Benefits of Technology

INNOVATIVE ASPECTS

The fusion of automation with IT

Machines and production lines are highly interconnected.  In the future, these systems will be even more intertwined and will have the ability to communicate throughout the factory via the different IT platforms.

This type of data exchange is only possible with standardised communication technology.  With the open protocols of POWERLINK, openSAFETY and OPC UA, we offer the application framework for production needed in Industry 4.0.

Human-Robot Interaction
Fully integrated Network-based security technology, which provides protection to the machines and the people who manage them.  Intelligent security features that also increase productivity by keeping the machine on and running. State-of-the-art B & R Smart Safe Reaction technology offers clients advantages for future critical security applications.

Intelligent Maintenance
Since machines are more productive and flexible, it is vital that any necessary down-time is well planned, and as short as possible.  Our advanced maintenance solutions save time and money by providing rapid detection of components that require attention.

Energy Efficiency Management
As the trend of energy towards renewable sources continues to increase, the efficiency and stability of the distribution network becomes increasingly crucial.  Our smart energy solutions provide an efficient distribution, and transparent management of a factory´s energy consumption.
