Temperature control plays a decisive role determining the product quality in various manufacturing processes, such as extrusion, injection molding or processes in the semiconductor industry. With mapp Temperature, B&R offers a solution that makes it easy to implement temperature control solutions and adapt them to the respective process.
All exercises are performed in an Automation Runtime Simulation (ARsim).
