Weidmuller IO-Link Master Module and Configurator

 

Using the IO-Link communication system to connect intelligent sensors and actuators to the controller significantly reduces the amount of time required. Sensors can connect quickly and without any errors using a pre-assembled cable, for example, while automated commissioning is also made possible by means of downloading parameter sets.

Balluff RJ45/RJ45 Double-ended Ethernet cables for industrial applications

 

With the drive toward connected machines and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), more automation than ever is being connected via Ethernet. In industries from automotive to metalworking to food and beverage, Ethernet has become the data connection of choice. While wireless networks work well in office environments, a hardwired connection is still preferred for many applications in manufacturing to ensure connectivity and data availability.
