Pepperl+Fuchs – Paths to Digital Transformation
Pepperl+Fuchs, a global leader in industrial sensor technology and explosion protection, has been known for decades as a visionary and driver of innovation for cutting-edge automation technologies. At the heart of Pepperl+Fuchs’ research and development are solutions and services that advance the digital transformation of processes and applications toward Industry 4.0.
One focus is industrial communication: with the formation of Pepperl+Fuchs Comtrol, an expanded IO-Link portfolio combines with communication-oriented Sensorik4.0® technology to enable data flow from field devices to control systems and the cloud.
Since digital transformation is also the basis for Industry 4.0 applications in the process industry, Pepperl+Fuchs is working with an international consortium of well-known manufacturers to make Ethernet available for this market. Mobile computing and communication solutions from the Pepperl+Fuchs brand ecom simplify the digital transformation of applications even further. This is how fully networked production systems will gradually become a reality for the entire automation industry.
Pepperl+Fuchs also continues to support conventional applications. A unique, wide-ranging product portfolio provides technologies that support both traditional and future applications.
