Pepperl+Fuchs Digital Expo - Joining the IIoT revolution
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is revolutionizing the industrial automation market. Previously, only simple switching signals were exchanged locally with a control panel, but detailed status data can now be made available worldwide in the cloud using technologies such as IO-Link and OPC UA. The resulting transparency right through to the sensor or actuator is opening up completely new possibilities for smart applications in the field of Industry 4.0.
Visionary applications such as predictive maintenance and highly efficient production even in batch size 1 seemingly belonged to the distant future but are suddenly within reach. From April 19, you can learn more about the technologies behind IIoT, the innovative IIoT components that Pepperl+Fuchs already offers, and how they can be used to implement specific applications, in the "IIoT" content block, one of the main topics of the fully digital "Digital Expo" by Pepperl+Fuchs. A variety of information materials are available for each of these three topics, including expert discussions, presentations, and explanatory videos.
