We specialize in automation and safety technology using the AS-Interface (ASi) bus system. Our core strength lies in developing and manufacturing complete automation solutions for all areas of mechanical and plant engineering. Since 1995, we have been helping customers drastically simplify the wiring of their machinery and systems with ASi.
ASi-5 is the latest and most powerful generation of AS-Interface. It allows our customers to implement digitalization at the field level cost-effectively, or connect diverse IO-Link devices with a single cable. We have been a leading provider of functional safety with ASi Safety for about 15 years. With ASi-5 Safety, you can now use multiple safe and standard signals under just one address. Our internally developed, user-friendly software significantly eases the configuration, commissioning, and maintenance of ASi networks.

AS-Interface – ASi for short – has achieved a reputation in industrial applications as a simple, cost-effective, and future-proof wiring and control technology, making it a long-established standard in many industries such as packaging technology, storage and conveyor technology, and process technology. An important reason for its popularity is that not only machine builders, but also their customers – the end users – appreciate the many advantages of ASi technology.
Instead of six control cabinets, only one, and instead of countless cable bundles, only two ASi profile cables and thus significantly less cable (clutter) and wiring effort – but simplified troubleshooting and diagnostics, flexible adaptation and expandability to customer requirements and safety included. Arguments enough for joke mechanix to rely on the ASi-5 and ASi Safety solutions from Bihl+Wiedemann for its robot cell “Robo Pack System” for the fully automated packaging of side-seam flap bags in future.
Countless machine builders, for example in warehouse and conveyor technology, packaging automation, or process technology, have been relying on AS-Interface and Bihl+Wiedemann for decades for the wiring and automation of their machines and systems. ASi-3 and ASi Safety at Work were followed a few years ago by a technological update with ASi-5 and ASi-5 Safety. These became a great market success because they meet all the requirements for future-proof solutions, even in more demanding applications..
We would be delighted to present our current highlights to you in person. We're looking forward to your visit.

Environmental responsibility and decarbonization
AS-Interface operates without plugs or sockets. This allows for complete savings in the resources required to manufacture these components. And there is yet another reason why the demand for valuable raw materials and energy is lower: Compared to conventional parallel wiring, an ASi network needs significantly fewer cables—and therefore, far less copper or plastic. This significantly reduces the total energy consumption in cable production. This also has a beneficial environmental impact during disposal – resulting in less waste.
