automotion automotion automotion automotion - B&R Industrie ...

originally operated using relay-based
control with a synoptic table. today,
a power panel handles centralized
motion control and visualization of
all parts of the machine. the power
panel visualization system makes it
simple and intuitive for service personnel
to enter all the necessary process
parameters. Various alarm systems
and monitoring functions allow
seamless error diagnostics, which
results in significantly reduced machine
downtimes.
“Thanks to a uniform automation
platform and the ability
to connect B&R components
to systems from other manufacturers,
we are now in the
position to optimally meet the
individual requirements of our
customers.“

STM
Motion control was implemented efficiently with Automation Studio.
thanks to the use of highly modern
I/O systems like the X20 as well as
the X67 and XV modules that are
attached directly to the ARROW machines,
the installation and wiring
costs can be considerably reduced.
the compact modular construction
of the B&R components considerably
reduces the amount of space
required in the switching cabinet.
This results in significant potential
for reducing costs for the end user
while at the same time increasing
flexibility and line speed.
Because B&R components are open
in relation to third party systems,
STM profits from quick installation
of its machines and equipment
in its customers' production lines.
"through implementation of the
B&R control system, we were able
to significantly increase the production
capacity of our filling systems.
thanks to a uniform automation platform
and the ability to connect B&R
components to systems from other
manufacturers, we are now in the
position to optimally meet the individual
requirements of our customers,"
explains tomasz Socik, technical
manager at Stm.
Fast reactions to market demands
In the future, Stm would like to place
special emphasis on supplying and
installing complete production lines.
thanks to the use of B&R technology,
the polish supplier is now able to
quickly adapt its filling, capping and
cleaning systems to current market
demands. "We are an especially service-oriented
company. providing an
appropriate price/performance ratio
is therefore one of our top priorities.
Application
thanks to the combination of Stm
and B&R technology, we're able to
provide internationally competitive
niche products for the foodstuffs industry,"
emphasizes tomasz Socik.
