2. : SICK, Inc.: Confidential AFS/AFM60 Ethernet/IP encoders- What is it? : Name (Date)2 AFS/AFM 60 – Absolute encoder with 60 mm housing with Ethernet/IP interface AFS60- Absolute Singleturn Encoder (18 bit resolution) AFM60- Absolute Multiturn Encoder (30 bit resolution) These encoders are implemented with the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) profile as specified by the Open DeviceNet Venders Association (ODVA) An absolute encoder retains position information even on a power loss. This is critical in applications where a machine needs to reorient itself without having to re-zero its settings. For example: Application: Monitor angular position on a robotic arm at all times. Solution: Absolute encoder Application: Feedback on conveyor movement (Forward/Reverse direction) Solution: Incremental encoder

3. : SICK, Inc.: Confidential AFS/AFM60 Ethernet /IP with DLR FAQ : Name (Date)3 SICK encoders are the only encoders in the market with integrated DLR What is Device Level Ring (DLR)? DLR in the AFx60 encoders essentially means an embedded switch functionality within the encoder, so it can act as a standalone network device in a ring network Where is it used? In an Ethernet/IP network What are the benefits of DLR? DLR offers redundancy; rerouting data by detecting cable breaks in the network Reduces external switching components, saving on cabling and installation costs It is easy to adapt to existing network topologies, enabling OEMs and integrators to save on design time

7. : SICK, Inc.: Confidential Why move to a Ethernet/IP network? : Traditionally, there existed a layered network, with sensors and simple I/O modules in the control network; controllers, HMIs in a field bus/device level network and typically ethernet in the corporate network. : Name (Date)7 Source: Cisco White Paper: A Control Engineer‘s Guide to Industrial Ethernet Ethernet (Corporate) Device Level Network (Controllers, HMI’s, etc) Control Network (Sensors, I/O modules)

8. : SICK, Inc.: Confidential8 Market Potential The trend in factory automation is to integrate all levels of network into a single ethernet based system. Controller manufacturers now offer Ethernet-based fieldbus interfaces at attractive prices (compared to existing bus systems). Many customers (especially those who already work with DeviceNet/ControlNet) are therefore converting existing generations of machines to the new systems.  Diffusion rate of EtherNet/IP among machine builders: (Source: Presse Anzeiger from Jan. 10, 2011) - approx. 54% in USA - approx. 22% in Asia - approx. 10% in Europe  Manufacturers of controllers who promote and support EtherNet/IP: - Rockwell Automation - Schneider - Omron - Wago Source: Cisco White Paper: A Control Engineer‘s Guide to Industrial Ethernet Device Level Network (Controllers, HMI’s, etc) Control Network (Sensors, I/O modules) Ethernet/IP
