Today, B&R North America has a network of more than 20 offices throughout the USA and Canada and is there for its customers locally. Since then, B&R North America has continuously grown as a sales and support organization through both direct sales offices and B&R’s unique Automation Partner distribution network. North America, based in Atlanta, GA, has been working closely with its customers since 1987. For B&R, it couldn't be clearer: The key to the successful development of future machine and system manufacturing projects lies in the efficient integration of the best development tools available.ī&R Industrial Automation, Inc. The constant synchronization of project data makes subsequent service work easier, and reduces costs later on down the road. Automated data manipulation increases quality by doing away with errors that can occur when making changes manually. In addition, working on different processes in parallel reduces development times and improves response times. Integrating various tools in the development process brings a wide range of benefits. For projects large or small, the tight integration between Automation Studio and EPLAN Electric P8 offers maximum transparency and ease of use.

An intelligent comparison mechanism gives users a clear overview of differences between project versions at any time in addition to providing guidance when merging different project versions together. It is even possible to handle projects in which extensive work is done in both of these disciplines at the same time, as is often the case with an efficient approach to project development. It makes no difference if a project is started with software development or electrical planning. With an interface very different from conventional import/export interfaces, users are able to intervene in the process at any time – this is, however, something that is not often necessary.Īll types of development processes are supported. This is made possible by an automated round-trip engineering feature. These two tools provide support for the automated exchange and synchronization of hardware configurations, I/O mappings and process variables. B&R adds Eplan Electric P8 to Automation Studio Version 4.
