At the Bürkert Trade Press Days we spoke with Georg Stawowy, CEO of Bürkert Fluid Control Systems about the concept of a regenerative economy.
Precision and accuracy are essential for liquid dosing applications to ensure quality and safety. While these factors are vital at the micro level, macro scale applications, involving litres of product, can also make significant efficiency gains by optimising dosing control. To achieve this, selecting the right valve and measurement technology is vital, with the right level of automation.

Fraunhofer Application Center develops new optical safety technology reduces transportation accidents
Goods and products manufactured with industrial processes often contain water in various concentrations. To date, laboratory instruments have been the most common tools for measuring moisture. While the processes are highly precise, they also have disadvantages. Endress+Hauser is enhancing an existing level measurement technology so that it’s also capable of determining material characteristics, radar-based sensors supply real-time information regarding material moisture.
Fraunhofer process increases methane yield from biogas plants
Endress+Hauser has expanded its center of competence for silicon pressure sensors in Stahnsdorf near Berlin, Germany at a cost of more than 12 million euros. A new production hall was added to the existing building to serve the growing demand for silicon pressure instrumentation. The expansion also includes a new office and laboratory building, as well as a large outdoor area and additional parking.
