Join Our Seminar About IO-Link And Its Uses in Your Automation System - Held at C&E's Upcoming Industrial Automation Show

C&E's Industrial Automation Shows are manufacturer-driven events to enhance our customers' ability to compete by providing world-class automation products and solutions.

These shows share ideas and technology through workshops, new solutions, product specialists, technical support, and supplier representatives.

Join one of the several seminars C&E will be hosting at the shows. Featured this week is the "What is IO-Link And How To Use It In Your Automation System?" seminar, hosted by Brad Hart, C&E Automation Specialist.

IO-Link is an open point-to-point communication protocol that pairs one port of a multi-port IO-Link Master with a single IO-Link Device to cyclically read data or to control an actuator. Using acyclical communications, parameters can be written to the IO-Link Device, and diagnostic information can be received from the device. IO-Link Devices now include proximity sensors, photo eyes, tower lights, motor starters, identification and more. Learn how to integrate IO-Link into both a Siemens and an Allen-Bradley processor, and how to setup simple device replacement.

Come out for this free event, meet our suppliers, bring your questions, and enjoy learning about new products. We will have a show in Murfreesboro, TN on Tuesday, May 16th, and in Louisville, KY on Thursday, May 18th. CLICK HERE to visit our expo page with more information and registration details.

Banner Engineering Simplifies Scalable Safety With the XS26-2 Expandable Safety Controller

Banner's XS26-2 Expandable Safety Controller provides the option to add up to eight I/O expansion modules, making it capable of adapting to a variety of machines, including large scale machines with multiple processes. Due to its ability to interface with a plethora of safety devices, and its design to support a variety of safety input properties, the XS26-2 is considered a simple and flexible safety solution for machine safeguarding.

Banner highlights an application requiring monitoring and configuration of safety devices at the end of line. Challenged with multiple safety and non-safety devices, the XS26-2 Expandable Safety Controller was a good fit for the application.

Safeguarding areas around the palletizers and stretch wrappers can prove to be difficult because it involves multiple hazards. The XS26-2 provides a simple and flexible safety solution for machine safeguarding, making it an ideal answer. It's a scalable safety solution equipped to monitor and provide stop and start functions with multiple safety and non-safety input devices. If the areas become more complex, eight additional I/O modules can be added. There are six expansion modules to choose from, including a variety of safety inputs, solid-state safety outputs and safety relay outputs. With easy-to-use configuration software, employees can have the controller up and running in minimal time.
