The design of these adaptive machines relies on a combination of advanced automation technologies such as robotics, intelligent conveyors, vision, and simulation.
At the CFIA trade fair in Rennes, B&R showcased its Adaptive Machine demo, integrating all of B&R's mechatronic technologies. Visitors were able to discover an industrial machine built around these technologies.
