Experience the first available IO-Link Safety system live at SPS

Plant and machinery is becoming increasingly interconnected. At the same time, the requirements of functional safety, availability and flexibility are increasing. With the first available IO-Link Safety System, Pilz is helping users to consider these requirements together. The system enables safe communication up to field level and connects sensors, field devices and controllers via standardised point-to-point communication.

For machinery manufacturers and operators, this means less complexity when implementing safety concepts. Safety-related devices can be integrated efficiently, while detailed diagnostic data ensures greater transparency during operation. Faults can be located more quickly and plant maintenance can be more targeted. At the same time, the system supports flexible machine concepts that can be adapted to new requirements and developed further.

Today, with the interplay between the IO-Link Safety Master, safe field devices and configuration tool, Pilz already offers a complete system available for safe communication up to field level. Users benefit from an end-to-end solution that simplifies engineering and commissioning and paves the way for a future-proof safety architecture.

At SPS Pilz will be demonstrating how this works in practice. Book your ticket and arrange and appointment with an expert.
