Programmable encoder through IO-Link

« News
May 5, 2022

IO-Link is a growing standard in our modern world of machine design, which allows for free configuration and diagnostics of your connected devices.

Some of the great benefits of IO-Link are:

Standardized and international communication interface
IO-Link is an internationally standardized and supplier-independent interface, standardized according to IEC 61131-9 which is compatible with all field buses on the market. With the help of standardized profiles, maintenance and commissioning are simplified, regardless of manufacturer and sensor technology.

Cost saving and efficient
This is a cost-effective solution as the interface does not require shielded cables between the units and minimizes the number of downtime of the IO-Link controlled devices since they are easy to configure via your control system, which allows you to maintain and configure the devices based on your needs. With functions that allow data storage, the availability of the application increases, as this allows the change of encoders during operation.

Overview of the system
When several solutions and devices are connected to the same fieldbus, you get control over process data and diagnostics of all your connected sensors.

Our IO-Link encoders from Fenac will help you become more efficient in your machine and / or production.
