Factory automation resource kit updated

Bosch Rexroth has released an update to its Advancing Factory Automation Kit, one of six educational kits in its resource kit series. It features new case studies, technical papers, and links to recently updated YouTube videos and product literature. The kit is targeted at machine builders, system integrators, and manufacturers involved in developing and using automated production systems.

Included with the new version is a machine tool application excerpt drawn from the company’s “10 steps to performance level: Handbook for the implementation of functional safety according to ISO 13849.” The excerpt is an overview of the design of safety-related control systems for machine tools and a preview of the contents of the complete handbook.

Packaged on a USB drive, the kit combines documents and resources with links to technical information and planning tools on the company’s website.
