When 30 Milliseconds Make All the Difference
You have to be willing to take a risk in order to stay on the cutting edge of technology. This happened at Berhalter Swiss Die-Cutting in Widnau, Switzerland: "We had been continuously expanding our machines and ultimately reached a plateau," explains Dalibor Schuman, managing director and member of the board of directors.

B&R heralds the beginning of multidimensional manufacturing with ACOPOS 6D
With ACOPOS 6D, B&R heralds a new era of manufacturing. Magnetic levitation allows shuttles to move individual products freely through the machine. Gone are the days when conventional transport systems imposed rigidly defined timing on the production process. ACOPOS 6D is ideal for small-batch production with frequent changeover between products of different designs and dimensions.ACOPOS 6D is based on the principle of magnetic levitation: Shuttles with integrated permanent magnets float ove
