B&R presents new shuttle functions for its mechatronic product transport systems. New additions to the companys ACOPOStrak and ACOPOS 6D portfolio create possibilities in new areas of application, opening new market opportunities for machine builders and manufacturers.

New shuttles for ACOPOStrak: The new shuttles are optimised for smooth and thus low-wear operation and can be operated together with existing transport units.

Customers who require a germ-free environment can opt for this aseptic and hygienic variant. From food and beverages to cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, strict hygiene regulations make every square meter of production space valuable.
