This year, KEBA Industrial Automation chose as its motto for the K trade fair: „It is All About Listening. And Understanding“.

KEBA Industrial Automation @ K 2022 Fair motto: „It is All About Listening. And Understanding“

Martin Schwarz, CSO KEBA Industrial Automation: „Especially in today’s world with its fast communication formats, rapidly changing markets, products, and corporate strategies, being a good listener is becoming even more important. Only by listening carefully can we understand what our business partners really want. Only those who listen and understand will be able to translate the requirements into unique, tailor-made solutions.“

Highlights of KEBA Industrial Automation at K 2022
On a stand area of just under 60m2, the KEBA team will highlight the following key areas:

  • KEBA is a full-range supplier and thus a perfect partner for companies that are looking for or need technological depth and breadth in terms of automation
  • Furthermore, the automation specialist from Austria will emphasize its deep industry experience, such as in the plastics industry or robotics.
  • A third focus is to underpin the fact that KEBA is strong in developing solutions together with customers - keyword customizing & partnership.

KeDrive D3 multi-axis servo drives: typical full-electric injection molding machine configuration.

Main content:

Optimized servo drives for plastics applications
The deep and seamless integration of the KeDrive D3 servo drives into the branch solution of the KePlast series rounds off the KEBA product portfolio and makes them attractive for machine builders in the plastics sector. An extensive and cost-optimized range of multi-axis drives and motors is available for all-electric and hybrid plastics machines, offering a high degree of flexibility in the design of machine configurations.

With the KeDrive D3 drive system, plastics machines can be configured economically, intelligently and future-proof. Thanks to the large power spectrum of up to 120kW supply power and 600A peak current, electric injection molding machines with more than 500 tons clamping force can be realized effortlessly. The combination of electric axes with hydraulic servo pumps is a special feature of the KeDrive D3 multi-axis system.

KePlast p-Series - Extension of the KEBA plastics industry solution
Thanks to our more than 30 years of experience in controlling complex processes, the state-of-the-art KePlast automation solution is perfectly designed for all plastics processing machines with high demands on control technology.

The competencies and technologies of the established KePlast injection molding solution paired with the products of the KEBA automation portfolio result in an extremely attractive start-up package for plastics machines from the areas of extrusion, blow molding, thermoforming and recycling.

Machine builders can build on established basic technologies and ready-made application modules from the plastics sector, concentrate on their core know-how and dramatically reduce the time-to-market for new machine developments.

KePlast i3018 – 18.5“ premium multitouch control solution.

KePlast EasyNet MES - Production optimization for plastics processors
As part of the KePlast Smart Factory - KEBA's Industry 4.0 portfolio - KePlast EasyNet 4 MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is user-friendly software that enables reliable networking of injection molding machines in production operations simply and cost-effectively. With EasyNet 4, plastics processors have an overview of their production machines at all times and ensure that their production plant is working optimally thanks to fast response times. The central data acquisition and backup optimizes the workflows in the plant and saves a lot of time.

For medium-sized plastics processors, EasyNet offers a variety of easy-to-use monitoring and planning functions, such as a productivity overview of the entire hall or the evaluation of the process quality of individual machines. With the KePlast Heatup Management function, energy costs can be significantly reduced to achieve the best possible machine availability.

The integrated planning module and open interfaces to ERP systems, as well as diverse analysis options for machine downtimes, round off the range of functions and make KePlast EasyNet an ideal control station solution.

KePlast i3000 Multitouch - Premium technology meets customer needs
With its high-performance control and innovative, fast multi-touch operating panel, KePlast i3000 features a future-proof software platform that enables multiple standards for communication protocols and interfaces such as OPC UA and EUROMAP etc.. It is the perfect solution for hydraulic, hybrid, all-electric and multi- component injection molding machines. Available with 12", 15" and 18" multi-touch HMI panels with proven key operation. Based on Linux and ready for Industry 4.0 requirements, KePlast i3000 enables seamless integration of KEBA drive technology via EtherCAT interfaces.

Kemro X - the KEBA automation platform as an overarching bracket
As a complete automation system for hardware and software, Kemro X covers everything a machine manufacturer needs for his Smart Factory: All mobile and stationary panels, drives as well as hardware variants and also the engineering tool are integrated in it.

The software platform is structured in modules that can be used in a customized manner. Modules from KEBA, customer-specific or Linux-based standard modules can be used.

Kemro X - KEBA automation platform with modular software architecture.

As an industry expert in the field of plastics, KEBA relies precisely on this modular concept, integrates plastics-specific technologies and forms a turnkey overall system from this with KePlast.

The Linux-based openness allows customers to integrate their own software building blocks and third-party software to protect knowledge and maintain their independence.

The open system architecture enables the required inter-process communication. Following the principle of a modular system, KEBA has developed an extensive range of software units that the machine manufacturer can use for all automation projects: from engineering tools to simulation tools: control technology, mobile and stationary operating panels, HMI framework, drives, safety technology, motors, I/Os) with extensive expansion cards.

How does KEBA differ from other automation suppliers? What are the pain points of machine builders?

What will the smart factory of the future look like? Christian Gabriel, General Automation, answers all these questions in an interview about Kemro X.
