We adjust the level of assembly automation to your project – so that you achieve the best result both economically and technically.

The high-precision surfaceCONTROL 3D 3500 snapshot sensor is used for automated optical inspection of geometry, shape and surfaces on diffusely reflecting surfaces. The surfaceCONTROL 3D 3500 is characterized by its compact design and high measurement accuracy combined with high speed data processing. With a z-axis repeatability of up to 0.4 µm, the sensor sets new standards in high-precision inline 3D measurement technology. It reliably detects the smallest flatness deviations and height differences. Two models cover different measuring fields.

The optoCONTROL CLS1000 optoelectronic fiber optic sensor is suitable for use in automation thanks to its variable switching outputs. The CLS1000 is used for reliable position monitoring as well as for position and presence detection. The fiber optic sensor comprises a CFS sensor and a CLS1000 controller. The wide detection and operating ranges of up to 2000 mm make the fiber optic sensor ideal for the detection of components even at great distances. Due to the small design of the CFS sensors, the CLS1000 optoelectronic fiber optic sensor series is particularly suitable for use in confined installation spaces.

The thermoMETER TIM 8 combines the advantages of a robust pyrometer with a thermal imaging camera. Due to its extremely compact size, it can also be integrated into machines and production lines. The spotfinder function enables precise temperature measurements with automatic sensor adjustment. In addition, remote focusing of the lens is possible via a motorized focus. This intelligent spotfinder pyrometer is used in automation, machine building and plant monitoring.

Micro-Epsilon offers a large range of inductive sensors for displacement and position measurement from conventional LVDT sensors and inductive sensors with integrated controller to customer-specific high-volume versions. The induSENSOR displacement sensors from Micro-Epsilon are used in automated processes, quality assurance, test rigs, hydraulics, pneumatic cylinders and automotive engineering.

We consider your individual requirements on process automation and build customised plants and systems for you. For us, process automation means completely mapping all process states, recording all alarm messages and securing access via passwords. By means of process visualisation, the monitoring of your plant or system takes place directly on site and/or from your control room. The plants and systems from IFA Technology enable you to optimally compose your mixtures by means of recipe control. In addition to the dosing quantities, other parameters such as stirring times can also be defined. Comprehensive recording of all batch data in a database makes it possible to output automatic order data in conjunction with your merchandise management system.

IFA Technology considers your individual requirements on waste water treatment and builds customised flocculent systems for you. Flocculent systems for waste water treatment can be used for various fields of application - from the dosing of additives to the filtration of the flocculent. Such a flocculent system can, for instance, be used as a fully automated three-chamber system to produce a solution from dry polyelectrolytes. Flocculent systems from IFA Technology are always implemented according to your individual wishes. In addition to stationary systems, container solutions are also possible.

Smart automation concepts enable us to meet the highest standards of manufacturing. Our products are manufactured in Germany and made in USA, in a cost-efficient manner. Benefit from our production expertise that has been continuously developed over many decades. Mechanical protection, reliable electrical insulation, moisture shielding and heat dissipation - with continuously optimized potting resins (polyurethanes, epoxies, etc.) and potting equipment, PRUFREX is a leader in the field of vacuum potting. When it comes to the safe protection of your electrical and electronic components, our state-of-the-art, automated manufacturing equipment meets all contemporary requirements. The use of specially adapted epoxy and polyurethane potting compounds ensures excellent potting characteristics and the best-possible impregnation of components and coils. These optimised potting compounds also contribute to optimal heat dissipation.

Our fully automated winding centres for fine and self-bonding wire make us the perfect partner for any tasks you require. Our coils are tinned with lead-free coatings (RoHS). To manufacture self-supporting coils, we use self-bonding wire. During winding, the surface of the wire is bonded using hot air. To ensure the coil connections can be soldered, they are then stripped of insulating enamel using a fully automated milling process. PRUFREX is able to make air core coils with wire thicknesses from 0.045 to 1.6 millimetres.

The surfaceCONTROL 3D 2500 snapshot sensor is used in 3D measurements for geometry, shape and surface inspection on diffuse reflecting surfaces. The sensor can be used in both automated in-line and at-line inspections as well as in the metrology room. The fringe light projection allows direct 3D measurement. The sensor is characterized by its large measuring field as well as a high measuring range depth of up to 300 mm with a repeatability of up to 3.0 µm. The captured images are transferred to the external controller where they are processed into 3D data. Three models cover different measuring fields.

The optoNCDT 1220 is the entry-level model for precise measurements in industrial automation. This compact laser triangulation sensor measures displacement, distance and position with high precision. Based on an excellent price/performance ratio, this sensor is ideally suited to measurement tasks involving a large number of pieces. Therefore, the sensor can be used in all fields of automation technology, e.g., in machine building, 3D printers or robotics.

Dosing and mixing systems in the personal care industry are characterised by high plant safety and flexible handling. With IFA systems for the personal care industry, the main focus is on the processing of a large number of different raw components and hygienic cleaning after a recipe change. Mixing and dosing systems supplied by us range from semi-automated to fully automated production lines. IFA Technology considers your individual requirements and builds customised plants and systems for the personal care industry.

Experience the pinnacle of marking and coding efficiency with the MPERIA Controller. Seamlessly switch messages in seconds, enhance mark quality, and centralize coding control on your production lines regardless of equipment manufacturer. With over 170 years of expertise, we ensure ongoing support, making us your reliable partner today and beyond. Legacy Controller Challenges Companies grappling with outdated, inflexible marking systems face significant challenges in streamlining their product, case, or pallet marking processes. These systems are difficult to use, lacking automation features, and hinder seamless integration into existing production environments. The absence of user-friendly interfaces and manual code changeovers lead to increased errors, bottlenecks, and inefficient operations, resulting in unnecessary labor hours and costly recalls. There is a pressing need for an easier-to-use, automated marking solution that enables efficient integration, improves

Manually controlled systems In manual systems, goods are moved through the system by hand or using a chain hoist. A hardware controller is used to set and monitor the individual bath parameters. Upon request, a small PLC can be installed for regulation and logging purposes. The electroplater sets the exposure time for the individual baths on each bath. The quality of the individual process steps, and therefore the parts themselves, is therefore greatly dependent on the precision of system personnel. Manual systems are used when semi- or fully automated operation would not be reasonable from an economic or technological standpoint.
