Enabling The Smart Factory with IO Link
OMRON
Smart Factories & IO LinkIO Link IntroductionUser BenefitsIO Link HardwareTechnical Information
Smart Factories & IO LinkHow IO link supports the smart factory concept Real time data collection from the
lowest level Communicate and escalate this
data for instant analysis in controller / IT
Automatically and instantaneously re-configurable
Supports flexible and customised production
Automatic fault alerts Monitor down to product level for
predictive / preventative maintenance
IO Link IntroductionWhat is IO Link?
Communication technology for sensors and actuators
Point-to-point communication 3-Wire connection Open vendor protocol IEC 61131-9 (international
standard)
Full communication
IO Link IntroductionWhat does IO Link do?
IO Link allows status information to be read from the device
Information beyond on/off status
Configuration parameters can be transferred to the sensor
configuration parameterscan be transferred
status information can be read
IO Link IntroductionIO Link Architecture
• on/off status• analogue values • status information• configuration parameters
Bidirectional accessDownload: Parameters and
optionsUpload: Process data and
diagnostics
IO Link User BenefitsKey Business Drivers
Reduce machine downtime Enable predictive / preventative
maintenance to reduce machine faults
Reduction in changeover time Enhanced machine commissioning
efficiency
IO Link User BenefitsEasy Machine Troubleshooting >> Reduce machine downtime Failed / error sensor detection Wire break or short circuit
detection Instantly identify the location of
the error Instantly identify the product
which has an error Fast device changeover through
automatic parameter download
IO Link User BenefitsLight Level Monitoring >> Predictive / Preventative Maintenance Dirt on a sensor causing
unstable measurements can be detected for preventative maintenance.
Misaligned sensor can be detected before operation failure
Operational time can be monitored for predictive maintenance
IO Link User BenefitsProximity Warning >> Predictive / Preventative Maintenance
Detect excessive proximity to the sensor via a dedicated status bit
Monitor when target is outside of stable detection area
Identify mechanical issues before they cause a machine fault
IO Link User BenefitsAutomatic Configuration>> Reduction in Machine Changeover Time
Configuration data can be sent to sensors automatically for machine changeover
Eliminating the need for manual intervention
Reducing the possibility of manual setting errors
Reducing the time & complexity of machine changeovers
IO Link User BenefitsI/O Check >> More Efficient Machine Commissioning
Automatic network IO check provides instant detection of incorrect sensor type or wiring errors
Guided information supports fast resolution to errors
IO Link User BenefitsBatch Configuration >> More Efficient Machine Commissioning
For serial machines all devices can be automatically configured from master program file
Eliminating the need to configure individual devices on each machine build
Reducing commissioning time of machinery
