Digital Fiber Sensor

FX-550L - Panasonic Industrial Devices Sales Company of America

Panasonic IO-Link technology makes it possible to continuously collect and process data and to control the sensor. This allows users to implement predictive maintenance and to monitor operation in machines and assembly lines. Processing the multitude of data requires users to invest in know-how and time. Panasonic has developed a self-diagnosis function for each sensor type. This function sends sensor data via IO-Link to a higher-level fieldbus, thus informing about the state of the sensor directly. This way, the amount of production data and the work needed to analyze the data is reduced.
