Smart Function Kits for the Factory of the Future

Industry requirements and processes are shifting away from individual products to complete system kits.

In the Factory of the Future, machines, production lines and storage systems will collaborate within a network composed of cyber-physical systems (CPS) that will be capable of autonomously exchanging information, triggering actions and controlling one another.

The Smart Function Kit is an innovative solution on the road to the Smart Factory, delivering swift, easy commissioning with automatic configuration.

The Smart Function Kit is used for:

• Assembly and joining processes in industrial sectors
• Forming processes in the metal and plastics industries and packaging technology
• Testing tasks in development, quality assurance and test laboratories
