    Compact, Lightweight IO‑Link Masters

    Banner’s innovative serial IO-Link Masters are available in either two-port or four-port models. They each serve as a gateway for connecting IO-Link devices to a Snap Signal IIoT system, or other control systems on the market. The IO-Link Masters transmit machine data, process parameters, and diagnostic information via Modbus RTU, which can connect directly to any Modbus RTU interface, including the Snap Signal DXMR90 Industrial Controller. This configuration makes it possible to send IO-Link data to cloud platforms and SCADA systems. 

    IO‑Link Meets IIoT

    The addition of IO-Link Masters to the Snap Signal product line enables users to collect more real-time data from a greater number of devices. While IO-Link is a standard point-to-point communication protocol for communicating with sensors and actuators in plant and factory automation processes, Banner’s IO-Link Masters collect signals from sensors and other devices, allowing users to optimize operations and make better data-driven decisions.

    Key Advantages

    Compact Form Factor

    R45C and R90C IO-Link Masters feature a compact, lightweight housing, which helps for weight-sensitive applications such as robotic end-of-arm tooling. Unique mounting brackets are available to stack multiple IO-Link Masters in one area while minimizing the overall footprint.

    Scalable Design to Accommodate Expanding Production

    Banner's IO-Link Masters can accommodate IO-Link signal collection for IIoT implementation on a large scale, but they also offer a cost-effective solution for users who only have a small count of IO-Link devices. This approach gives users the flexibility to start on a smaller scale and add more IO-Link connectivity as their operations expand over time.

    Seamless Device Replacement

    If devices connected to the IO-Link Masters need to be replaced due to damage or any other reason, the device can be swapped out with an identical part, and the IO-Link Master will auto-recognize and rapidly configure the new sensor with the correct sensor settings for the application. Because IO-Link sensors do not require any special or complicated wiring, they can be connected to the new IO-Link Masters using cost-effective industry standard unshielded three-wire M12 cables.

    Improve Productivity with Actionable Data

    Snap Signal is an easily deployable, complete portfolio of modular IIoT hardware and software that delivers actionable machine data from across your factory. More than just another flavor of IIoT, Snap Signal is an overlay network that can capture data signals from virtually any source. It seamlessly converts these sources to a single industry-standard protocol, then distributes the data for quick and easy consumption. Snap Signal offers you the flexibility to monitor key equipment within one area or monitor your whole facility.
