Direct driven blowers for economical and energy-efficient process air generation
With SIL 2 certification for limit switches and 4…20 mA output
The fertilizer sector is caught in a global paradox between growing food to feed billions and the urgent need to decarbonise. Compressors present a largely overlooked opportunity to reduce lifecycle costs and carbon emissions, while enabling more sustainable production of ammonia.

Extended functionalities for stable plant operations and improved maintenance efficiency
Polyurethanes (PUR) are found in many products, such as upholstered furniture, foam or insulation materials, flooring, paints and even medical catheter tubes. The production of these high-demand plastics, however, relies on toxic isocyanate. Fraunhofer researchers have now developed an alternative production process using harmless dicarbamate.
Easy-to-use logistics solution with optional GPS localisation
APC enables capacity increases without new hardware, energy savings and cost reduction through continuous optimization, and more stable product quality under fluctuating conditions.
When it comes to beverage dispensing and flow measurement, Titan Enterprises offers two distinct solutions that each has unique strengths and trade-offs, making the choice application-dependent.
October marks the 50th year since ABB’s Low Voltage Variable Speed Drive was first brought to market. Developed by Finnish company Strömberg, which went on to become part of ABB, VSD have revolutionized industrial energy consumption and decarbonization
Variable speed motor platform to upgrade inefficient direct online induction motors
For pure compressed air with optimum energy efficiency
To help engineers and operators meet the challenges of precision batching and ensure accurate measurements and smooth process operations, the editorial shares some key insights.
Solution and new hardware now available in six European countries and Brazil
Designed to maintain focus over a wide temperature range
The measurement of low flow is becoming widely used in many industries. However, the smaller the flow, the trickier it is to control and measure, and finding a suitable flow measuring technology at reasonable cost can prove challenging for both users and flow sensor manufacturers.
Hygienic flow measurement with high accuracy
The new concept introduces complete speed control for an MV motor in a single energy efficient package for pumps, compressors, fans and other applications across multiple industries
Absolute sterility, optimised processes and lower operating costs – the food industry is challenged to align its production procedures amid these conflicting interests. The measurement technology employed to check individual process parameters plays a decisive role here. WIKA has now opened up a new chapter in pressure instrumentation: an in-line process transmitter with a “dry” measuring cell takes monitoring of this variable in sterile applications to a higher level.
Reliable high-performance compressors in the 11–22 kW segment
Multifunctional modular indicator series with high degree of interface connectivity
Corrosion resistant, non-ventilated units meet highest protection standards
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.

Certified Class '0', 100% oil-free compressed air supports the production and packaging of over 350 tonnes per day of 40 different types of flour meeting the company’s needs for quality and reliability.
Low-pulsation 3 chamber design in different construction materials
Firmware update adds AutoID Companion Specification V. 1.01 for OPC UA and HF bus mode to functionalities.
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.
Every day, sensors in production plants collect huge amounts of data. However, companies seldom realise how valuable the correct evaluation of large amounts of data is. This creates data graves whose potential remains undiscovered. The Heubach Group had a similar experience. However, with Festo AX artificial intelligence, it was proven that benefits for maintenance, engineering and productivity can be achieved from central PID data.
