The sensors are suitable for Industry 4.0 applications and offer not only high-precision measurement capabilities, but also comprehensive information for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.
The IMU F99 inclination sensor offers stable inclination values for mobile use on construction machinery or robots, with an integrated gyroscope compensating for accelerations, making it a superior choice over static sensors.
The safePXV noncontact absolute positioning system only requires one camera-supported sensor since it provides intrinsic redundancy through multicolored Data Matrix codes.
With the IQH3-FP-V1 and IQT3-FP-IO-V1 RFID read/write devices, Pepperl+Fuchs is introducing two new high-performance products for solving identification tasks, combining the advantages of high-frequency RFID with a unique sensing range, which is space-saving in a modern, compact enclosure.
The next stage of Industry 4.0: With the "Manufacturing-X" initiative, the Industry 4.0 platform is creating a sovereign data space across industries and companies - with the aim of enabling multilateral cooperation along supply chains and taking digital value creation processes to a new level.
Have you ever tried to hang a picture horizontally using a spirit level? Yes, it's easy — the bubble of the spirit level indicates when the picture is hanging horizontally. Have you ever tried to keep the bucket of a wheel loader horizontal while the machine is accelerating, braking, or travelling over a gravel path or potholes? No, of course not — neither a spirit level vial nor even a static inclination sensor is able to provide a meaningful value in this case! The new IMU F99 inclination sensor from Pepperl+Fuchs provides reliable inclination values for dynamic applications like these because it is able to immediately filter out external interference (e.g. potholes). The unique software adjustment via CAN bus also ensures excellent angular quality, even when the driving behavior of machines varies greatly.
