Is the io-link system easy to maintain?

Answers

Top answer

The Io-link system is great for maintenance because the system self-diagnoses and sends information about potential downtime.

IO-Link devices can provide information about their basic status, consistently avoiding downtimes.

Any of the devices can report increased issues with any sensor and thus request maintenance, resulting in service that is need-based instead of frequent preventive maintenance.

The parameter settings are stored in the host automation system and automatically downloaded once the device is exchanged.

Conveniently there is diagnostic information is sent over the line at processing data, thus devices can be identified as a problem and replaced.

This way of functioning is reducing the cost of spare parts due to the parameter settings capability and monitoring the diagnostics.
