Through a wide range of EtherCAT Terminals with advanced functionality, Beckhoff integrates measurement technology directly into the standard I/O system – delivering high speed, high bandwidth and precise synchronisation capabilities. Modular measuring terminals are available for applications that range from the measurement of temperature, power, current and voltage up to complex mains monitoring or Condition Monitoring. The signals are acquired via electrically isolated channels and sent to the controller for further processing. In order to promote more efficient engineering in these areas, Beckhoff offers numerous time-saving TwinCAT software libraries.
