The future of industrial automation

High process reliability in the control of machines and robots increases plant efficiency. Baumer position sensors and code readers are well suited for this requirement.  Systems are ready for operation more quickly because the built-in “smart” functions save time from design-in to commissioning.  The comprehensive Sensor Toolbox by Baumer for object detection, identification and positioning allows the selection of the most suitable sensor in each case.  Applications across the entire factory automation spectrum, such as assembly and handling, packaging or intralogistics, can be solved.

Precise in-line distance measurements and image-based feature checks ensure consistent product quality as well as increased efficiency in the production process. Compact all-in-one sensors with integrated measuring tools solve individual measuring tasks without additional programming effort. Thanks to graphical setup tools and live measured value analyses, this is particularly easy with sensors from Baumer.  A large selection of interfaces are available, thus making integration into automation systems is possible with ease.

• Accurate and stable long-term image analysis
• Reliable detection and evaluation of high-speed processes
• Simple and flexible integration even in environments with limited space
• Fast and cost-effective integrated image processing in all sectors

During mechanical and electrical integration, numerous design and measurement parameters guarantee optimum dynamics and accuracy of the system. Whether in traditional factory automation or in control system engineering, Baumer offers the right interfaces, first-class signal performance and durable encoders even for harshest of environments.

With our broad sensor portfolio, excellent technology, and application know-how we can solve your automation task quickly and smartly. Baumer sensors provide the required signals, data and information in the appropriate form and quality.  Whether you need conventional analog, digitally via IO-Link or Industrial Ethernet. This enables flexible and cost-efficient 24/7 production. An important part of this overall solution are software tools to quickly understand and use the functional diversity of smart sensors. Industrial Ethernet sensors from Baumer offer convenience with integrated web servers. IO-Link devices can be evaluated, visualized and parameterized independently of the manufacturer via the Baumer Sensor Suite. These tools ensure intuitive use of the sensor functions, accelerate engineering, commissioning, and maintenance. This enables the full potential of smart sensors to be exploited.
