A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR

Discover the revolutionary possibilities of XPlanar®, the planar motor system from Beckhoff. Learn how your machinery and processes can be transformed with magnetically levitating movers, flying product movement, 6 degrees of freedom and a nearly limitless array of tile paths for total flexibility in manufacturing and production. The tiles can be covered in thin sheets of stainless steel, glass or plastic for hygienic applications with washdown requirements. The movers enable jerk-free and contact-free motion in two dimensions at up to 2 m/s with 1 g acceleration and 50 μm positioning repeatability – completing movements without noise or friction. And 360-degree rotation is simple to implement in standard TwinCAT software versus specialized software.

XPlanar gives you the freedom to intelligently adapt to constantly changing workflows and shatter all conventional thinking about automated production. Most importantly, XPlanar can help you secure an unbeatable competitive advantage in adaptive manufacturing and achieve the impossible.
