High-speed precision of open and closed loop control for machines and systems – at an attractive price. B&R eliminates this seeming contradiction with the high degree of scalability of their control systems. This makes it possible for B&R to cover all requirements with a single platform – from the smallest controllers all the way up to CNC, robotics and process control applications. What's more, this platform can be programmed and configured – regardless of the hardware being used – with Automation Studio. This compatibility reduces development costs while at the same time protecting investments made throughout the entire life cycle of the machine.

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)

With a performance range reaching all the way to Intel® Atom™ CPUs, the X20 System can handle all tasks large or small. This system is extremely compact and highly modular as a result of its unique "slice" system. Perfectly integrated fieldbus connections provide the highest degree of freedom for decentralized machine and system concepts.

Panel-based control

PLC, motion control and visualization all in one device. This is what sets the Power Panel product family apart. This range of performance, which includes Intel® Atom™ technology, can cover even the most complex robotics and CNC applications. Operator panels with a wide range of display sizes, touch screens and/or keypads are available.

PC-based controllers

PC-based controllers use industrial PCs from B&R as their hardware platform. Box PCs or Panel PCs are the main options here.

Mobile and outdoor applications

With the XMA system, B&R offers the optimal automation solution for harsh environmental conditions in mobile commercial equipment and outdoor applications. This modular control and I/O system is based on proven and compatible X20 and X67 technology.
