B&R Industrial Automation Corp.

B&R’s automation software portfolio centers on its Automation Studio environment, unifying engineering, control, visualization and diagnostics into a single platform for scalable machine and system solutions. It streamlines workflows across the lifecycle while tightly integrating hardware, control logic and higher-level IT systems. Its IIoT offering builds on this with secure, end-to-end connectivity from sensor to cloud, leveraging OPC UA and TSN for seamless data exchange while turning raw machine data into actionable insights for predictive maintenance, helping prevent downtime and reduce costs. Tools like the IIoT Connector enable efficient data sharing across machines, enterprise systems and cloud platforms. With OPC UA FX, B&R extends open communication into real-time industrial networking, delivering deterministic, high-speed data exchange and plug-and-produce interoperability. The result is a secure, future-ready architecture connecting devices, controllers and systems. Complementing this, B&R’s cybersecurity approach embeds protection across the lifecycle with secure development, vulnerability management and certified processes.
