PROFIBUS is used to connect field devices such as distributed I/O station or drives and other HMI to automation systems like SIMATIC S7 PLCs or PCs.

SINUMERIK CNC controller, MASTERDRIVE MC, SIMODRIVE 611U, SIMATIC PLC, Positioning Motors POSMO, PROFIBUS-DP Absolute Encoders and other related field devices equipment can communicate each other over PROFIBUS-DP. For this purpose, the communication will be syncronised by a PROFIBUS master through appopriate communication processor (CP). For some PLC CPUs, such communication processors have been integrated.

This willl ensure a real integrated automation system for your Machine Tools and Production Machines.

PROFIBUS networks can be configured with different transmission media for a wide range of applications.

• Electrical data transmission using shielded twisted two-wire cable with circular cross-section as standard
• Optical data transmission using fiber-optics cable with glass or plastic fibers for indoor or outdoor areas, drum cable or halogen-free version.
• Wireless data transmission via ILM (Infrared Link Module) with a range of 15 meters.
