NOA cooperation for efficient and secure vertical communication at process automation production plants kicks off
Compact series for cost effective fan and pump applications
Ethernet-APL extends connectivity all the way to process automation field devices. This is achieved with 2-wire cabling via Ethernet-APL switches at data transfer rates of 10 MB/s. Transmissions are intrinsically safe and therefore possible into Ex zones as well. This paves the way for the straightforward collection of large volumes of field data, which facilitates plant optimization as well as the development of new business models in process engineering. Yet physical transmission is only part of the story.
Versatile options for a wide range of fluid handling applications
For predictive maintenance in industrial settings
The family-owned company and leading provider of safety-related automation solutions has concluded the 2023 fiscal year with a sales growth of 20%.
Compact device series with enhanced functionalities and adaptability
Real-time insights for the identification of top-priority pollutants across cities and industries
Digital Plant Asset Management is a topic that often comes up in discussions about process engineering facilities. Today, while intelligent field devices might be the standard, system owners have yet to exploit their full potential. To provide the connectivity needed, Softing offers the right solutions with the smartLink product family.
As a pillar of the global economy, the process industry is facing major challenges: high energy consumption and high use of fossil fuels, rising energy costs and stricter legal regulations make the decarbonization of the industry increasingly urgent. In order to achieve CO2 reductions and higher energy efficiency in their own operations, it is essential that companies drive the digitalization and automation of their entire production process.

With the increase in hydrogen mobility, the network of refuelling stations is densifying. The sector is investing heavily into the infrastructure. This creates a significant demand for measurement technology, mainly to ensure the safety of the refuelling process.
Monitoring and optimization for high availability applications up to ATEX Zone 2
Electrochemical processes like water electrolysis will become increasingly important in the future in light of climate change and the resultant need for an energy and raw materials transition. The Fraunhofer Institute for Microengineering and Microsystems IMM is collaborating with hte GmbH to develop modular electrochemical cells. These flow cells are used in screening tasks, thereby helping optimize electrochemical production processes, such as water electrolysis.
What does an ambitious contract manufacturer need when customers wish to expand their orders? Exactly, new equipment! The Malmö-based Swedish company Rechon has been a reliable partner to many pharmaceutical producers for decades, from clinical trials through to commercial production. The current trend towards cartridge filling is a good reason for Rechon to continue the successful relationship with Syntegon.

On its way to becoming a global specialist for complex fluid management, NETZSCH Pumps & Systems has been working on a central plant at its location in Waldkraiburg for some time. The first employees have now been able to move into their offices.
Extended functionalities for modular systems based on MTP standard
The increasing digitalisation and integration of production processes is generating a host of information that needs to be available in the field and thus also in hazardous areas. This information includes system status, maintenance intervals, MES-relevant data and more. To meet these requirements, R. STAHL is launching the fully modular ORCA HMI operator stations.
Powder and bulk material professionals in almost all the relevant industries have finally gathered again in person at POWTECH (27 to 29 September) in Nuremberg.
Real-time particle monitoring allows plant optimization
Higher reliability and lower maintenance for agitator drives
Standardization provides the basis for digitizing the process plant
Firmware update adds web server functions, “HCiR” and parallel access to HART devices to Ethernet gateways
High temperature stability allows use in CIP and SIP applications
How production security can be at risk if water treatment fails
ODVA announced today that The EtherNet/IP™ Specification has been enhanced to enable EtherNet/IP networks to support the Ethernet-APL physical layer for process automation. Licensed Vendors for the EtherNet/IP technology can immediately start developing EtherNet/IP components for Ethernet-APL, including controllers, power switches, field switches, and instrumentation.
Coperion Partners in Development of Manufacturing Technologies for Graphite-Polymer Based Bipolar Plates
The southern Baden high-tech company SICK was founded by Dr. Erwin Sick in September 1946. 75 years of pioneering performance for the benefit of humanity and the environment gave reason to celebrate. this year: Invited guests and companions of the company from the worlds of politics, business and science celebrated the past 75 years with the founding Sick family and the Executive Board – and looked into SICK’s future – during an official ceremony at the company’s Headquarters in Waldkirch.
Glenn Schulz, Managing Director at FDT Group, gives us the details of the FDT 3.0 IIoT ecosystem, as well as insights on smart manufacturing and mobility, CIP security enhancements and 5G technology
Process plants are often very extensive. Many of the plant components are interlinked and their functions coordinated. People who work in this area of plant construction know that there is generally less effort and expense involved in building a new plant, rather than adapting the existing one to meet new requirements. Despite the numerous challenges – and the restrictions imposed by the Corona pandemic and its consequences – the new and renovated production reactors went into operation again right on schedule.
