Reer Micron measuring light curtains are ideal for applications where it is necessary to accurately detect, measure, and recognize objects. Micron provides real time information to a PLC or PC. For example, it detects the presence or absence of objects, perform a count, detect a position, detect a shape or a profile and measure dimensions.
What is IO-Link?
IO-Link is a point-to-point serial communication protocol. This protocol (open standard based) allows the bi-directional exchange of data from sensors and the IO-Link Master.
The IO-Link master can transmit the received data over fieldbuses, networks or different buses, making the data accessible for other devices (i.e. PLC or interfaces).
Each IO-Link sensor carries an IODD file (IO Device Description) containing device information and features.
