ifm RFID systems are optimised for quality assurance and production control, e.g. for identifying tools or monitoring production steps. What used to be written in the documents accompanying the goods is now stored on electronic transponders. The advantage is that the information cannot get lost and is available anytime, anywhere.
DTE103 evaluation unit with EtherCAT and integrated web server
EtherCAT is the fastest Ethernet fieldbus technology with exceptional performance. The free network topology flexibly adapts to the plant structure. Switches and hubs are not required, which saves costs. Devices can be exchanged during operation, which ensures high plant uptime, and the automatic address allocation simplifies setup and device replacement. All evaluation units have an integrated web server, which means users can log in via an http address to access the device for setup, diagnosis and monitoring – specialist IT knowledge is not required.
The RFID evaluation units DTE10x have four antenna connections, which can alternatively be used as digital I/Os. The antennas are connected via standardised M12 connectors. The standard pin assignment of the I/O connections ensures that common sensors or actuators are directly connected and powered from the RFID evaluation unit. The RFID system platform is widely used in production for identifying tools or monitoring production steps. Further applications can be found in quality assurance, in the automotive industry as well as in automation and conveying. Easy use and flexible parameter setting allow the user to solve each identification task precisely and without problems.

Industrial Wireless
Online teaser: Many radar sensors for collision avoidance are limited to detecting the distance, and thus only output one dimension, as a measured value. Turck Banner’s new MR15-Q80 radar scanner delivers genuine 3D data, and thus significantly improves the mapping of objects and spaces, giving developers and system engineers a greater degree of freedom.
