Wireless Safety | Schildknecht AG

Wireless SAFETY enables the wireless transmission of safety-critical signals in industrial applications, ideal for mobile systems such as driverless transport systems and robots. Our DATAEAGLE wireless modules support the safety protocols: PROFIsafe, CIP Safety and openSAFETY. They provide reliable communication and protect against errors to maximize the safety of machines and systems.

These wireless technologies can make production plants safer, prevent errors and ensure high availability of machines and systems. Mobile operating units, driverless transport systems and robot applications with these technologies benefit from our Wireless SAFETY radio systems.

"We were very satisfied with the quality and reliability of the radio systems used and especially with the support from Schildknecht. With the radio modules used, the required safety standards in accordance with DIN 56950-1 1 could be achieved."

Anthony Grower, Marketing Specialist

"The elevator was approved for operation by the TÜV shortly before the Four Hills Tournament without any rework. After the first two years, we found that the elevator's availability was almost 100%."

STB Control Technology Beck

Not all wireless systems are the same: standard wireless solutions are out of the question for industrial companies. Who has time for redundancies and latencies?

Our intelligent radio decouples the real-time interface from the radio interface: pre-processed data packets reduce the necessary bandwidth and redundant data packets are not transmitted in the first place. As a result, the radio links are not overloaded and fieldbus errors are avoided. In addition, the real-time capability of the PLC and its maximum bus speed can be maintained.

The result is the best possible productivity and cost-effectiveness of the systems. Win. Win. Win.

Safety & different Fieldbus technologies

Supported are: PROFIsafe for PROFINET and PROFIBUS, CIPsafety for EtherNet/IP and openSAFETY via UDP. PLC-to-PLC communication or PLC to remote IO - just as you wish. Components from any manufacturer can be connected quickly and easily.

Genuine plug & play - ideal for retrofitting

Install, connect, get started. The simple installation without configuration is designed to be immediately available and functional even in existing systems. Without installation. Without integration into the hardware configuration. And without hassle.

High reliability & availability

Intelligent radio decouples the real-time interface from the radio interface. This reliably suppresses interference and keeps the connection running. And runs. And runs.

Focus on data

Pre-processed data packets reduce the necessary bandwidth and radio links are not overloaded. This ensures a reliable connection and completely eliminates fieldbus errors.

Cost-effectiveness and worldwide use

Maintenance-free systems are the future - lay the foundation with Funk. Once set up, you don't need to carry out maintenance or worry about machine downtime. Everything is done. It just works.

Diagnosis & personal support

Simply make it even easier: We are happy to support you in setting up your wireless solution and are also available for you at any time after commissioning. With the integrated internal device diagnostics, you always know what's going on.

Wireless beats cable: simple installation and absolutely flexible connections - from simple to multipoint or complex applications. Do you want to replace your existing cable solution? Then the point-to-point connection with quick changeover is the right choice. Need something a little more complex? The multipoint connection with several slaves offers the greatest possible flexibility.

This makes data transmission a reliable and loss-free player for industrial companies with high requirements. In a nutshell: maximum flexibility with maximum cost-effectiveness.
