IO-Link Safety: Transforming the Future of Safety Communication and Diagnostics
With manufacturing companies moving into industry 4.0, data generated on the plant floor is increasing in importance. IO-Link has been a great success in reducing installation cost, providing greater flexibility and increased data to the user while keeping the communication universal. The machine safety market has many of the same needs as the standard machine control. The systems need easier installation, which includes wiring simplification and simplification of product configuration. Installers are also looking to have fewer components to stock while still having the flexibility to use the best product for the application.
