We offer solutions for business from different industries
Our partners
SENSORS
Fundamental components for process control, Gefran's sensors measure main variables such as temperature, pressure, position and force. The main element of the sensors is produced in cleanrooms, in environments protected from any kind of pollutant and equipped with highly technological work and control instruments.
COMPONENTS
Three product lines are dedicated to indicating and controlling process variables: static groups, regulators and electronic indicators. A range of constantly evolving devices capable of providing innovative solutions and responding to the needs of process optimisation and intelligent management of energy consumption. These devices complete the range of support services offered and faster delivery times, the key factors that make Gefran a competitive and reliable partner.
AUTOMATION PLATFORMS
Gefran designs and manufactures automation control systems offering machine constructors a wide range of specific components (Unit Control Panels, Operator Interfaces, input/output systems, as well as programmable logic controllers and industrial PLC). This dedicated division also designs and develops solutions that adapt to customer projects, offering unique and exclusive "turnkey" solutions.
MOTION CONTROL
This range of products, designed and manufactured at the Drive and Motion Control Unit of Gefran in Gefrenzano (VA), consists of continuous and alternating current electronic drives and electric motors, including a complete range to fully satisfy the needs of industrial automation. The line also includes a series of inverters for the domestic and industrial photovoltaic industry.
Positioning Systems
Positioning Systems
Pepperl+Fuchs utilizes different technologies to provide industrial positioning systems for virtually any positioning task. Our product range includes:
- Inductive Positioning Systems (PMI)
- Distance Measurement Sensors
- Position Encoding System (WCS)
- Data Matrix Positioning System (PXV, safePXV)
- Position Guided Vision (PGV, safePGV)
- Electronic CAM-Switch Controller (PAX)
Inductive Positioning Systems (PMI)
Various industrial positioning systems for high precision detection of linear movements and rotations are available. Our inductive positioning systems are resistant to external contamination. Need to connect your controller? Our inductive positioning systems provide configurable outputs and data interfaces.
Distance Sensors
Distance measurement sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs use the optical concept of Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT). With modern PRT, distances to 300 m with accuracies of 0.1 mm are easily achieved.
Position Encoding System (WCS)
For positioning over longer travel paths, the position encoding system (WCS) excels in systems with curves, switchpoints, inclines, or declines. With measurement lengths to 327 m, WCS is suitable for position detection in warehousing, material handling and automated conveyor systems, crane positioning, elevators, and much more...
Data Matrix Positioning System (PXV, safePXV)
The Data Matrix Positioning System uses Data Matrix codes, which are arranged side by side on a code reel as an information carrier. The reading head, based on modern 2-D camera technology, captures these two-dimensional codes and evaluates the exact position in directions X, Y, and Z—up to 100,000 meters. As safe variant "safePXV", for the first time, the positioning system realizes safety level "SIL 3/ PL e" with only one single sensor.
Position Guided Vision (PGV, safePGV)
The versatile PGV camera simultaneously scans and processes data from three different floormounted initiators: the solid “travel path” navigation stripe, the high-resolution absolute positional band, and the decision-initiating control code (identification) segments. Turns, stops, and starts are among many actions initiated by 15 mm x 15 mm data matrix control code squares that are also installed alongside the tracking strips. As safe variant "safePGV", the positioning system realizes safety level "SIL 3/ PL e" for the first time with a single sensor.
Precision Positioning (PHA)
When the safe and efficient transport and positioning of goods and production assets is needed, PHA vision sensors are the right choice. Especially designed for precision positioning of stacker cranes, the sensors include a variety of powerful features.
Electronic CAM-Switch Controller (PAX)
PAX is a non-contact electronic CAM-Switch Controller and is used with the PMI inductive angle sensor. Easily capture machine shaft position without expensive, time-consuming mechanical cams! Configure up to 14 switch outputs and 6 analog outputs via the intuitive, integrated software.
