IO-LINK Products

RAFI IO-LINK products offer users a comfortable start. They can be quickly integrated into users’ existing environment by using standardized M12 connectors. Simply connected and individually parameterized, RAFI's control and signaling devices open countless possibilities. With the IO-LINK versions of the TILTED DIAMOND+ and E-BOX users are already prepared by today for the challenges of tomorrow.

The road in automation is clear: more networking and data with less complexity. For this reason, IO-LINK has established itself as a uniform, completely bus-independent interface on the sensor and actuator level. RAFI wants to live up to its reputation as a technology leader and actively accompany its users on this path into the future.
