B&R USER Meeting<br />
achieves record<br />
number of visitors<br />
groundbreaking technologies for<br />
machine and system manufacturing<br />
and a comprehensive exchange of<br />
experience were the main points of<br />
the 20 th B&R uSeR meeting from July<br />
23rd-24th. With over 220 interested<br />
participants, the event achieved a<br />
record number of visitors.<br />
machine and system manufacturers<br />
from Austria and germany took the<br />
opportunity at the B&R uSeR meeting<br />
in Salzburg to learn about the<br />
At the B&R USER Meeting, over 220 participants found out about the newest developments<br />
in the area of automation.<br />
latest trends on the Automation market. In select presentations, company experts presented product innovations and<br />
the latest development projects in the area of automation. Representatives from industry and research also introduced<br />
practical applications and gave live demonstrations to show the impressive results of their cooperation with B&R. For<br />
all industries, this year‘s event provided a wide range of application solutions and expert consultation for optimizing<br />
hardware, engineering and commissioning costs. „We have to make preparations now in order to be ready for future<br />
requirements because the next upswing will certainly come,“ states Hermann Obermair, who is in charge of sales in<br />
Austria and is the initiator of the uSeR meeting.<br />
Raimund Ruf, HmI Business manager at B&R, reported on integration of the new Intel Atom processor generation in<br />
the industrial PC line. „Users will profit in the future from even higher performance in connection with several new<br />
products and the proven Automation pC 620 and panel pC 700 devices. the Intel Atom N270 processor with 1.6 gHz<br />
clock frequency offers performance that is clearly above that of the Pentium M 1.1 GHz,“ explains Raimund Ruf. This<br />
provides users with price-optimized technology for challenging applications.<br />
through the seamless integration of model Based Design (the mathWorks) and automatic code generation with<br />
Automation Studio, machine manufacturers save time designing projects and<br />
increase software quality throughout the entire engineering workflow. With<br />
B&R Automation Studio target for Simulink, complete machine functions<br />
are easily set up and tested in the Simulink simulation environment and<br />
implemented on any B&R controller with the push of a button. For customers,<br />
complete integration of the tools used is decisive - manual intervention by<br />
users is reduced to a minimum.<br />

News<br />
In addition to selected topics for machine manufacturing, a special series of<br />
presentations concerning process control technology was offered for the first<br />
time in the 20-year history of the uSeR meeting. In selected ApROL process<br />
control system presentations, the plant engineers found out important details<br />
about alarm, trend and process data management. New navigation in the CAe<br />
Manager for optimal representation of individual system configuration tasks<br />
was also explained in detail to participants. At the workstations there, visitors<br />
could directly experience the numerous ApROL functionalities with the help<br />
of B&R experts.<br />
