Application examples - conveying
 
 
Conveyor applications can be found in almost all industries. Whether pallets, boxes, workpiece carriers, granular materials, rocks or pipes: ifm electronic has the suitable sensors and the favourably priced AS-Interface (AS-i) wiring system for almost all areas.

Distributed electrical drives can be directly controlled via AS-i, cylinders are triggered via AirBoxes with integrated valves.
