Around three years ago, EBRO ARMATUREN worked closely with its customers to develop a butterfly valve adapted specifically to the requirements of the chemicals industry. A prototype has already been deployed in the food and beverage sector, including at Schneider Weisse. Besides the FDA compliance required with regard to food and pharmaceutical technology, resistance to chemically aggressive media...
Research project for sensor systems for extremely harsh environments
Brewers will often attribute their success to passion, determination and innovation, but once a beer has been developed and branded, it’s all about consistency. Process monitoring therefore has a key role to play. In the following article Keijo Pyörälä from Vaisala will explain how in-line refractometers, located strategically at every stage of the brewing process, enable process optimization, save energy, reduce waste, lower costs and help deliver top quality beer.
In Germany, 55 percent of final energy consumption goes towards heating and cooling. However, a lot of heat dissipates unused because it is not generated as and when required. Thermal storage using zeolite material allows heat to be stored for long periods of time without losing any. Fraunhofer researchers are now working on significantly improving the thermal conductivity of zeolites.
A Polish producer of various milk-based products faced a problem of breaking granules during the transfer of instant milk within its process. In Piab’s piFLOW®p vacuum conveyor they found the solution they were searching for to solve the problem.

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.
Reliable 24/7 access to oil-free compressed air is essential in the food industry. Regardless of the application, all machines must be sanitary to avoid potential contamination
An industrial chemical mixer's high torque start-up was causing problems for a Mexican manufacturer of specialist automotive cleaning products. They turned to new Variable Frequency Drive technology to resolve the problem.
Easier integration with new nominal sizes and higher flexibility in valve positioning
8% increased machine speed and boosted machine efficiency to 91% after upgrading from a PLC system to a motion control solution. These are the impressing numbers the liquid filling sachet and tube packaging solutions provider Unette presents after integration of Trio Motion Technology’s complete machine control package including controller, servo drives and motors, to improve its overall productivity.

While the wheels of industry need to keep turning to produce the everyday items that we take for granted, there is a growing realization that this cannot be done at the continuing expense of the environment.
“Size changeover” is not necessarily a term that immediately makes people stop and pay attention in the pharmaceutical industry. However, considering the challenges in pharmaceutical manufacturing, which are characterized by cost and competitive pressure as well as strict regulations, intelligent size changeover means competitive advantages in terms of efficiency, product quality and process reliability.
