The increasing digitalisation and integration of production processes is generating a host of information that needs to be available in the field and thus also in hazardous areas. This information includes system status, maintenance intervals, MES-relevant data and more. To meet these requirements, R. STAHL is launching the fully modular ORCA HMI operator stations.
In addition to the on-the-spot identification of more than 30 plastic types, PET-A can now also be distinguished from PET-G with a handheld device

Goods and products manufactured with industrial processes often contain water in various concentrations. To date, laboratory instruments have been the most common tools for measuring moisture. While the processes are highly precise, they also have disadvantages. Endress+Hauser is enhancing an existing level measurement technology so that it’s also capable of determining material characteristics, radar-based sensors supply real-time information regarding material moisture.
Every day, sensors in production plants collect huge amounts of data. However, companies seldom realise how valuable the correct evaluation of large amounts of data is. This creates data graves whose potential remains undiscovered. The Heubach Group had a similar experience. However, with Festo AX artificial intelligence, it was proven that benefits for maintenance, engineering and productivity can be achieved from central PID data.
Fluke Process Instruments will showcase temperature monitoring solutions for quality control in glass manufacturing, forming and coating processes at the glasstec trade fair in Düsseldorf, Germany from September 20 to 23.

For smart devices, use in the oil industry, for example on an offshore oil platform, represents a real endurance test. The Pepperl+Fuchs brand ECOM Instruments subjected the Visor-Ex® 01, the first system consisting of smart glasses and smartphone certified for use in hazardous areas, to this endurance test during its development phase. The practical test reveals great potential for rollout in future applications.

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.
