Safe communication affects every level of your system. You can rely on our drive solutions with safe communication that is either integrated or can be expanded as part of a modular system – in both central and decentralized installation concepts.
...on all levels
The PROFIsafe profile is currently synonymous with safe communication: It gives your systems and automation concepts the functional safety you want and need.
All of our drive components, both mechanical and electronic, speak the “PROFIsafe” language. The components speak this language between themselves and also for communication with the control level.
Therefore, place your trust in the technology of one of the world’s leading manufacturers of drive technology and make use of the communication capabilities of our components. You can do this whether your machine or system is installed centrally or decentralized. And of course, it also available worldwide.
