Discover Improved Process Quality with IO-Link

Intelligently combining industrial networks with the IO-Link communication standard is the ideal solution for ever faster, more flexible, more efficient and more adaptable production. It provides you with a powerful infrastructure for reliably managing the growing volume of data. This transports your data through the entire manufacturing process and achieves seamless communication from the intelligent sensor up to the Internet. Technology is a significant building block for the factory of the future and for implementing Industry 4.0.

What is IO-Link?

IO-Link is a powerful standard (IEC 61131-9) for setting up intelligent solutions for industrial automation. The digital interface is a fieldbus-neutral, point-to-point connection. It is the first globally standardized IO-technology that communicates from the controller down to the lowest automation level and integrates sensors as well as actuators at the fieldbus level.
