At PPMA Total, ABB will bring together the elements of a ‘factory of the future’, demonstrating how its latest automation and robotics technologies can transform performance in food, beverage and pharmaceutical manufacturing processes.

Stand F80 will feature examples from ABB’s extensive automation and digital portfolio, showing how tomorrow’s factory will be able to respond rapidly to changing customer demands, while maintaining profitability, safety and quality.
Among the highlights will be demonstrations of the ACOPOStrak from ABB’s B&R automation business illustrating high speed merging and dividing of product flows. There will also be a robotic solution on display showcasing how the precision, repeatability and rapid cycle time of ABB’s SCARA and FlexPicker robots can help increase productivity and flexibility in pick and place and packing applications.
