ctrlX AUTOMATION – Two Steps Ahead
The automation system ctrlX AUTOMATION surmounts the classic boundaries between machine controls, the IT world and the Internet of Things. With a Linux real-time operating system, consistently open standards, app programming technology, web-based engineering and a comprehensive IoT connection, ctrlX AUTOMATION reduces components and engineering costs by 30 to 50%.
Users can choose the perfect solution package for their needs in intelligent automation and robotics from the ctrlX AUTOMATION toolkit.
Simple engineering:
ctrlX AUTOMATION allows free choice of programming language. In addition to classic programming, such as IEC 61131, PLCopen or G-Code, modern low-code programming based on graphical program blocks is supported.
Smart Features & Apps:
The technology functions of ctrlX MOTION ensure higher dynamics and productivity. They provide important support, especially in handling applications. Active vibration damping, for example, protects the mechanics and enables maximum accuracy.
Perfect user experience with mobile HMI solution:
The panel frame from the ctrlX HMI portfolio is suitable for 10" consumer tablets. It is operated via web-based visualization. The enabling switch ensures safe operation and IT security is also guaranteed by a firewall.
The autonomous mobile robot (AMR) ActiveShuttle is already making entry into the factory of the future!
The Factory of the Future is completely flexible and connected – AMRs fit perfectly into this type of environment, delivering goods to the point of need, exactly where and when they’re needed. There’s an increasing demand for multi-variant and small batch production, and ActiveShuttle helps to solve this challenge, making intralogistics processes flexible but without having to change factory infrastructure.
MTpro Online Designer & FRAMEpro – the latest engineering tools for Assembly Technology
MTpro Online Designer – now create your assembly layouts with the online variant
With the online version of the proven project planning software MTpro for assembly systems, you can now plan independently of time and place. From component selection and configuration to material ordering.
FRAMEpro – the intelligent CAD plug-in
Working with Autodesk® Inventor or Dassault SOLIDWORKS? The CAD plug-in FRAMEpro brings the proven basic mechanical elements from Bosch Rexroth directly into your environment! This saves you a lot of time and avoids potential transmission errors!
TASS Verification System
TASS – inspection “on-the-fly”: Innovative verification system ensures quality directly in the production process!
Classic methods for the inspection of tightening tools are not very efficient and are at the expense of productivity. The TASS (Torque Angle Slip Standard) verification system developed by Bosch Rexroth provides an amazingly simple remedy by bringing the inspection of the tightening tool directly into the assembly process. With the new on-the-fly process, quality is assured directly at the workplace and the assembly flow is maintained.
