Always know your machine status CONTINUOUS AND LONG-TERM PRODUCTIVITY ASSURANCE To implement predictive maintenance, repair or replacement work, information about the condition of the sensors, process chain and workpieces is essential. Continuous condition monitoring of machines while they are running provides information in real-time and ensures proper control and utilization of the production processes. This lowers costs while at the same time optimizing productivity. Machine monitoring enhances machine operation while also directly improving development and design. The monitoring...

Products and systems with monitoring functionality VIGILANT, PRECISE, EFFICIENT The Balluff sensors developed for machine monitoring can be directly installed in the desired application or simply retrofitted. Balluff distinguishes between diagnostics-capable sensors and sensors for process monitoring. The former monitor their own condition, whereas the latter are designed for monitoring ambient conditions such as pressure or temperature. INDUCTIVE SENSOR WITH IO-LINK INTERFACE BES04FK INDUCTIVE POSITIONING SENSOR BIP001M CAPACITIVE SENSOR FOR LEVEL SENSING BCW0004 STACK LIGHT WITH ACOUSTIC...

Injection molding PRECISE AND ROBUST FOR COMPLEX REQUIREMENTS MAINTAIN TOOLS BASED ON CONDITION Injection molding is characterized by high expenditures for tools and a requirement for the most economical processes possible. Your tools need to be optimally deployed and utilized so they work efficiently and do not fail. This is where Mold-ID from Balluff comes in: the autonomous system enables condition-based tool upkeep without the use of cumbersome tool logs. It identifies every single tool including the wear parts and stores all the relevant information automatically so that it can be...

Machine tools THE HEARTBEAT OF METAL WORKING DECENTRALIZING INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY MONITORING TOOL CLAMPING Traditional star wiring from the machine controller to the individual sensor is complex and costly. Fieldbus modules are significantly simpler and more economical to use. Designed for all commonly used fieldbus systems, they enable the use of many controller types using the same wiring topology. With IO-Link they are also ready for Industry 4.0 – the exchange of data across all production levels. Tools which are not perfectly located in the motor spindle cannot machine workpieces...

HIGH MACHINING QUALITY AND OPTIMAL TOOL UTILIZATION Balluf f smart safety IDENTIFYING TOOLS IN THE MAGAZINE MATCHING AND TRACKING WORKPIECES BIS C RFID systems in low frequency or BIS M in high frequency from Balluff always provide the CNC controller in milling machines and machining centers with the correct tool data. Reliably identified and transmitted parameters form the basis for optimal tool management. Unlike with error-prone, manually kept tool logs, data is continually recorded when loading and unloading the tool so that continued use of the tool can be controlled. The actual tool...

HIGH PROCESS RELIABILITY AND QUALITY QUALITY ASSURANCE AT THE ROLLING STAND BIS M industrial RFID systems from Balluff enable automatic recording and identification of the rollers. RFID tags can be directly attached to individual rollers. This allows you to verify whether the right rollers are being used or if roller pairs actually match. Reworking of the rollers can also then be documented. The RFID handheld reader stores important information and is used for mobile communication from any location.

Drive technology HIGH ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND QUALITY MONITORING TOOL CLAMPING DISTANCE OPTIMAL POSITION FEEDBACK FOR LINEAR DIRECT DRIVES By using the series BIP inductive positioning systems from Balluff you can perform clamping distance monitoring even when the clamping mechanism rotates. These systems detect the position of metallic discs which travel laterally past the sensor. We offer positioning systems for different travel distances to meet your precise needs. Data can be processed flexibly using IO-Link, switchpoints or the analog interface. An additional temperature output helps in...

Factory Automation SIMPLE NETWORK TOPOLOGY FOR HIGH SYSTEM AVAILABILITY EFFICIENT AND RELIABLE POWER SUPPLY Automation involves critical applications with high requirements for quality, long service life and diagnostics capability. This is why our Heartbeat® power supplies were developed: A Heartbeat® status LED tells you locally what the present load and utilization situation is, the degree of device wear as well as the remaining service life of the power supply. The IO-Link interfaces allow all the essential parameters to be read and evaluated in higher level diagnostics systems. SMART...
