Baumer strengthens its sensor portfolio with X-Sensors; focusing on Industry 4.0 and industrial needs with high-precision force and strain solutions.
Baumer has strengthened its high-precision force and strain measurement solutions by acquiring the Swiss sensor specialist X-Sensors AG. This move enhances Baumer's innovation capabilities, combining X-Sensors' 25 years of experience with Baumer's global presence. In the short term, customers will have access to X-Sensors products, with integration into the Baumer product range planned for the near future.
X-Sensors' force and strain sensors add value to Baumer's portfolio. This acquisition aims to accelerate the development of smart, IO-Link compatible sensors, thereby increasing reliability, cost-effectiveness, and Industry 4.0 compliance in industrial applications.
Strategic Importance:
Founded 25 years ago in Switzerland, X-Sensors designs and manufactures high-performance force and strain sensors. The company offers customized solutions for working machinery and equipment, developing force sensors capable of handling loads up to 20 kN and high-precision strain sensors. Baumer's acquisition of X-Sensors not only expands its product range but also boosts its innovation capacity. According to CEO Dr. Oliver Vietze, IO-Link and smart electronics are bringing significant innovations to force and strain sensors, and this merger will accelerate development.
SEO Keywords: Baumer, X-Sensors, force sensor, strain sensor, smart sensors, Industry 4.0, IO-Link, sensor technologies
Baumer will continue to sell X-Sensors products through existing sales channels in the short term. In the medium term, it plans to expand its portfolio, creating a strong and integrated product range. This transition will provide industrial users with access to force and strain sensors, supported by Baumer's global sales and service network.
Features of the Combined Sensor Portfolio
Baumer's force sensors are available in DLM30 (5 kN) and DLM40 (20 kN) models. These sensors are designed to withstand intense cyclical loading conditions and are ideal for use in harsh industrial environments. Strain sensors are suitable for high force measurement and offer ease of use with single sensors that can cover a wide range. They stand out with their industry-appropriate, easy-to-integrate designs.
Additionally, the sensors come with IO-Link, current, and voltage output measuring amplifiers. These amplifiers convert the mV/V signal into usable outputs, reducing the load on control systems with their preprocessing and parameterization features. This portfolio is ideal for detecting wear, force, and overload conditions.
Innovation in Force and Strain Measurement
As industries adapt to Industry 4.0 standards, smart sensor technologies are becoming critical. With IO-Link supported force and strain sensors, Baumer will continue to offer future-proof industrial measurement solutions. With the acquisition of X-Sensors, the company solidifies its leadership in this field.
