A bridge for wireless Industry 4.0
Aion combines the IO-Link standard with robust mioty® wireless technology – compact, secure, and without lock-in.
IO-Link Standard
Compatible with all IO-Link sensors and actuators – plug-and-play without special firmware.
mioty® Wireless
Telegram splitting for maximum robustness – even in environments with high radio interference.
IP69k protection class
Rugged housing designed for high-pressure cleaning, dust, dirt, and industrial environments.
Retrofit without cables
Wirelessly connect existing IO-Link sensors—without complex cable installation.
-25 °C to +85 °C
Extended temperature range for indoor and demanding industrial applications.
Compact 97×57×29 mm
Small housing that can be mounted almost anywhere—even in cramped control cabinets.
Secure transmission
End-to-end encryption and device authentication in accordance with the mioty® standard.
Open platform
Standardized cloud decoding – seamless integration into SCADA, ERP, and third-party systems.
The open standard for automation
IO-Link is a standardized communication protocol for automation technology. It connects control systems bidirectionally with intelligent field devices such as sensors and actuators—via a simple 3-wire connection.

mioty® – Next-generation LPWAN
mioty® uses telegram splitting: Data packets are broken down into many sub-packets and transmitted independently over different frequencies. This makes the transmission extremely robust against interference—even in dense radio environments.
Long range
Up to 15 km in cities, over 100 km in rural areas.
Scalability
Millions of devices per network cell – without any loss of performance.
Low energy consumption
Several years of runtime on a single battery.
Robust & reliable
Telegram splitting & DSSS – stable even with many sources of interference.
Security
End-to-end encryption and device authentication.
Cost-effective
Simple, low-cost devices – ideal for large-scale IoT rollouts.
Why a wireless bridge?
Since cable installations in industry cost €20 to €50 per meter, Aion offers enormous savings potential—and accelerates digitalization in both brownfield and greenfield projects.
Cost Savings
No more expensive cable installations—save up to €50 per meter of cable.
Easy retrofitting
Digitize existing systems without altering the cabling – ideal for brownfield sites.
Long range
Up to 15 km in urban areas and over 100 km in rural areas thanks to mioty®.
Massively IoT-capable
Scalable to millions of devices per network cell – ideal for large-scale rollouts.
No vendor lock-in
Open interfaces to SCADA, ERP, and cloud services—the data belongs to you.
Fast rollout
One platform for many sensor types – instead of mapping every application with specialized hardware.
Aion in practice
Four typical application scenarios in which Aion wirelessly integrates IO-Link sensors into the data stream.
Temperature & Pressure Measurement
Wirelessly capture process data from machines and pipelines—without interfering with the control system.
Vibration Monitoring
Transmit vibration and condition data from drives and pumps via an IO-Link sensor.
Level & Flow
Wirelessly monitor tanks, containers, and pipelines—even in hard-to-reach areas.
Distance & Position Sensing
Integrate IO-Link distance and position sensors into the data stream without wiring.
Applications and Use Cases
Monitoring of machines, systems, and production assets – flexible from the smart factory to the smart city.
Smart Factory
Wirelessly capture vibration, temperature, and condition data from machines.
Predictive Maintenance
Sensor data from hard-to-reach areas for predictive maintenance.
Remote Monitoring
Monitoring of facilities and production assets across multiple locations.
Retrofitting
Connect existing plants, brownfield, and greenfield projects alike.
Process Industry
Process data in harsh, sprawling, or remote industrial environments.
Smart City
Integrating industrial IO-Link sensors into smart city projects.
