Future of packaging
It is vital to increase your resilience. What manufacturers want to know is: How do you efficiently handle shorter product lifecycles and cater to the growing demand for highly personalized production? And how do you stay competitive by reducing production costs and machine footprint?
This is where B&R enters the picture. Adaptive enabling technologies
But that's not all: Adaptive solutions powered by B&R technology were available in a variety of industry applications all across the interpack fairgrounds. interpack 2023
Live at interpack
Let Wlady Martino, Global Segment Manager Packaging, take you on a tour through our booth at interpack 2023. There's a lot to discover.
That was interpack 2023: Get some impressions of our time at the trade fair and discover our booth.

- The B&R software ecosystem offers a powerful combination of integration and open standards that unlocks exciting possibilities.
#ThinkAdaptive wall
B&R enables adaptive manufacturing through track-based and planar product transport systems combined with robotics, machine vision and digital twins and controlled with our core automation platform.
- Success in today's markets demands a fundamental shift in thinking to offer consumers the person-alized experience they demand.
- Adaptive manufacturing delivers: On-the-fly changeover at the touch of a button (OEE) , readiness for unforeseen future products (TTM), profitable personalization down to batch-size-one (ROI), high performance on a small footprint (ROI)
2. Adaptive manufacturing demo
Experience the power of adaptability: Made possible by two loops of ACOPOStrak, two vision systems, a Codian delta robot and digital twin simulation.
- High-speed inspection & sorting
- Products switch tracks on the fly
- Robot tracking at full speed
- Hot swapping & vision scanning
- Codian robot exchanges shuttles on pit lane
- Mileage tracking & predictive maintenance
- Dynamic grouping & rainbow packaging
- Fully customized processing for each and every item on the line
- Package any combination with no downtime & no mechanical setup
3. ACOPOS 6D demo
Let's put the shuttles to work – and then let them play. See how ACOPOS 6D's independent floating shuttles handle packaging processes like filling, capping and labeling. Then watch them dance in formation, pose for the camera, and even get a spa treatment in the washdown area.
- Process flow
- Shuttle-as-a-scale weighing for identification & quality control
- Washdown protection & anti-sloshing
- Dynamic in-process personalization & sorting
- Live digital twin simulation
- Znaky systému
- Choreography in six degrees of freedom
- ACOPOS 6D + Machine vision
- Washdown protection
4. KAO machine: Personalized cosmetics
This new machine from KAO creates decorative images out of foundation powder by moving each case on independent ACOPOS 6D shuttles below a stationary nozzle. The combination of absolute freedom and fine precision allow KAO to make each powder case a unique work of art.
