B&R at Drives and Controls 2016

The Drives & Controls exhibition (NEC Birmingham, 12-14 April 2016) is recognised as the UK’s leading show for Automation, Power Transmission and Motion Engineering. At this year’s show, B&R will present, for the first time in the UK, an unprecedented number of new innovations;

B&R at Drives and Controls 2016

B&R will introduce its new HMI solution, mapp View, showcasing the full potential of web technology in the Automation Studio software engineering environment. It gives automation engineers all the tools they need to create powerful and intuitive web-based HMI.

With the ACOPOS P3, B&R is setting new standards for motion control. The 3-axis servo drive offers a power density of 4A per liter, making it one of the most efficient servo drives with integrated safety functions on the market, also providing previously unmatched dynamics and precision, with a minimum sampling time of 50 µs for the entire controller cascade.

mapp technology is B&R's revolutionary new approach to developing software. Ready-made modular components simplify and accelerate the development of new programs – on average by 67%.

The Automation Panel 5000 represents a new generation of swing arm operator panels that raise the bar when it comes to flexibility and modularity. These fully enclosed systems feature IP65 protection and are available in many different variants.

Ultra-compact X20 controllers, secure remote maintenance technology and new operator terminals with a multi-touch user interface are just some of the additional highlights being presented.

See a demonstration of how the collaboration between COMAU Robotics and B&R continues to mature and expand.  The companies can already boast ten thousand units installed and operating all around the globe. This achievement underscores the quality of COMAU products, which rely on powerful, accurate and reliable control electronics from automation specialist B&R. The two companies have been working for years to revolutionize the integration of robotics into production lines. OEMs and end users benefit from excellent synchronization and the resulting responsiveness of the combined system.
