There is no room for compromise in the production of medical infusion bags, where every detail impacts patient safety, while increasing demands such as small batch sizes and full traceability push production to its limits. Together with B&R, Thimonnier has developed an adaptive solution that enables highly flexible, reliable manufacturing of medical bags, supporting the shift towards personalized therapies.

Why Gallus is relying on B&R technology for their new hybrid printing press

Flexibility and responsiveness have always been key drivers for the printing industry. Customer requirements continue to evolve, while production run lengths are becoming shorter due to just-in-time production models, faster turnaround expectations, and increasing complexity. At the same time, cost and profitability have become even more critical. As a result, total cost of ownership has moved to the center of investment decisions, making efficiency and equipment utilization more important than ever.

Ultra‑low‑volume precision on levitating shuttles: With B&R’s ACOPOS 6D, M2‑Automation enables single‑touch production lines that reduce contamination risk, improve reproducibility, and deliver cleanroom‑ready, scalable automation from lab scale to full production.

Narrow aisles, space-optimized areas, little room for error: Modern production and storage facilities make efficient use of every square meter. Employees, pallets and autonomous transport systems share the same workspaces. Nipper has optimized its driverless pallet transport vehicles with automation technology from B&R specifically for these demanding conditions – for safe, predictable and highly efficient movements with centimeter precision.

Sometimes it’s a tiny implant that saves a life: a stent that ensures blood flow. Manufacturing these small lifesavers is a highly precise, technically demanding process. Admedes and B&R, the Machine Automation Division of ABB, reimagined stent production – and developed a braiding machine that sets new standards.
