Tailor your sensor or camera to your individual needs, from type selection to sensor resolutions. With options like diffusor filters, a range of lenses, LED variants and illumination angle, you can customize your order. Countless variants are possible – fully adapted to your machine process. Discover all possibilities

With microsecond synchronization and full integration into your control system, every component of B&R Industrial Automation’s vision solution works in harmony. In this way you can achieve reproducible results with minimal field of view. Razor-sharp images of objects moving with high-speed are easily within reach. Read more

Those who continue to rely on pneumatics, says Maurizio Tarozzi, miss a big opportunity to save energy. In this interview, B&R’s Chief Product Officer also talks about the need for orchestrated software and the requirements of modular manufacturing systems. Read more

To create such applications, B&R offers a ready-made software solution for pick-and-place robots from its mapp Technology software toolbox. This allows applications to be configured intuitively by selecting ready-made function blocks. These are linked together in the editor, as with other mapp applications, allowing an executable robotics application to be created within a minutes. Read more

With continuous data tracking, we enable machine builders to monitor performance, detect anomalies, and ensure seamless operations. No more manual troubleshooting – our Adaptive Manufacturing solutions revolutionize the way you optimize efficiency and drive productivity. Read more and watch the video

The Ceneri Base Tunnel connects the northern and southern parts of the Swiss Canton of Ticino and serves as the southern approach to the Gotthard Base Tunnel. Yet the tunnel, which opened in September 2020, is more than just a 3.6 billion Swiss franc investment in international rail infrastructure. It also cuts the commute between Locarno and Lugano from 55 to just 22 minutes.
In any given hour, as many as ten trains – four freight and six passenger – pass through the tunnel in each direction. With this tight schedule, reliable operation has top priority. The performance of every system and every component is crucial to ensuring the passengers and cargo reach their destinations not only safely, but on time. Read more

Twice as many product variants with half the setup time – that’s what special-purpose machine builder Harrandt has achieved with a redesign of its measuring, testing and assembly lines. The heart of the innovative new solution is a transport system based on B&R’s SuperTrak long-stator linear motor technology. Read more

B&R Industrial Automation, is extremely proud to have supplied machine automation products together with ABB Robotics robots, for the line build and digital technology demonstrators for a complete digital factory into Digital Manufacturing Ireland (DMI) in Limerick Ireland. Read more

Have you ever wondered, how you could reduce your footprint, without influencing the performance negatively? If yes, here’s our answer to your question: It’s Adaptive Manufacturing. Using an adaptive machine, like JLS Automation, you will no longer face a compromise between flexibility and performance. Watch the video

An adaptive machine allows you to handle higher volume of shorter runs with greater product variability. How? Read more and watch the video

The advantages of this new bus are particularly apparent in applications that involve many I/O modules or high data volume but where short cycle times are imperative. It is even possible to set up two separate cycle times so that less time-critical data is transported more slowly and generates less network and processor load. In this way, complex high-speed processes can be controlled reliably using cost-effective standard hardware. Read more

The goal of this tutorial is to show you how to connect the RobotStudio simulation to a PLC simulation environment that has an OPC UA server. In this example B&R’s Automation Studio is used. Watch the video

Chances are, you can point to a few key processes in your industry where timing is especially critical – where precise execution is essential to the quality and quantity of your output. When every microsecond matters, even the most powerful PLC can be pushed to its limits. B&R’s reACTION Technology delivers ultrafast response times with the low cost and effort of off-the-shelf hardware and software. Read more

Connecting individual machine modules to form a continuous line can be a lot of work and take up a lot of space. Optima has joined a filling and packaging machine in a way that reduces the footprint by nearly four meters. It’s made possible by a unique solution featuring B&R’s intelligent ACOPOStrak transport system. Read more and watch the video
