The Basic Concept
1
Flexibility
All BL20 stations can be planned to accommodate the exact
number of channels to suit your needs, because the modules are
available in block and slice design.
A BL20 station can contain modules in any combination, which
means it is possible to adapt the system to practically all applica-
tions in automated industry.
Compactness
The slim design of the BL20 modules (gateway 50.4 mm / 1.98 inch,
slice 12.6 mm / 0.49 inch and block 100.8 mm / 3.97 inch) and their
low overall height favor the installation of this system in confined
spaces.
