TigoBridge A1/B1 - IO-Link Wireless Class A/B Bridges
TigoBridge A1/B1 are IO-Link Wireless Class A/B Bridges with an IP67 enclosure. It seamlessly and easily converts IO-Link devices to IO-Link Wireless. The TigoBridge houses an internal antenna and two M12 connectors for data and power. TigoBridge is a device that connects a wired IO-Link device, via IO-Link Wireless, to an IO-Link Wireless Master. A device can be an IO-Link sensor, IO-Link actuator or IO-Link multiport I/O hub.
TigoBridge can be used in a variety of industrial applications, such as:
- Machine retrofit, for converting sensors (such as vibration, air flow) to IO-Link Wireless devices for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance
- Rotating components, such as rotary tables where the Bridge can be connected to clamps, valves and sensors on board the rotary table
- Enhancing independent transport track and conveying systems by connecting the Bridge to devices such as grippers and vacuum pumps on the movers
