IO-Link is the standard for point-to-point communication between sensors, actuators, and field devices.
It simplifies the integration and management of heterogeneous components, ensuring interoperability and maximum efficiency in industrial automation systems.
Thanks to its open nature, IO-Link can be used in numerous fields: from machine control to packaging, from food & beverage to logistics, and in sectors where reliability and precision are essential.
With IO-Link, it is possible to optimize predictive maintenance, reduce machine downtime, and improve overall system performance.

IO-Link & ADFweb.com
ADFweb.com offers a complete range of IO-Link protocol converters, designed to ensure maximum flexibility and make integrating the IO-Link world with the main fieldbuses and IIoT protocols easier than ever.
The range is divided into three versions:
DIN rail mounting: customizable configurations for the number of channels and type (Class A or B), compatible with Ethernet, EtherCAT, Serial, PROFIBUS, CAN and all ADFweb protocols.
Machine-mounted: available in Carbon Black (IP67) and Light Grey (IP69K), in 4- or 8-channel versions fully programmable via software.
Each IO-Link port can be configured at any time as Class A or Class B.
The Ethernet version is MultiProtocol: it allows IO-Link signals to be converted into PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus TCP, while always keeping IoT MQTT and OPC UA protocols active.
Variants with CAN, RS485, PROFIBUS, and EtherCAT ports are also available.
IO-Link Slave: ideal for reverse applications, it allows the integration of slaves from other fieldbuses into an existing IO-Link Master, creating hybrid and scalable architectures.
ADFweb.com products stand out for:
maximum configuration versatility;
resistance in harsh environments (IP67/IP69K);
free and intuitive software for quick configuration;
total flexibility thanks to MultiProtocol OT/IoT support.
With ADFweb.com’s IO-Link converters, integration becomes simpler, faster, and more reliable: a scalable solution ready to support every evolution of automation systems. Read more
