B&R Automation Studio

Description

One Software For All B&R Products. Users can use the Automation Studio for programming, simulation, diagnostics, and control at every stage of B&R product engineering.

Automation Studio is a comprehensive programming tool that simplifies every step of an automation project by providing a single, unified platform for programming, diagnostics, motion control, and visualization. This integration reduces the need for extensive training, improves project management, and ensures seamless communication across different engineering disciplines. By allowing developers to start software programming before hardware is ready, reuse software modules across projects, and simulate functions before commissioning,

Automation Studio helps businesses cut development costs and save time. The platform supports various programming languages, including IEC 61131-3 and ANSI C, which can be used separately or combined for flexibility. All languages have access to shared libraries, variables, and data types, making programming easier and more secure. The integrated visualization system enables users to create machine interfaces and control local or remote touchscreens without needing external tools, reducing overall costs. Additionally, diagnostic tools within Automation Studio help monitor and optimize system performance using the System Diagnostics Manager, which can be accessed via a standard web browser.

For machines operating in remote locations, Automation Studio offers remote maintenance features like VNC and web servers, allowing engineers to perform diagnostics, update firmware, and manage system settings without costly travel. These features make Automation Studio an efficient solution for project development, system monitoring, and ongoing machine maintenance throughout the machine’s lifecycle.
