Tom Jensen, head of system sales, Murrelektronik:

Hello, everyone. My name is Tom Jensen, I'm with Murrelektronik, and we are here at PACK EXPO in Las Vegas.

And what we have to show you is a robot, but the real story is not the robot, but the control system that moves it. So this is our product called Vario-X, and the idea is that this replaces the machine cabinet on any machine you can dream.

Controller, 480-volt disconnect, power supplies, everything you would find in a control cabinet for really any automation.

So automotive industry, packaging, primary, secondary, end of line, logistics, all of this stuff can be satisfied with this which is basically a standardized cabinet at a great price point.

So in terms of power, we have one robot connected, but we can easily do four, we could do 100 axes. So your machine is no limit for what we can do together.

Again, Murrelektronik, thank you.
