In a significant advancement for the industrial automation sector, Siboni and CoreTigo announce their continued cooperation, utilizing CoreTigo’s IO-Link Wireless technology, within Siboni’s servo motors.
By integrating CoreTigo’s IO-Link Wireless technology, Siboni created the PL4 series, of wireless, planetary gearbox, electronic drive brushless motors. These low-voltage, compact solution motors, are highly energy efficient while offering superior control precision, making them perfect for accurate industrial applications.
IO-Link Wireless Inside
The integration of CoreTigo’s TigoAir 2 embedded system-on-module into Siboni’s servo motors is a leap forward in intelligent motion control solutions. This enables the mission-critical information required by industrial professionals to maintain optimized production lines. Siboni’s IO-Link Wireless enhanced motors are suitable for various application fields, such as packaging machines, rotary tables, industrial robotics, logistics, mobile applications (including AGVs and LGVs), and smart transport tracks.
These enhanced motors feature numerous advantages:
• Real-time Wireless Control:
Cable-free control of the servo motor which increases flexibility and reduces the complexity of deployment and maintenance. With a 5msec latency, it offers the performance of a wired industrial-grade connection, without the wires.
• Advanced Sensing Capabilities:
As rapidly and continuously rotating motors are subject to various effects, it’s crucial to keep track of their performance, monitoring numerous variables, while machining. Using IO-Link Wireless allows this in an integrated and seamless manner, without having to put the production line to halt for analysis. This includes the ability to sense, transmit, and analyze information from a variety of sensors, including temperature, vibrations, and humidity, for optimization and predictive maintenance.
• Wireless Connectivity to Any Automation System:
Harnessing IO-Link Wireless for Siboni’s PL4 servomotor series eliminates the need for complex wiring. Additionally, it allows seamless integration with various industrial communication protocols, such as PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, and OPC UA.
• Efficient Data Management:
Pre-processing algorithms are implemented within the motor, limiting data payload and transmitting only essential data to the PLC. This prevents the PLC from traffic overload while allowing the full range of data to flow from the IO-Link Wireless Master to cloud and enterprise applications aggregating all the information.
• Comprehensive Analytics:
Standard statistical algorithms such as RMS, Variance, Kurtosis, and FFT can be implemented easily, enabling advanced analytics and intelligent insights.
