FACTS & FIGURES

Only four months passed between the commissioning and acceptance of the IIoT project for RUCH NOVAPLAST through which inefficient, manual paper-based processes in intralogistics were digitalized and optimized by means of RFID systems from Balluff.

bar oil pressure at 120°C fluid temperature is no problem for our high pressure inductive proximity sensors. They are used to monitor the position of hydraulic components such as cylinders and valves.

is the official reference of the first property right filed by Balluff on September 19, 1956. The BNS cam switch marked Balluf’s entry into the field of sensor technology – and the beginning of an ongoing success story.

In 2019, the workforce at the company headquarters in Neuhausen covered a total of 193,040 kilometers with 100 per cent green energy. Compared to traveling by car, they saved 31 tons of CO2.

From smart reordering to portable condition monitoring systems: At Balluff’s competence center 106 developers worldwide are involved in creating software solutions for the Industrial Internet of Things.

The year when everything began: Gebhard Balluff set up his mechanical repair workshop for bicycles, motorbikes and sewing machines in Neuhausen. A company for precision, turned and milled parts emerges from these modest beginnings.

That’s how thin sensors printed with conductive ink are! They are used to measure strain during the production of lightweight carbon fiber reinforced components which are being researched in the DIREKT network project of the research initiative ARENA2036.

Balluff relies on diversity and a global team. More than 3,600 people work worldwide in more than 60 countries on innovative solutions, maximum quality and cross-industry experience in industrial automation.

The new Balluff condition monitoring sensor (BCM), can detect 3200 vibrations per second. This allows the sensor contributes greatly in ensuring effective and faultless operation for any equipment while substantially increasing efficiency.
