Melzer Maschinenbau GmbH, a leading manufacturer of production lines for smart cards and labels uses drives and controllers from B&R.

B&R is showing how intelligent automation technology can address the evolving needs of the printing sector.

Standby mode on the X90 CP150 compact controller provides the option of restarting a machine or vehicle immediately after the engine was shut down for a short time.

Automation specialist B&R is using this year's PackExpo exhibition in Las Vegas to feature open solutions with Codian robot mechanics, now integrated and rebranded within B&R.

A ready-made software solution from B&R helps OEMs implement pick-and-place applications significantly faster with minimal investment risk.

ABB and B&R’s automated packaging solutions address logistical and manufacturing challenges posed by omnichannel retailing and product personalization.

B&R has added a new function to its Automation Studio development environment. With FMU Export, machine code can be exported and integrated as a PLC simulation into any simulation tool, allowing simulation experts to work in the familiar software ecosystem of their choice. This saves both valuable time and resources during interdisciplinary development.

ABB opened its new global innovation and training campus at the headquarters of B&R in Eggelsberg, Austria, its global center for machine and factory automation. The new campus will create up to 1,000 additional high-tech jobs and includes world-class research and development laboratories, as well as global training facilities for up to 4,000 people per year in collaboration with universities. ABB invested EUR 100 million in the expansion of the B&R headquarters.

The electronics of the ACOPOS P3 are specially coated for use under aggressive atmospheric conditions and at temperatures as low as -25°C..

The ACOPOS 6D, B&R's disruptive technology, will be on display at ABB's Hispack stand (H3-F184), an example of adaptive manufacturing for a medical vial filling and capping process with machine vision validation through a Smart camera that will position the shuttle at the two workstations. Finally, an ABB GoFaTMcollaborative robot will pick up the vial and unload it in another work area.
