Installation saves time and money
With io-key, you will opt right from the beginning for an easy-to-handle, yet powerful form of process and plant monitoring. A power supply and an available GSM network – this is all that io-key requires to transmit the data of the connected IO-Link sensors to the cloud. There is no need for complex connection to the company network or to a controller.
-
Connect to power supply
-
Connect up to 2 IO-Link capable sensors
-
Register! Done!
Convenient: alarm function by email or text message, automatic reports
The clear dashboard allows the user to set limit values for the connected sensors with just a few mouse clicks. If these limit values are exceeded, the user will be alerted by email or text message. Moreover, all kinds of data can be summarised and exported automatically in the form or reports.
Powerful: sturdy housing, vast choice of sensors
Whether in a dusty environment or outdoors, thanks to protection rating IP65, io-key is the perfect solution for all kinds of applications. Thanks to two sensor connections, a great variety of monitoring scenarios can be implemented. streamline holdings has many different IO-Link sensors in store for this purpose.
How often do you need information?
Up to 4 different transmission intervals are possible:
-
Once a day → For daily requests such as levels or point levels.
-
Every hour → For example, when monitoring states or temperature values.
-
Every minute → Für frequent queries such as position detection or machine values.
-
All 10 seconds → Ideal for critical queries such as predictive maintenance.
Find the data tariff that fits to your needs:
Monitoring decentralised processes and installations can be that simple.
Flow monitoring at pumping stations
With io-key, you can keep an eye on the proper pumping function of remote or mobile pumping stations at any time. An alarm function immediately reports deviations from the preset value so that the required pumping capacity can be quickly restored.
Level measurement on tanks
Feed silos, tanks for printing ink or concrete additives have one thing in common: they should be refilled before they are completely empty. Suppliers who equip their customer’s tanks with io-key can guarantee reliable, uninterrupted product supply. Once a defined level has been reached, logistics can automatically initiate refilling. A great improvement in service quality!
Predictive maintenance on remote machines
Fans in decentralised cold stores or storage facilities can be monitored via io-key as well as remote motors or pumps, for example, in automated agriculture. Damaged bearings, unbalance and similar signs of imminent machine damage will be detected by vibration sensors and reported to the central dashboard via io-key. This prevents unplanned interruption of work processes while the product quality will be maintained thanks to constant storage conditions.
Industrial Solutions
Robotics and automation technology projects
Intelligent digitalisation solutions from a single source
Robots and assembly systems have for decades been an inherent part of industrial production. They enable efficient work processes and secure a consistently high standard of quality at virtually any step of the value chain: The automated systems are used for welding, painting, pick & place, assembly, packaging, labelling and transportation – and that is just a small fraction of a sheer endless range of applications.
Industrial robots – at home in almost every producing branch of industry
So it is not surprising that robots can be found in virtually every manufacturing sector: The world of car manufacturing, metalworking or even plastics processing would be unthinkable today without them. Robots have also become established in process technology. Thanks to the huge leaps forward that have been made in gripper technology, hygienic design and intelligent image processing, there is now huge potential for the use of robots in the processing of food. The same applies to the pharmaceutical, cosmetics and packaging industries.
Key role in the factory of the future
In the smart factory of the future, robotics can provide a significant advantage: mobility and flexibility. Large-scale conveyor belts and static production lines are increasingly being replaced by intelligent, mobile robot units moving autonomously and interconnectedly in the space while performing service and logistics tasks.
Benefits of Streamline Holdings automation solutions
The level of industrial automation and digitalisation is increasing worldwide. Companies that want to remain competitive in the long run need to keep pace with this development, which can pose a major challenge, especially in terms of specialist resources.
streamline holdings assists customers who develop tomorrow’s industrial robots, assembly systems and mobile robots (AGVs/ AMRs) on the path of industrial evolution: with reliable and innovative automation and digitalisation solutions.
Our solutions consisting of sensors, identification systems and machine vision as well as smart connection technology and software solutions allow you to plan and operate your machinery and equipment at the required overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Assembly automation
The industrial sector Assembly Automation comprises a wide variety of complex and highly specialised feeding, assembly, handling and manufacturing machinery and equipment. This also includes quality monitoring and functional testing of parts and workpieces as well as labelling and marking.
streamline holdings offers a comprehensive product portfolio and complete system solutions for many different automation requirements.
As your competent partner, we will assist you in all areas relating to your digitisation strategy, from position detection and media monitoring e.g. in bonding or coating applications, to identification applications, track & trace technologies, quality monitoring and condition-based maintenance.
The collected machine and sensor data is turned into information that can be easily, safely and conveniently sent to the cloud using IO-Link, Edge gateways and our IIoT software moneo.
Mobile robots
The market for industrial mobile robots has been experiencing high growth rates for years.
While automated guided vehicles (AGVs) are mainly used in intralogistics, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) can not only transport goods, but also take over tasks in manufacturing, assembly and service applications.
Especially in the automotive industry, AMRs help to meet the ever-increasing challenges such as a greater number of models and shorter model cycles. Production processes are changing from rigid production lines to flexible structures with freely interlinked assembly stations.
Mobile robots also open up new potential in trade and industry. They can clean floors, reliably record stock levels, or recognise incorrect price labels.
Streamline Holdings offers localisation, navigation, obstacle detection and collision avoidance solutions based on identification systems and industrial imaging. In addition to 3D cameras, our product portfolio includes powerful on-board VPUs and multifunctional displays.
Reliable automation technology projects for the food industry
Maximum process reliability and constant product quality are maxims in the food industry – whether in the manufacture of beverages, sweets and dairy or in meat processing. Even slightest impurities cause great damage, such as product recall of entire production lots or expensive downtimes.

Reliable automation technology for the food industry projects
streamline holdings specially developed food application product range comprises innovative position sensors, process sensors, control systems and connection technology installation and commissioning projects. The sensors are made of high-quality food-grade materials. They have a hygienic housing design and are distinguished by high ingress and temperature resistance and protection against high-pressure cleaning with aggressive agents. Mating connection technology with protection rating IP 68 / IP 69K as well as stainless steel mounting accessories especially designed for the food industry complete the product range. All units and systems comply with the required standards and directives.
Efficient machine tools increase productivity projects
Machine-tools are indispensable in modern production processes. They are mainly used in the automotive industry, mechanical engineering and in drive technology. In practice, the machine tool sector is divided into two main areas: metal forming and metal working.
Applications:
Efficient machine tools increase productivity projects
Inductive sensors with high ingress resistance and protection against aggressive coolants guarantee accurate position detection of workpieces, workpiece carriers and machine parts. Diagnostic systems and vibration sensors for condition-based maintenance detect unbalance, wear or bearing damage on spindles and drives and prevent production losses, downtime, and expensive consequential damage. Vision sensors reliably detect the quality of components and work pieces. In machining centres, flexible production systems and transfer lines, code readers assure traceability of parts. Flow meters that continuously monitor water and compressed air consumption significantly improve energy efficiency. Many of these sensors communicate via IO-Link with the higher-level controller. That means that the user is best equipped for Industry 4.0.

High quality creates reliability
All streamline holdings units have to prove their reliability in extensive tests. Standard market product tests are stepped up and supplemented with combination tests. These also include thermal shock and vibration tests along with special leak tests, e.g. using high-pressure water jets. Among others, these test procedures lead to protection rating IP 69K that all sensors and connectors for mobile applications have. Before the streamline holdings products go to the customer they are all submitted to a 100 % final inspection.
Only these measures allow streamline holdings to guarantee the quality and reliability they promise the customer.
Quality production
Highly automated and precise manufacturing processes make it possible to produce defect-free products with minimised tolerance ranges. Comprehensive quality controls as well as a continuously high quality of the materials ensure that our products meet the highest requirements and withstand the harshest operating conditions. The complete production process is, of course, certified to ISO standards.
Cannot be shocked
Strong impact and vibrations are part of everyday operation of a mobile machine. Our products for mobile use must withstand all these influences. Vibration and shock tests simulate the harsh operating conditions and ensure the correct functioning of our components. Housings, electrical connections, displays – everything must withstand even the most adverse environmental conditions.
Checked for reliable operation
Quality is a decisive factor for streamline holdings. All ecomatmobile components are checked for their quality in all relevant production steps. After final assembly, comprehensive function tests are performed on each individual product including inputs, outputs and interfaces. Only units with the test result “functions correctly” leave the factory.
For extreme climates
Many climate zones, one requirement: correct functioning. Among others the switch-on behaviour of the ecomatmobile components is tested at extreme temperatures at our climate lab. Using targeted UV irradiation, we ensure that strong sunlight has no effect on the units. Our components also have to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations and high humidity.
