Bologna, November 24th, 2020. Datalogic, a global leader in the automatic data capture and factory automation markets, is pleased to announce the new S8 IO-Link sensor models.
These sensors come in two models, featuring specific advantages:
All the new S8 IO-Link sensor models feature IO-Link, to allow data exchanges between Smart Sensors and a Master interfaced to any fieldbus and communication network. From a customer perspective, this means reduced standard wiring, more data availability, easier commissioning, quick diagnostics and replacement. Users obtain very relevant benefits to leverage, including better quality, reduced downtime, greater flexibility, and productivity. In addition, its double channel output connectivity allows customers to configure the new S8 on the fly while machines are operating at full speed. These characteristics lead to a considerable decrease in the TCO (Total Cost of Ownership). The new S8 photoelectric sensor line supports the latest IO-Link protocol (V1.1.2), with data storage and Smart Sensor profile.
S8 Smart Sensor advantages include immunity to interferences, short response time, and very low jitter added on the full frequency output, keeping the operating frequency and detecting precision always constant.
S8 IO-Link is the perfect solution to enable digital manufacturing in Automotive and Electronics assembling, Food and Pharma processing, Packaging machinery and Intralogistics.
