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.
Industrial scanners deliver real-time thermal imaging at scan speeds up to 300 Hz
Confirming the safety, efficacy and quality of medications is paramount in the pharmaceutical sector, which requires robust data governance strategies. In the world of Pharma 4.0, these need to accommodate an ever-increasing volume of data. Technologies that incorporate gigabit Ethernet and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) are exactly what is needed.

BASF is convinced of Ethernet-APL technology: it offers powerful and consistent digital communication in process automation from sensors to control levels. We talked to Andreas Ziegler, Automation Manager at BASF SE, about advantages and challenges.
Size matters – particularly in competitive markets such as pharma and nutraceuticals due to its direct result on costs. Tradichems patented Hipering® process begins right at the start of the process chain by miniaturizing the ingredients. Thanks to Piab’s piFLOW®p vacuum conveyor their patented process is continuously fed thus maintaining the required pressure level.
The current Microsoft Windows® 10 operating system is widely used in the automation industry. PCs and thin clients with Windows can be found in scores of today’s industrial applications. Windows 10, which was released in 2015, is available in several editions and has been continuously expanded with new features and security updates over the years.

Pressure measurement with different pressure port options
As a measurement technique, guided wave radar is established: the equipment is robust, the technology is mature, and the primary application niches have emerged. The problem - until now - was that the instrumentation was notoriously difficult to install.
Wastewater, sewage, effluents and sludge are useful sources of energy with the potential to heat (or in some circumstances cool) other products or materials in industrial processes.
The one of the biggest challenges in digitalization is the transformation of existing plants and processes. A WIKA project northern Germany proves that mechanical measuring instruments can also be integrated into the digital world.
