For OEMs building the next generation of packaging lines, printing presses, or assembly stations, the 305 offers a repeatable, scalable, and maintainable architecture. It is the hidden backbone of the smart factory – not the loudest piece of hardware on the floor, but certainly the most intelligent.
The software comes in two main editions:
Drag and drop I/O modules, communication cards, and drive systems from the catalog tree onto the CPU backplane rack representation. Step 2: Configuring Communication (InaCom)
In , you stop searching for a pre-made part and start building your own.
Features a simulation environment for writing and testing PLC ladder diagrams.

The stock libraries are great, but real-world systems use proprietary valves, weird cylinders, and sensors from three different decades.

By simulating systems before prototyping, companies can identify errors early, reducing the need for multiple physical prototypes.
One of the standout features of this version is its extensive library system. Automation Studio 30.5 provides access to thousands of manufacturer-specific components. These are not just generic symbols; they carry the physical properties and performance data of the actual parts. When you place a specific pump or motor into your simulation, the software calculates its behavior based on the manufacturer’s technical specifications. This high level of accuracy makes the simulation a reliable predictor of how the finished machine will perform under various load conditions.
Automation Studio 3.0.5 is an integrated development environment (IDE) designed by B&R Industrial Automation. It serves as a single engineering platform for controlling, visualizing, and configuring industrial automation components.
By consolidating these functions into a single interface, version 3.0.5 eliminates the need to switch between disparate software tools, significantly reducing engineering time and minimizing compatibility errors during system deployment. 2. Core Features and Technical Capabilities
Version 3.0.5 incorporates B&R's Smart Process Technology (SPT) and early iterations of PLCopen motion control blocks. Engineers can configure single-axis movements, electronic gears, cam profiles, and multi-axis synchronized systems without leaving the IDE. HMI and Visualization Design
