PCN Europe spoke to Mark Pontin, Managing Director of Resolve Optics about the challenges for lenses in optical material inspection and sorting applications.
Cost-Effective Infrared Sensor for Fixed Gas Detector
Water management is an increasingly important and challenging issue, particularly in light of concerns such as water scarcity. Greater value is thus being placed on disinfection processes. To protect against bacteria, viruses and other harmful organisms, drinking water requires disinfection and hygiene measures. This also applies to the environment in order that lakes and water-based activities can be enjoyed without hesitation. Disinfection processes play a large role in industrial processes as well. In the beverage industry, drinking water flows directly into the products, while surface waters are frequently used as a coolant in other segments such as energy generation.
Industry-optimised drive concepts with low weight and compact dimensions
Engineered for quick and easy commissioning and reliable open/close valve position feedback
New range of tools for maintenance duties included in customer care plans
A digital twin is not only the basis for a holistic view of the system and the individual processes. It is also the basis for automatic routines that react autonomously to changes in the process. It helps applications identify unwanted situations and the countermeasures to be taken often long before the plant comes to a standstill. Predictive maintenance is a key to the efficient operation of a process plant. However, digital processes are not a question of individual products or components, but require the seamless interaction of people and systems.
To date, the KHS coating of wafer-thin, chemically pure glass on the inside wall of PET bottles was primarily applied to improve the quality and shelf life of sensitive soft drinks and juice. VILSA-BRUNNEN Otto Rodekohr GmbH is now the first mineral water bottling plant to profit from Plasmax technology. The family business is consistently investing in its product quality and the long-lasting freshness protection of its premium beverages – and in doing so is setting standards on the market.
Pneumatic conveying processes have a key function in the material flow of many industrial companies and place correspondingly high demands on blower technology, with efficiency, reliability and purity of the conveying air particularly in focus.
For level measurement in a hygienic environment
Easy-to-use control solution with IIoT functions
Reduced complexity and installation effort with a single-cable solution for both power and data transmission
IP67-connector with quick locking for high power density applications
The use of conventional analysis equipment in hazardous areas is complicated due to a lack of approvals. Equipment without ATEX or IECEx certification must be specially protected so that it does not act as an ignition source. At the same time, analysis equipment is essential for many processes. For example, for testing the purity of hydrogen at hydrogen refuelling stations.
Certification according to SIL 1 (IEC 62061) and PL c (EN ISO 13849-1) standards for a wide range of applications
Quick and easy set up without calibration for different media
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.
With display for local data visualisation
German Fraunhofer researchers have developed an extremely heat-resistant ceramic-based ink. For the first time, this enables metal components processed in the automotive industry at temperatures over 1,000 °C to be marked with a code. This opens up wide-ranging possibilities for designing process chains in the industry more efficiently and reducing their carbon footprint significantly.
Optical sensor with easy-to-configure sensor and indication functions
Aluminium components with corrosion resistance similar to stainless steel
Available in a wide range of sizes and materials
With high protection class IP69 for the food and beverage industry
Everything digitally under control, including machine analysis
As an innovative technology leader, JUMO has been supplying high-quality measurement and automation technology for the food industry for decades. So it was an obvious idea to have our own anniversary beer created for the 75th anniversary in 2023. In the brewing process, all relevant JUMO products that are supplied to the brewing industry were to be combined in one application. The choice therefore fell on an in-house, modern, and highly efficient brewery plant.
New IIoT compatible radar sensor for cloud platform brings new opportunities for remote monitoring
Highly accurate switch with EHEDG and 3-A certification
Up to five control elements in different enclosure versions
For micrometer-precise distance measurement – even in the harshest environments
Available probes for temperature, humidity and other measurands
Highly Secure and Efficient Remote Monitoring
For non-contact measurement in a temperature range from 300 °C to 3000 °C
The basis for the CIP cleaning process is an optimized interaction of the factors mechanics, time and chemistry. Cleaning agents and rinsing solutions are applied to the surfaces of the plant components via a spray head integrated into the equipment. The movement of the spray head ensures that the cleaning solutions completely wet all surfaces and thus clean them.
Adapter for locking and cleaning of sensors in immersion fittings
New file read functionality in software suite for OPC communication and cloud connectivity
Secondary packaging for pharmaceutical products is subject to stringent product protection and labelling requirements. A consistently high-quality, reliable, safe and controlled packaging is therefore absolutely essential in the pharmaceutical sector.
Detection of air leaks in a bandwidth from 2 – 65 kHz
Alternative to mechanical devices in rectangular and round formats
