    (mapp) technology from B&R maintains familiar, IEC-compliant ladder and function block programming – except with mapp components– more time is spent on configuring rather than programming.

    With mapp Technology, machine control can be accessed and diagnosed down to the function block level without requiring dedicated software, special training or access to the source code.

    Take the mapp technology video tour.

    To see first-hand how mapp technology can cut programming time by two-thirds, while simplifying recipe changes, diagnostics, integration, and field modifications.
