Sick Flexi Line interface

Thursday, 01 May, 2014 | Supplied by: http://www.sick.com/au/en-us/home/products/product_news/safe_control_solutions/Pages/safe_networking.aspx


The Flexi Line interface networks modular machines and provides the flexibility demanded by modern machine concepts. By networking up to 32 Flexi Soft stations, it is possible to map modular machine structures in a consistent and efficient way - even at a distance of up to 1000 m between two Flexi Soft stations.

Configuration is quick and easy: the process image - with a data width of up to 96 bit - needs to be defined only once for the entire system. Information is either shared with neighbouring stations only or transmitted to the entire system. This division makes communication more efficient and shortens response times. Another important advantage is that the communication works without addressing using ‘neighbourhood detection’.
