Impressive numbers from PI's latest node count audit. PROFINET devices exceeded 20M, PROFIsafe continued a very positive trend, IO-Link achieved a record in two regards: device count and growth.

PI showcased its first TSN integration demonstration at Hannover Messe 2018. From a user perspective, the demo subtly exhibited a very interesting and unique feature...

IO-Link is the first technology for communicating with sensors and actuators below the fieldbus level to be adopted as an international standard. With this technology you will now be able to go wireless with IO-Link!

The IO-Link Community developed a method for implementing IO-Link into OPC UA in 2017. Learn more about the further seamless integration of sensor data into MES and ERP systems; currently being performed in the OPC Foundation.

Join us in Hall 9, Booth D68 at Hannover Messe 2018! Learn about: PROFINET@TSN with a live demonstration, how PI is approaching Security, and where OPC UA fits in with a new video. See you there!

The combination of PROFINET plus OPC UA plus TSN provides a recipe for success as the boundaries between conventional ISA95 levels are blurring. PI is working hard to ensure our networks enable the future: Industry 4.0.

PROFINET is widely used in various factory automation applications all over the world, with products from a myriad of vendors. But how is this possible? Read this article to learn more about PI's support of interoperability.
