IO-Link for the T.VIS® A-15
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.
Sensors and actuators can communicate
- Process data will be digitally exchanged with high signal quality.
- Components can be centrally parameterized.
- Diagnostic information can be transferred from the valve to the controller.
End to complex wiring
- Standardized and considerable simplified installation.
- IO-Link is fieldbus-independent and can be integrated into all fieldbuses worldwide.

Shifts in food packaging: 4 trends
Thermoforming has long played a central role in food packaging. Now it is facing a major shift. As regulations tighten, materials evolve and costs rise, form fill seal lines must do more than run reliably – they now shape how food stays fresh, affordable and recyclable. Take a look at the key thermoforming trends informing the food packaging and delivery landscape.
Fruit storage at Betko: Control from peak harvest to global delivery
From the orchards of the Cape to store shelves across 40 countries, the South African packhouse Betko has built a business on freshness, timing and reliability. With GEA’s controlled atmosphere refrigeration technology, the company can now store apples and pears for up to 14 months and cut energy consumption by 20%, with a partnership of more than 30 years at the heart of it all.
