Roboze's 3D printer fully integrates into the industrial production workflow with repeatable high precision and full process control. It reduces lead times and lowers the cost of creating custom metal-replacement components used under extreme…
In close collaboration with automation partner B&R, solid dose pharmaceutical specialist IMA Active created a compact yet full-featured new capsule filler that delivers unprecedented production density.
B&R introduces a new PLC family: X20 Embedded. The PLCs combine high performance and numerous integrated interfaces in a housing only 55 mm wide.
B&R now equips its PC for mobile machinery with B&R Hypervisor software. This allows the PC to simultaneously serve as a high-performance controller and Windows or Linux PC.
B&R simplifies machine-to-machine safety communication. With an update to its mapp Safety software, programmable safety functions can now be implemented across complex machine networks.
B&R has added three new option boards for its X90 product line. X90 controllers are more readily adaptable than ever to application requirements.
A new bus controller adds a gate measurement module to the B&R portfolio that measures switching operations with high precision to identify changes in machine components.
The mapp Temperature software package provides a new pre-programmed way to bring machinery up to temperature. The Soft-Start function heats up machine components evenly to minimize heating element fatigue.
B&R has dramatically accelerated the execution of machine vision functions. A new quad-core processor and just-in-time compiler complete vision tasks up to four times faster.
Using B&R automation technology in maritime environments is now easier than ever thanks to additional certifications by DNV, KR, LR and ABS for the X20 control and I/O system.
