Compact Terminals SCTSi IO-Link
Flexible, Fully Networked Vacuum Generation
Variety, optimization of production processes, and continuous energy and process control are the challenges of the future. In order to meet these demands, powerful, flexible and energy-efficient vacuum systems are required. The answer is our Compact Terminal SCTSi IO-Link, a compact unit of several vacuum generators for simultaneously and independently handling different parts with a single vacuum system.
Central compressed air and power supply for up to 16 ejectors
Direct connection to the controller via only one data line
Modular design with different, individually controllable vacuum circuits for handling different workpieces
Easy configurability of process and device parameters via IO-Link or NFC
Reduction of compressed air consumption by up to 80 % thanks to automatic air saving function
Your Individual Configuration
The compact terminals SCTSi offer the flexibility to design the handling process entirely according to your needs. Thanks to innovative configurators, our sales staff can create a custom-made solution for you in no time at all.
In addition to an offer for your individual product, you will also receive a CAD model.

Near-Field Communication (NFC)
- Reliable communication via an energy-neutral point-to-point connection
- Visible data – Both statistical data (such as the serial number) and dynamic process data (such as switching points) can be read out
- Parameterization option – An app can be used to parameterize the SCTSi IO-Link directly from a smartphone

Networking in Industry 4.0 Systems
- The IO-Link connection means that recorded data can be viewed and used all the way up to the control level, which allows for bidirectional parameterization and diagnostics in all conventional field-bus systems
- Condition monitoring increases system availability by providing detailed analyses of the system’s condition and early detection of faults
- Predictive maintenance improves the performance of gripping systems
- Energy monitoring optimizes the vacuum system's energy consumption

Automatic Air Saving Function
- Switches off the suction function once a safe vacuum value has been reached until the next cycle or until the vacuum falls below the safe vacuum value
- Various configuration values and air saving settings can be programmed separately for each ejector
- Reduction of compressed air consumption by up to 80 %

Integrated Electronic Sub-Bus System
- Electronic control can be implemented with just a single cable
- Comprehensive data communication via IO-Link and near-field communication (NFC)
- All ejectors can be separately programmed and controlled

Eco-Nozzle Technology
- Eco-nozzle technology provides a considerably higher suction rate with minimized compressed air consumption for energy-efficient vacuum generation
Integration
Simplified Integration in the Control Level
(1) Connection of SCTSI via IO-Link master
(2) Connection SCTSi via Profinet / EtherCAT / Ethernet/IP
