Dear interpack visitors,
Manufacturers of packaging machines have always been pioneers
when it comes to the use of new automation technologies. During
the last few years, they have been able to increase the productivity
and flexibility for even smaller batch sizes. This continuing trend
will eventually lead to a generational change in the field of packaging machines. The packaging machines of the next generation are
cabinet-free, adaptive, simple, efficient and ready for Connected
Industry. What appeared unfeasible only a few years ago, has
come into reach through progress in automation technology.
Rexroth has always met the market requirements and redefined
automation technology for packaging machines with numerous
hardware and software innovations over the last three years. At
the time of the interpack 2014, many machine builders already
benefit from the new Rexroth technologies to set themselves apart
from the competition with innovative solutions.
One well-established machine manufacturer will present the first
cabinet-free packaging machine worldwide at interpack 2014.
The machine is based on Rexroth’s cabinet-free drive system
IndraDrive Mi. The highlight: the servo-drives can be directly
mounted to and integrated into the machine with all the necessary
components, such as a power supply and mains module. The
result: A control cabinet is no longer required – one of countless
examples, how we turn our versatile solutions into innovations.
Get ready for the future now and start your personal innovation
tour at the stand of Bosch Rexroth.
We look forward to seeing you!

on Demand
In order to stay ahead of one’s competitors, the market demands
machines offering higher flexibility for smaller batch sizes, which
increase the productivity by means of highly dynamic motion
sequences. Rexroth provides adaptive and intelligent software
functionalities for control and drive units to realize increased
dynamics, shorter cycles and improved process stability.
Bosch Rexroth combines short cycle times and maximum productivity into perfect solutions. The four levers of Rexroth 4EE act across
all technologies and applications. They guide Rexroth in the development of new products and system solutions. Rexroth employees
already keeps this systematic approach in mind in the concept
development phase and work with machine manufacturers to
develop perfect solutions.
Machine control level: The adaptive functionalities of FlexProfile
allow for format and product
changes without any further
programming efforts. The control
functions of IndraMotion MLC
automatically establish motion
connections between the connected drives. Adapted parameters are sufficient to adjust the
machine to new process requirements at the touch of a button.
This helps to increase the
availability especially with small
batch sizes.
Lowering operating costs and
raising throughput with 4EE
Drive control level: Active
vibration damping helps to
increase dynamics and to
shorten cycle times. Fluctuations
of process parameters are
automatically compensated, so
that axe mechanics can gather
momentum without any resonant
vibration. This helps to avoid the
spilling of liquids and contamination of the machine during the
acceleration and deceleration of
the system.

IndraDrive Cs – highly versatile,
extremely compact drives
The new cabinet-free drive technology IndraDrive Mi can be adapted
to individual conditions unlike virtually any other decentralized drive
system. This makes it ideally suited for use in all modular machines –
for maximum flexibility in the smallest of spaces.
With the compact IndraDrive Cs drive system, Rexroth is expanding
the lower power range of the IndraDrive drive platform that has
enjoyed worldwide success. In addition to its space-saving design
and outstanding performance data the IndraDrive Cs also offers an
extensive range of Ethernet-based communication interfaces.
Rexroth has thus given users a high degree of flexibility in communication with minimal engineering work.

In the new electromechanical cylinder EMC you will notice the high
system competence of Rexroth in every detail, thanks to the resolute
integration of our proven proprietary technologies. The result is an
actuator whose external geometry and mode of operation is equivalent to a pneumatic cylinder, which, however, is much more energy
efficient and flexible. In many industries this makes it more than just
an alternative to fluid power systems.
The Omega Module OBB from Rexroth enables improved dynamics
with higher loads over longer distances. The stationary drive makes
it ideal for immersing in large workspaces in any mounting position.
The low dead mass to be moved makes it possible to use the module
for vertical installation and transporting heavy loads. Offered in
three sizes, the Omega Module guides the table part over ball rail
systems with high precision.
