. Thanks to the IO-Link interface, these sensors enable seamless integration into automation systems and offer extended diagnostic and parameterization options.
Ultrasonic Sensors with IO-Link
Ultrasonic sensors are insensitive to dust, dirt and moisture. Thanks to IO-Link technology, the sensors can be easily parameterized and monitored, enabling flexible adaptation to different applications. Ultrasonic sensors are particularly suitable for reliable detection and distance measurement of transparent or irregularly shaped objects, such as for level measurement.
Inductive Sensors with IO-Link
Inductive sensors detect metallic objects through electromagnetic induction. Versatile designs, housing materials and long switching distances ensure a wide range of applications. With IO-Link, not only can the switching distance be set precisely, but status and diagnostic data can also be read out in real time.
Fluid Sensors with IO-Link
Fluid sensors detect parameters such as pressure, fill level and flow in liquid or gaseous media. The IO-Link interface enables precise monitoring and control of these processes. In addition to real-time data, the sensors offer advanced diagnostic capabilities that help to detect malfunctions early and minimize downtime.
Software
In combination with an IO-Link USB master, the IO-Link software enables quick and easy configuration of the sensor parameters and also simplifies the evaluation of extensive process data for optimizing production control.
During installation, the wTeach2 software automatically detects all compatible sensors which are connected to the system via the corresponding interface. This enables convenient configuration of the sensor parameters via the graphical user interface as well as parallel evaluation of the process data from several sensors.
