The use of RFID for machine access control and operation is nothing new. Depending on the application, different frequency ranges are used, either LF, HF, or UHF. Recently, there has been a trend that HF read/write heads with IO-Link are increasingly being used for precisely these applications. In this blog article we take a closer look at this topic and show you possible use cases.
The camera-based 2-D universal vision sensors of the VOS series offer flexible configuration and open up the possibility for users to solve particularly complex automation tasks as well as multiple tasks with just one vision sensor. In this blog post, we will show you which software features the VOS sensors offer and the applications for which they are suitable.
From the recording of the process variable to the evaluation in the control system, many errors can occur that can lead to unwanted process states. In this blog post you can find out how isolated barriers from Pepperl+Fuchs detect line faults in the signal circuit without additional wiring.
The 2-D LiDAR sensors of the R2000 series feature a gapless all-around visibility of 360°. In this blog post we’ll take a closer look at the R2000’s hardware and software features and how these can help solve your individual application.
The 7500 series is a type Z/Ex pzc purge and pressurization system that enables non-rated electrical equipment to be used in hazardous areas. This blog article shows you how to configure the 7500 system components, i.e. control unit, manifold valve, and vent.
One of the best ways to prevent dust explosions is to thoroughly clean the work environment of combustible dust to ensure the safety of the plant and workers. However, equipment operating in enclosures in the plant must also be protected. In this blog post, learn where explosive dust atmospheres occur and how they can be avoided through purge and pressurization systems.
With our ViatorCheckBT software, you can troubleshoot the Viator modem from a PC or HART-capable device. In this blog article we guide you step by step through the troubleshooting process.
Used intelligently, RFID can perform numerous tasks on the automated guided vehicles (AGV)—we present three possible variants in this blog article.
With the PXL+ technology developed by Pepperl+Fuchs subsidiary VMT, however, 3-D point cloud images can be enriched with any number of sensor data. Thanks to this valuable additional information, the gap between human and machine vision can be closed...
The modular cable pulls from Pepperl+Fuchs master a variety of challenges where other sensors reach their limits. In this blog post, you will find out which cable pull is the right one for which application.
