More safety for mobile machinery

components such as drives or laser scanners can now be connected to the X90 controller via a floating-ground emergency stop circuit. A safety level of PLe / SIL3 can be achieved. The option board is particularly

B&R at SPS 2023: Software-driven efficiency

Florian Schneeberger. Visitors can experience the future of simulation-based, low-code and no‑code design with ACOPOS 6D LaunchPad and the new ACOPOStrak design tool. They can learn about IIoT solutions which [...] around the world can come to share knowledge, find answers and work together in exciting new ways. With over 150 B&R experts, 16 live demos and much more over 1118 square meters, SPS visitors can expect to learn

Fast changes on a small footprint

adjusted cycle times: All can be designed, validated and running in much less time with an adaptive line. At ACHEMA, B&R industry experts are on hand to discuss how adaptive automation can benefit applications [...] ACHEMA 2024, from June 10-14 in Frankfurt, Germany, B&R is showing how adaptive automation technology can address the latest challenges in the assembly and packaging of medical devices and pharmaceuticals [...] clinical trials, where small batches and variable dosages otherwise rely on manual processes. Visitors can experience live demonstrations of the new compact curve for B&R's ACOPOStrak system, the new hygienic

The future is mechatronic

these tools even more valuable for the users. Seamless interface streamlines engineering "Our users can easily carry over hardware configurations and I/O mapping tables from B&R Automation Studio, reducing [...] Manager at EPLAN, in the German town of Monheim. B&R hardware contained in an EPLAN Electric P8 project can be integrated into the hardware tree of an Automation Studio project at the push of a button. An i [...] , the B&R Technical Manager who is responsible for developing the EPLAN interface. "Modifications can be made more quickly, more easily and more inexpensively, since the system documentation and software

Service robot scales negative slopes

smooth rotation while enabling the robot to step over discontinuous surfaces and mounting holes. It can move with a high degree of safety on vertical – and even negatively sloped – walls. Based on feedback [...] mounting points on glass panels or checking the integrity of stainless steel pressure vessels. It can also be used as a mobile platform for other technology, including cleaning and dust-removal equipment [...] dimensions of 112x112x30 cm and weighs 48 kg. The maximum workload for the robot is 20 kg. Up to 80 sqm can be cleaned per hour, or up to 90 sqm inspected. The body consists of a compact duralumin frame with

Humans and ACOPOStrak, hand-in-hand

error response time, safety clearances can be much smaller. Even with collaborative manual workstations and safe setup mode, the machine surrounding the track can be kept to compact dimensions. This increases [...] for safe speed and safe force are calculated dynamically by the safety application at runtime and can be activated or deactivated as needed. The safe speed calculations even take the weight of the shuttle

X20 system from B&R receives ATEX and HazLoc certification

controller system are now certified for ATEX Zone 2 and HazLoc Division 2 environments. These modules can now be used in locations where explosive atmospheres may temporarily occur in the event of an error

A clear overview of voltage, current and frequency - B&R introduces the X20AP energy metering module

measure and evaluate the amount of power actually being consumed. Any deviations from normal values can be used to identify the condition of the machine and evaluated through the use of monitoring systems [...] B&R X20 family takes some of the load off the CPU. Measurement value curves recorded by the module can help in many ways, such as providing the basis for optimizing traverse paths within a machine, in turn

One cable for everything

panels, on the other hand, only require a bus and power connection. This means that these systems can be placed exactly where they are needed without having to deal with unwieldy cable harnesses. Commissioning [...] button. The operator panels are also available in housings rated up to IP65. And to round it off, B&R can customize these devices for specific clients and offer solutions for specific industries, such as food

Compact and dynamic

previous encoders. In combination with the digital EnDat 2.2 interface, the most common safety functions can also be used with hybrid motor cables where the encoder and motor cables are grouped together, reducing [...] means an unbeatable price/performance ratio and reduced delivery times. If necessary, these motors can be ready on short notice and dispatched using express delivery.
