B&R is a global supplier of industrial automation systems used to control, synchronize, and monitor machine and factory automation environments. A member of the ABB Group, B&R (Bernecker + Rainer Industrie-Elektronik GmbH) is widely deployed in machine-building and manufacturing environments where deterministic control, integrated motion, and system consistency are required. B&R automation platforms are commonly implemented in machine and production systems that rely on tightly integrated PLC, motion, safety, and visualization architectures. PLC Direct supplies B&R PLCs and automation hardware used in existing B&R-based systems. Our B&R collection supports customers sourcing replacement parts, legacy components, and installed-base hardware to maintain and extend the life of B&R PLC systems already in operation.
Why Choose B&R Automation Solutions
B&R is recognized for its unified automation architecture that integrates PLC control, motion control, safety, and visualization within a single engineering and runtime environment. Rather than separating control domains, B&R designs automation platforms intended to operate cohesively across machine and factory automation systems.
B&R systems and automation components are commonly used in:
- Machine-building and OEM manufacturing environments
- Discrete manufacturing and industrial production
- Motion-intensive applications requiring synchronized control
- Robotics and mechatronic systems
- Factory automation systems with distributed control architectures
This level of adoption reflects B&R’s emphasis on deterministic performance, modular system design, and long-term platform continuity across B&R automation PLC environments.
B&R Products and Solutions
B&R organizes its automation portfolio around modular product families designed to support different performance, environmental, and system architecture requirements while maintaining a consistent control framework. The B&R collection at PLC Direct focuses on hardware used in installed B&R systems, supporting maintenance and lifecycle continuity rather than new system deployment.
B&R Product Families
B&R product families commonly supported include:
- X20 System: PLCs, I/O, controllers, and control hardware used in machine and line automation with POWERLINK communication and modular embedded controllers
- X90 System: PLC and I/O components designed for mobile and harsh-environment automation
- Power Panel: Integrated PLC and HMI devices used in compact machine designs
B&R Industrial PCs: Control platforms used for high-performance automation and visualization - APROL: Scalable process control system components for distributed and plant-level automation supporting up to 64 runtime servers
- ACOPOS servo drives and motion controllers for synchronized multi-axis applications
These platforms are often deployed as part of integrated B&R controller architectures within coordinated machine and factory automation systems.
