B&R will be presenting the company's latest innovations at this year's SPS - from new AI-supported programming and cloud-based engineering to interoperable industrial IoT solutions, AI-supported image processing and a new open approach to safety technology.

The B&R booth will showcase how B&R helps connect people, platforms and products to increase productivity. By combining a comprehensive portfolio for machine automation with a global network of experts and partners, B&R is able to, Hardware, software and mechatronics for real requirements to offer. Open and interoperable solutions connect the B&R ecosystem across borders - with existing brownfield architectures, ecosystems from different providers and new cloud-based tools.

„Whether you are building or operating machines, the ultimate goal is always to maximise efficiency and productivity. The difficulty is balancing this with the flexibility and simplicity that have become so important in a world of increasing complexity, changing customer demands, environmental pressures and interconnected digital ecosystems. That's why every innovation step we take helps our customers to master this balancing act - enabling them to achieve both efficiency and flexibility with our advanced, open and connected automation solutions.“

Florian Schneeberger, Chief Technology Officer at B&R.

Visitors to SPS 2024 will be among the first to the new version of the automation software from B&R. With a completely new user interface, AI-based coding and flexible cloud-based engineering, it promises more productivity and better collaboration in automation projects. This can be tested in practice on interactive workstations, as well as B&R's new approach to safety technology with open data architecture and a variety of new programming options.

The B&R stand will also be showcasing the latest developments in the field of open robot mechanics and mechatronic product transport presented, including the Simulation via digital 3D twin for concept design, capacity optimisation and energy balancing. Also on display will be B&R's open and interoperable Industrial IoT and Edge solutions with AI-based applications for live performance and energy optimisation as well as predictive maintenance of track systems and much more. More than 150 B&R experts are looking forward to guiding customers and prospects through 20 live demos and 7 interactive workstations.
