The technological partners of Barcelona Packaging Hub, in this case: B&R, Copadata, Hepcomotion y Schneider Electricwill participate in the fair Advanced Factories as featured exhibitors. Barcelona Packaging Hub is an association of companies specialized in the packaging sector, which work closely to offer innovative and high-quality solutions for packaging and packaging.

Advanced Factories is one of the most important events in the field of industrial automation, robotics and digital manufacturing. From April 18 to 20, at the Fira de Barcelona – Gran Vía, attendees will be able to learn first-hand about the latest technological innovations and establish business relationships with leading companies in the sector.

Technology partners are companies specialized in advanced technology that work together with Barcelona Packaging Hub associates to consolidate their leadership in the packaging sector. At the fair, demonstrations of solutions will be presented, ranging from the automation of production processes to the integration of artificial vision systems and collaborative robotics in packaging.

B&R, leader in automation and robotics technology, will launch a demo in which the ACOPOS 6D machinery will be carrying out product transport tasks for code reading through a Smart Camera. This demonstration allows the validation of identification, position and product traceability by reading the codes of industries as demanding as pharmaceuticals.

For its part, Copadata will present modular production. The increasing demand for customized solutions and small batches is generating ever shorter production and innovation cycles. This production strategy offers numerous advantages, such as a high capacity for innovation and a reduction in production costs by 40%. In addition, it allows to shorten the launch period by 50% and offers maximum flexibility in the use of the plant.

Hepcomotion, an expert in linear motion, will be present with a selection of its products specialized in industrial automation. Among the products is the GFX Agile, a faster and lighter variant of the standard GFX guidance system for Beckhoff's XTS transport system. Visitors will also be able to see the self-adjusting carriages, which allow for easy mounting on slides and are factory set for optimal preload, eliminating the need for adjustment and setup.

For its part, Schneider Electric will present its Lexium MC12 Multicarrier and Lexium Cobot technology. Schneider Electric's Lexium MC12 Multicarrier offers greater control and flexibility in production processes in the packaging industry, which translates into increased efficiency and quality of final products. Likewise, the Schneider Electric Lexium Cobot offers a complete range of 5 robots to cover the main applications in the market.

Lucas Palma, director of Barcelona Packaging Hub, has highlighted the importance of the participation of technology partners in Advanced Factories: "We are delighted that our technology partners are participating in Advanced Factories. It is an opportunity to show the world the technological solutions that we are developing in the field of packaging. thus sharing our knowledge and experience with other industry professionals.”
