Wind River®, a global leader in delivering software for mission-critical intelligent systems, has collaborated with Airbus to support the A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) for automatic air-to-air refueling (A3R) aircraft. The MRTT aircraft is the world’s first tanker to be certified for automatic air-to-air refueling boom operations in daylight.

A special highlight at this year's AMB was the world premiere of the new BA 711 space – a flexible single-station machine for small and medium series production of precision parts made of cast iron, cast steel or steel.

The market for transflective displays has grown recently, especially in the e-mobility sector. The potential applications in this field require high readability in different light conditions, such as direct sunlight.

Programming of a laser stripper during operation by operators without software know-how. MBDA, a leading European aerospace manufacturer, wanted to robotise certain processes in small series or even single unit production, by allowing an operator with no programming skills to teach the robotic system, in just a few seconds, the process to be carried out, and then to execute the cycle with complete confidence without human supervision. Fuzzy Logic's Repplix™ application software module addresses...

Pressing, joining, screwing, gluing, coating – SW Automation designs custom solutions for assembly automation that increase efficiency in automotive manufacturing. Employees are deployed precisely where their flexibility and intuition are indispensable.

A comprehensive range of digital services leads SW's customers into the digital age in a practical and production-oriented manner. From this so-called life data portfolio, modules can be flexibly selected that best support a company in achieving its individual goals – for example, increasing productivity. Data sovereignty always remains with the customer.

Until now, it was common in the automotive industry to purchase an individual system for the automated production of a specific product or workpiece. This investment paid for itself due to the plant and product runtimes of almost ten years each. But the situation is increasingly changing. Production capacity utilisation with a single product type produced in high volumes over a long period of time is only possible in rare cases.

Siemens AG has launched an open digital business platform, Siemens Xcelerator, to accelerate digital transformation and value creation for customers of all sizes in industry, buildings, grids and mobility. The business platform makes digital transformation easier, faster and scalable.

With the automation modules from SW, CNC machining centres and peripheral stations can be optimally linked to form highly productive production lines or operated in a matrix production.

The market for transflective displays has grown recently, especially in the e-mobility sector. The potential applications in this field require high readability in different light conditions, such as direct sunlight.

Sierra Space, a leading commercial space company at the forefront of creating and building the future of space transportation and infrastructure for Low Earth orbit (LEO) commercialization, has implemented Siemens’ Xcelerator portfolio of software and services as the foundation of its next-generation digital engineering program.

The development of rubber gloves is a lengthy process. Malaysian company Le Inoova has automated this process – with the help of integrator IDEA and a KUKA robot. It now ensures greater precision and less waste.

Whether for dip coating basins or container ports – radar technology offers clear benefits over alternative solutions using ultrasonic or optical sensor technology in many application fields. However, radar sensors have rarely been used to date for distance or level measurements in production and logistics. With its LRS+ and DR-M30 radar sensors, Turck now offers efficient solutions for demanding applications in these areas as well. The browser-based Turck Radar Monitor visualizes the signal...

KUKA robots relieve the staff of a private brewer when palletising and depalletising beer crates. Small but excellent – that’s the motto of the Christian Fiedler private brewery from the Saxon village of Oberscheibe. With 18 employees, the family business is very successful in producing premium beers according to the time-honored art of German brewing. A KUKA robot makes this work easier.

Industrial mobile routers. Remote maintenance and remote management of machines and plants are important components of digitalisation. They save time-consuming and costly on-site service visits and are at the same time the entry into IIoT and Industry 4.0. With the 4G routers of the UR series, Spectra offers a complete range of industrial 4G mobile radio routers.

UniStream: Compact All-in-One controllers now with 10‑inch display. For system integrators, compact All-in-One PLCs offer a particularly convenient way to implement interactive control tasks. If the appropriate programming software is also included in the package, implementing the tasks is particularly easy.

Spectra-Panel Z-Series meets requirements of the food, pharmaceutical and medical industries. Hygiene requirements are particularly high in the food, pharmaceutical and medical industries. Since the spread of particles, germs and other contaminants must be prevented at all costs, materials are used in the production process whose contamination potential is as low as possible.

Spectra PowerBox 3000C – Mini‑PC with Coffee Lake Power. High computing power, extensive expansion options as well as the compact design have made the mini PCs of the Spectra PowerBox 3000 series a real 19-inch alternative since the first generation. Due to these characteristics, they are recommended, for example, for use in machine and system control.

Spectra PowerBox 5000: Scalable high-end GPU computing system. Modern processes in industrial AI and machine vision are closely linked to image processing. This requires industrial PC systems with CPU and GPU performance large enough to process the tasks in real time.

Special format, high resolution, suitable for industrial use and even with touch! Is it all possible? All this is possible with DMB Technics. With the small bar-type TFT display, the most diverse application wishes can be realised.

Using Kaizen methods and the goal of lean intralogistics and production, the Panasonic Laboratory for intralogistics explore inventory and material flow and ultimately create a future-proof process flow.
