For fast installation on standard mounting plates
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.
Robust sensor series in miniature stainless steel housings for hygiene-sensitive production and packaging processes
For accurate measurement and data logging in mobile service applications
Avelino Corma Canós is being recognised on 4 July in Valencia for his work on synthetic catalysts to improve chemical reactions. His inventions are used today in the energy, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries among others. Corma is the inventor or co-inventor behind nearly 200 European patent applications and co-founded the Institute of Chemical Technology (ITQ), a joint centre from the Universitat Politècnica de València and the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC).
Precise liquid flow measurement and control in demanding environments
PCN Europe interviewed Rob Watkinson, Customer Support Manager at Resolve Optics about the design for optics able to withstand the high levels of radiation found in and around nuclear plants.
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.
Series in hygienic design with IP69 degree of protection
High precision and low power consumption for medical devices, food equipment and other applications
Minimised yellow tint to work with 1/3rd and 2/3rd-inches colour sensors

Highly robust solution for valve position feedback
For easy handling and cleaning without tools
With an international team, KABELSCHLEPP France implemented a robust and reliable cable carrier system for the safety valve at the hydroelectric power plant Châteauneuf du Rhône. The purpose of the valve, which moves across the entire power plant, is to prevent overspeed of the turbines. In an emergency, a very heavy barrier is used to block the ingress of water.

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.
