Good automation runs deep
possible by B&R automation components that function reliably, even 2,500 meters below the surface of the ocean. Built to perform at a depth of 2,500 meters: The seabed exploration drill rig MeBo 200 Descending [...] resilient technology. "At 2,500 meters below sea level, conditions are extreme," says Schirmel, "so all the components used must be robust and reliable. That's why we chose B&R's X90 mobile control system [...] University of Bremen – and Bauer Maschinen GmbH. MeBo 200 is capable of working at depths of up to 2,500 meters, where it can drill 200 meters into the seabed. The core samples it obtains provide valuable
