Provide long term operation under arduous conditions
Designed for optimal compatibility
Non-contact measuring devices ideal for tests rig uses
The business models of industrial manufacturers are drastically changing and anticipating consumer demands is becoming crucial. Digitization and an advanced cooperation with other businesses along the supply chain are essential elements to make the change
Offers maximum homogenisation and continuous pressure-stable, smooth and low-pulsation conveyance of biosubstrates. Ideal feeding and mixing is therefore ensured
The new catalyst office opened in Qingdao, Shandong Province, that presents the highest number of refineries, will foster China’s industrial transformation through tailor-made and sustainable catalyst technologies
The three-tonne 241/900 sealed SRB is dimensionally equivalent to a standard SKF non-sealed version
Kistler has further enhanced its high-performance sensors in the KiTorq series, taking the transmission rate to 4 kHz and making the evaluation unit (stator) of this modular series four times as fast with Profinet or EtherCat interface
To manage oil field operation
BMW Regensburg installed in its plant, on a large ventilation fan, a multi-point automatic lubricator from Schaeffler, the FAG CONCEPT8, that helped save from 5 to 6 hours maintenance per month
Reducing cost of ownership while increasing power efficiency are two of the main goals for today’s OEMs. This translates into a higher demand for lubricants which offer a well-balanced formulation that can maintain engine health
The Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT led the EU research project “ambliFibre” focusing on the manufacturing of special pipes and pressure vessels able to withstand the extreme conditions for oil and gas transport in ultra deepwater
It allows precise pressure monitoring and airflow corrections for efficient and reliable handling of fragile materials
Can withstand extended exposure to very high UV levels, providing a new level of protection particularly for GRP field enclosures destined for rough environments
For boosting pumping station, Mitsubishi Electric released MAPS SCADA, an upgraded software implemented in Samara, Russia, for water treatment and water supply system
Corresponding knowledge and expertise are required to construct machines with a modular design that are capable of filling the milk powder cleanly, precisely and efficiently into the cans. This is why Swiss Can Machinery selected Kollmorgen
Featuring three separate compression stations for effervescent products, the technology is particularly ideal for pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals
Offering intrinsic safety and simple handling, the FieldConnex® Multi-Input Output (MIO) from Pepperl+Fuchs it’s a compact fieldbus component that allows to connect digital signals to the fieldbus via a single address
The simplest version offers high resolution and reproducibility for both measuring ranges (-1…30 bar and 0…300 bar), together with accuracy of 0.5 %FS and an integrated min/max memory
Thanks to the magnetic coupling, there is no physical connection between the tank’s interior and exterior. The encapsulated sensor provides permanent monitoring, regulation and data collection of the mixing process
Wastewater management is a critical issue to face in today’s industry. In this article, Surendra Mappana explains how dedicated water automation products are helping industrial water users and utilities address the key challenges
The new Hydro Coating features a percentage of organic solvents that is less than 3%, which is significantly more environmentally-friendly than the former hammer finish
Vibrations and pulsations in reciprocating compressors cause very often shutdown, failures and disruption of service. This is why controlling and assessing vibration problems at an early stage is pivotal
The water industry provides one of our most vital resources right to our doorstep, so minimum performance standards must be guaranteed. Raising efficiency becomes therefore the top priority to reduce energy costs
To guarantee the quality, consistency and safety of a product and reduce operational downtime, designing and implementing the best and most suitable food and beverage dispensing tubing solutions is a critical step
For 100 Gbps and 400 Gbps applications
Flir's infrared readout integrating circuits (ROICs) and new strain layer superlattice (SLS) detector materials
The Mobil Pegasus™ 1100 Series has been inspired by major OEMs to cope with severe engine conditions and significantly extend oil drain intervals
Offer increased chemical resistance
The proof-testing of safety instrumented systems in liquid level measurement applications has traditionally relied on workers in the field. However, new technology in modern smart devices is enabling this vital task to be performed remotely
INPEX's onshore and offshore facilities are the most modern in the world, being connected for almost 900 kilometers to a total of 25,000 safety-related input and output points thanks to HIMA’s safe Ethernet protocol
It detects any breakages or blockages in the sampling pipes, monitoring an area of up to 5760 square metres
