The inductive coupling systems from SMW have set a new standard in clamping and gripping technology. They transmit energy and signals across an air gap, eliminating the need for cumbersome cables. This allows the coupling systems to connect moving and stationary components and exchange sensor signals between the application and the control level of an automation system. With its C40 Automation, SMW offers an inductive coupling system for interchangeable applications. The wireless transmission of energy and signals enables the integration of moving components, such as grippers or interchangeable pallets, into a digital factory via the PLC.
