During a virtual press conference, JUMO GmbH & Co. KG reviewed the past months and gave an outlook on the future of the company. Despite Corona, the overall balance of the managing directors was positive.
The world is going digital - this applies to our private lives as well as to large parts of our work. In the process industries, the focus is often on end-to-end digital engineering, the analysis of big data, or the utilization of legacy data. But in what way can digitalization change daily work routines and increase work efficiency? A practical example is provided by the specialty chemicals company Lanxess, which has abandoned the classic clipboard, thus demonstrating very clearly what digitalization actually means and what benefits it offers.
We interviewed Andreas Hennecke, Pepperl+Fuchs Product Marketing Manager and Ambassador for Ethernet-APL about the development and possibilities of Ethernet-APL for the process industry.
Process plants are often very extensive. Many of the plant components are interlinked and their functions coordinated. People who work in this area of plant construction know that there is generally less effort and expense involved in building a new plant, rather than adapting the existing one to meet new requirements. Despite the numerous challenges – and the restrictions imposed by the Corona pandemic and its consequences – the new and renovated production reactors went into operation again right on schedule.

Autumn is the right time for the annual flu vaccination – at least in the northern hemisphere. South of the Equator, populations are vaccinated in the spring. Twice a year, pharmaceutical manufacturers need to produce millions of vaccine doses in a short time to meet demand for the protective drugs. An internationally active supplier relies on Schubert-Pharma to package its syringes containing the vaccine.

Addressing the demand for industry-standard compressed air in pharmaceutical manufacturing while delivering improvements in energy efficiency, sustainability and margin growth.
Today’s Industrial Ethernet connects any standard ethernet-based protocols. It flexibly integrates devices based on open and vendor-specific (safety) protocols.
"All-in-one" process for feed and fertiliser production
Wide flow range 0.005..150 l/min with integrated temperature measurement
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.
New modular platform offers high accuracy and stability at a low price
Just like cellulose, lignin and fats, proteins are renewable raw materials. Their potential for the chemical industry remains largely untapped. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV want to change that.
Intelligent feed silos on the farm, communicative waste containers in the city and mobile containers that “communicate” how full they are: The use of smart radar sensors VEGAPULS Air helps to optimise supply processes and save resources.
