Update for the IO-Link Community

On this year’s IO-Link Members Assembly on June 08, 2016 in Frankfurt / Germany the more than 50 participants were updated on the latest developments and trends for IO-Link. Besides the new profiles Firmware Updated and Smart Sensor Profile the topics wireless and IO-Link safety were on the agenda. But also information about the newly established Test Labs as well as a licence model for non-members convinced the attending members. Highlight was the report of the 100st IO-Link member Weiss Robotics about their development of a gripper with IO-Link. Compelling conclusion of Weiss Robotics - Implementation of an IO-Link stack using the specification is feasible and the integration of IO-Link into new products is easy.
