Machine handles of the MG-x-Tx-TRIO IOLINK series are made of natural-colored anodized aluminum and handle legs are made of black powder-coated aluminum. The profile was specially designed for the installation of electronic assemblies to integrate additional functions.
The polycarbonate diffuser, specially developed for LED applications, ensures a homogeneous signal surface for feedback and signal LEDs.
The function handles also provide additional self-diagnosis functions. The self-diagnosis includes continuous monitoring of the signal surface LEDs, monitoring of the function of the buzzer, overtemperature and its logging. In the event of an error, an error event is output via IO-Link, which can be taken into account in the higher-level controller. An operating hours counter and error event counter complement the diagnostics, which can be accessed at any time via IO-Link. This enables new, predictive repair and maintenance concepts.
In addition, you can parameterize the signal lights in a variety of colors and signal functions, as well as the frequency and tone intervals of the integrated piezo buzzer via the IO-Link interface at any time.
The connection is made on the back of any IO-Link master via a 5m PVC / PVC cable with an open end or an M8 connector.
