Your way into the world of Industry 4.0
IO-Link is the first globally standardized IO technology (IEC 61131-9) to communicate with sensors and actuators.
IO-Link is the first globally standardized IO technology (IEC 61131-9) to communicate with sensors and actuators.
The powerful point-to-point communication is based on the long-known 3-wire sensor and actuator connection without any additional requirements for the cable material. Therefore, IO-Link is not a fieldbus, but the evolutionary advancement of the existing and proven connection technology for sensors, actuators and thus also for control tops of the latest generation.

Industrial production is being asked to use fewer resources, become smarter and keep equipment productive for longer. At GEA, that is changing how innovation happens: engineering, customer insight, digital expertise and service come together earlier – when a solution can still be shaped at its core.
