Sales point (English)
In the European factory automation market, it has become the standard interface and is adopted in a wide range of FA devices such as PLCs, sensors, motors, encoders, and solenoid valves. Within the same M12 connector, there are several insert arrangements called “codings” tailored to different applications, each with a different number of pins, allowing for selection of specifications that closely match customer requirements.
Additionally, the connector standard itself is based on the IEC international standard, and since manufacturers exist worldwide, the supply chain is robust, and risks such as lead time issues can be relatively easily avoided.
