Handling

It all comes down to the right handling

In industry, handling and robotics solutions are some of the most frequently needed applications for automatable tasks. However, they often tie up significant engineering capacities. The automation solution ctrlX AUTOMATION makes it easy to put in place individual handling solutions and achieve quick and efficient engineering. Systems for handling can thus be commissioned up to 50 percent faster and the time to market for handling systems and robots is reduced considerably.

Automate handling and robotics systems more quickly and easily

Numerous apps from Bosch Rexroth and third party providers are available in order to improve the productivity of systems for handling and robotics. These cover all conceivable motion tasks, for example. They can be downloaded from the ctrlX Store. The automation toolkit ctrlX AUTOMATION offers all necessary software and hardware components for fully automating system solutions. For example, the high-performance, compact ctrlX CORE control unit can be integrated into robotics and handling applications and expanded freely and flexibly with suitable functions. The Linux-based control unit can control various robot movements. Because the apps can be installed via plug and play, the engineering work is reduced significantly.
