Using Balluff allows you to implement intelligent production – smart manufacturing – step by step, because we accompany you professionally into the digital world. We stand at your side with our expertise, whether your objective is traceability and transparency or smart communication via IO-Link. We ensure automated asset management, efficient robotic equipment and reliable condition monitoring. The significance of robotics...

Smart communication IO-LINK – THE FOUNDATION FOR INTELLIGENT MANUFACTURING Intelligently combining industrial networks with the bi-directional IO-Link communication standard is the ideal solution for ever faster, more flexible, more efficient, and more adaptable production. IO-Link not only integrates all the sensors in the fieldbus level, but also enables lean wiring and equipment concepts, in which even analog signals can be transmitted noise-free by digitizing them. We offer you a high-performance infrastructure for reliably managing your growing volume of data. This transports your data...

TRANSPARENCY FOR THE SMART FACTORY 2 Bundle sensor data and simplify network structure Traceability is becoming increasingly important for efficient production. Traceability creates transparency and is indispensable for the factory of the future with self-controlling processes. Traceability means recording every step of a process chain so that it can be traced. This is accomplished with RFID, which automatically documents the production history of all production parts and all of the materials and equipment used here - including time, place, and process. You have real-time access to all the...

Quality assurance AUTOMATING QUALITY ASSURANCE Industrial image processing is indispensable for modern, flexible manufacturing. It ensures product quality and enables efficient manufacturing processes down to lot size 1. Balluff solutions pave the way to a versatile, high-performance range of applications for automated quality assurance. The possibilities for industrial image processing offered by our growing product portfolio are virtually unlimited, whether for visual quality inspections, identification or positioning tasks. And best of all, our image processing products are simple to set...

Asset management ENSURE MACHINE AVAILABILITY AND PLANT OPERATION Efficient asset management supports high machine availability and reliable equipment with minimal stoppages. Maintenance effort is drastically reduced while increasing production flexibility. Asset management solutions from Balluff provide you with reliable and always up-to-date information – using RFID as the key technology. For example, our tool management solutions eliminate error-prone, manually kept tool logs. In addition, our plug-and-play retrofittable versions for tool identification make optimal tool utilization easy....

1 Multi-functional sensor increases equipment productivity Condition monitoring Unscheduled stoppages and faults in the production process can be avoided using the new BCM multi-functional condition monitoring sensor from Balluff. You can even reduce failures in critical areas such as bearings, gear units, fans, pumps or control cabinets to increase plant productivity. This intelligent sensor provides you with condition information, which you can use for automating cost-intensive manual inspections. This condition data is also an important component of the IIoT for implementing smart and...

AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS FOR OPTICAL PRODUCTION PROCESSES Robotics has become an indispensable aspect of industrial manufacturing. Production robots automate repetitive actions, reduce error rates to negligible levels and allow employees to concentrate on more valuable tasks. It is no wonder that the significance of robotics has increased in manufacturing. Automated production solutions ensure high efficiency, safety and quality, and give you a competitive advantage. Modern robot systems need many sensors – primarily in the robot arm. However, they require minimum mass in order to ensure the...
