Sensing at the Control Level: Leveraging Data for Both Safety and Analytics

June 01, 2025 by Rockwell Automation

We rely on sensors to acquire all kinds of data from real-world processes and machines, but deciding how to use the data is very important. Some sensors are used only to provide digital and analog signals for routine process logic. Safety sensors must provide instant actions to protect humans and assets from harm. Still other sensors are used to collect data over long periods of time to help analyze and improve machine working conditions.

Learn from an expert in safety and sensing, and gain some insight into how these sensors work in harmony, and, over time, can simplify our systems to provide logic, safety, and process improvements to benefit both operational and business priorities.
