Control cabinet-free automation, image processing for mobile robotics and automation technology for the food industry will be the topics that Ifm electronic will be focussing on at this year's SPS. The food industry in particular places high demands on the components used.
This also applies to the Automation technology where a high degree of protection is required is. The company is showcasing the new IO-Link masters from the PerformanceLine series for the industry, which are specially designed for such applications and fulfil protection classes IP65, IP67 and IP69K. The M12 sockets are made of stainless steel and the seals are made of EPDM. Become Several masters in one application the power supply can be cascaded with a daisy chain via L-coded M12 cables. This saves material, time and costs during installation. The IO-Link master and all connected sensors can be conveniently parameterised using the moneo|configure SA software.
Suitable cables that also fulfil the high requirements are needed to connect sensors. Ifm now offers a comprehensive range of cables with IEC 61076 L-coded connectors.
