The easy integration of Stäubli robots using uniVAL drives and POWERLINK networks

Robots from Stäubli can now be directly operated with B&R controllers. This is possible thanks to a POWERLINK interface on Stäubli's uniVAL drives that allows Generic Motion Control programs from B&R [...] controllers to be transferred to the robots. In this way, robotics engineers can use the uniform programming and operating environment provided by B&R controllers. Robots are connected to the network using [...] with regard to kinematics and safety. The uniform operating interface means that system operators can save time, money and work during commissioning and servicing. For machine manufacturers, the reduction

Modular mechatronic systems gaining momentum

The [...] modules come in three sizes with torque ranging from 1.8 to 12 Nm. If needed, an optional fan assembly can provide a performance boost of up to 100%. Safety included In addition to the proven wired safety functions

B&R invests in openness

from different vendors to create a safety solution. With Automation Studio , any openSAFETY device can be seamlessly integrated and configured using a device description file. This extends B&R's support [...] light curtains, rotary encoders, laser scanners and drives. The same applies to modular devices, which can be connected and configured using the graphical editor in Automation Studio. This improves clarity [...] and openSAFETY devices. The firmware on these devices is now updated automatically at startup and can also be manually reverted to an earlier version if necessary.

This enables the mapp AlarmX component, for example, [...] automatically notify a maintenance technician when an alarm requires immediate action. mapp Tweet can supplement the message with additional information, such as troubleshooting instructions that allow [...] in machine downtime. Fast maintenance response times If the service technician isn't on site, they can quickly connect via B&R's remote maintenance solution in order to run diagnostics, adjust parameters

Advanced automation platform for mobile equipment

components require maintenance and when. Problems can be detected in their early stages and corrected before they result in unplanned downtime. Repairs can instead be timed to coincide with regularly scheduled [...] mobile automation. Visitors to Hall 15, Booth H13 will also see how advanced automation solutions can be implemented based on a comprehensive hardware portfolio, ready-made software components and a powerful

New Box PC from B&R with third generation Intel Core™ i-series processors

users can select the exact combination of CPU performance and main unit size that meets their needs. For example a quadcore CPU can be used in a single-slot housing or a single core Celeron can be used [...] interface options. Two Gigabit Ethernet ports, one serial and one modular serial port such as RS485 or CAN together with USB 3.0 interfaces round off the extensive capabilities of the Automation PC 910.
