What comes to mind when you hear the word “app”? WhatsApp? TikTok? Linked-in? Broadening our scope from these examples that deliver entertainment and connection, what can apps do for users in the process industries? Quite simply, an app is an application software that generates benefits for the user - on your mobile device, in the cloud or on a server 'under the desk'. Let’s take a look at three apps for process instrumentation, exploring their different approaches as well as their advantages.
Standardization provides the basis for digitizing the process plant
Pharmaceutical powders form the basis for numerous antibiotics that are essential for comprehensive medical care. However, margins are low and production conditions are complex. This has led to a shift of manufacturing capacities to lower-cost markets. With this development in mind, how can supply bottlenecks be avoided? And what does it take to revive local production?
The DCS has been the link to production information from the plant floor for decades. We interviewed Mark Taft from ABB who gives a review on DCS technology, digital transformation, and sustainable production.

Technology for hydrogen generation expected to go into production in 2025
Endress+Hauser has expanded its center of competence for silicon pressure sensors in Stahnsdorf near Berlin, Germany at a cost of more than 12 million euros. A new production hall was added to the existing building to serve the growing demand for silicon pressure instrumentation. The expansion also includes a new office and laboratory building, as well as a large outdoor area and additional parking.
Building AI-based detection tools without being a specialist
For optimization of processes for many applications across industries
Users in process automation have the most to gain from insight through data from sensors and actuators. This is where the advanced physical layer for Ethernet, short Ethernet-APL comes in, the data highway to the field of process plants. Many questions must be answered when deploying Ethernet-APL for the first time. This article discusses topologies for Ethernet-APL that can be realized with currently available infrastructure components.
