IIoT connects worlds: Seamless data communication between sensor and cloud

Digitalization is finding its way into more and more areas of industry. Technologies such as IO-Link, RFID and Ethernet are increasing the amount of data from the machine environment many times over, while cloud services enable mobile access worldwide. But how do you extract the information that is really relevant to you from the Internet of Things - without overloading networks or exposing protected content? Turck's answer: with networked sensors, efficient edge controllers and simple cloud solutions - in short, with decentralized automation.

On course for success with decentralized automation

Efficiently automated machines and systems minimize costs, ensure product quality and guarantee high availability in production. Break down rigid hierarchies and transfer competencies to local players. Decentralized automation also shortens commissioning and market launch times and simplifies the expansion or relocation of production resources. Modularize your systems and machines - and gain new degrees of freedom for your production.

DIGITAL INNOVATION PARK

The pace of innovation in the field of industrial automation is now faster than ever. Stay on the ball and visit our Digital Innovation Park. Here you can experience - constantly updated - a colorful bouquet of exciting trends and our latest innovations for Industry 4.0 and IIoT. Always worth a visit!

RFID: Sustainable time and cost optimization of production logistics

RFID connects physical objects with data records and IT systems. No matter what type of object you want to link to your individual system landscape - we create the connection.

Sensor technology

Sensors provide important information for almost all areas of industrial automation, e.g. digital and analog signals about positions, flows, flow rates, temperatures, paths and angles. As a co-founder and pioneer of modern sensor technology, we offer the right product range for this. Choose from more than 5,000 proximity sensors, optical sensors, fluid sensors and position sensors for a customized solution for your specific application.

Connection technology

We offer standardized and tailor-made connection components for all requirements in harsh industrial environments. The connection technology range includes couplings and plugs, flanges and bushings, connection cables, fieldbus cables and distributors in numerous designs and versions. Self-assembly plug connectors complete the range so that connections can also be made using existing cables.

Interface technology

Take advantage of the flexibility and versatility that our interface range offers you: compact designs, a selection of different operating concepts and configurations as well as a wide range of functions for isolating, converting, processing, converting and adapting digital and analog signals - in 1 to 4-channel versions, for Ex and non-Ex applications. This provides you with interface solutions, suitably packaged in the required design and equipped with the functionality you need for your application.

Control and HMI

Control and monitor your production seamlessly and conveniently. We have the right automation solution for you - e.g. programmable gateways and HMI operating terminals and controllers.
