AI and high-performance control technology for the tire and rubber industry
As a specialist in PC‑based control, Beckhoff will be appearing at the Tire Technology Expo 2026 to show how you can create flexible high‑performance tire production machines with integrated automation concepts. Come and see us in Hanover from March 3 to 5, 2026, to discover how AI converges with control, motion, and vision in a single platform to significantly boost your systems’ performance. We will be presenting our full range of products at Booth 7064 in Hall 21. You can look forward to innovations such as the economy drive system and the fascinating possibilities of TwinCAT CoAgent and TwinCAT Machine Learning. Find out how you can generate savings by using the MX‑System for control cabinet‑free automation too.
Book your freet ticket now. We look forward to welcoming you to Booth 7064 in Hall 21 and discussing your upcoming projects!
Pluggable system solution for control cabinet-free automation:
MX-System
- space‑saving and robust: compact, robust metal housing units replace the control cabinet
- direct machine integration: installation directly on the system shortens cables
- easy installation and maintenance: plug-and-play modules can be swapped out by non-specialist personnel
- scalable modular system: modular IPC, I/O, and drive solutions for individual machine concepts
- smart diagnostics via Bluetooth®: fast fault detection minimizes downtime
Highly optimized and fully system-integrated:
AX1000, AM1000, and AF1000 economy drive system
- function- and cost-optimized: high-performance drive system comprising AM1000 synchronous servomotors, AX1000 servo drives, and AF1000 variable frequency drives
- variable: available up to 1 kW (230 V AC) and 1.7 kW (400 V AC) as single- and double-axis variants, AF1000 up to 5.5 kW
- easy to implement: plug‑and‑play commissioning and diagnostics with TwinCAT tools
- optimized design: compact and cost-efficient design
- fast motor installation: robust connectors
Seamlessly optimized EtherCAT Terminals:
The ED series provides a smart I/O upgrade
- investment protection: existing EtherCAT series (EL, ELM) remain fully compatible and available
- faster installation: tool-free mounting with push-in terminals
- shorter downtime: app-based diagnostics via DMC code and Bluetooth® dongle
- flexible: high scalability according to signal type, number of channels, resolution, and functionality
- consistently optimized: uniform design with even better thermal properties
An AI assistant for the entire automation lifecycle:
TwinCAT 3 CoAgent
- program more efficiently: language-based code suggestions for PLC, HMI, and IO configuration
- optimized information retrieval: access to the Beckhoff Information System with context-related recommendations
- minimize downtime: AI-supported error diagnostics and problem solving
- increase transparency: commission data analysis while operations are running
- guided troubleshooting: automatically generated repair instructions
