b+m surface systems uses Beckhoff controls in painting robot design
b+m surface systems used Beckhoff automation and control technology in a compact painting robot design.
Evidence notes
- b+m integrated Beckhoff EPX EtherCAT Box modules directly into its T1 X6 and T2 X6 six-axis painting robots.
- The architecture consolidates intrinsically safe signals from as many as 40 process sensors while reducing robot-arm wiring and installation space.
- The robots target coating systems for automotive, commercial-vehicle and aviation applications.
