Compact compressors for process gas applications with high-volume/high-pressure requirements
Maintenance-free plastic and zinc die-casting combination for enhanced robustness
An interview with David Hawley, ABB’s Global Head of Sales IEC LV Motors about the new IE6 Hyper-Efficiency motor technology for hazardous areas.
Flexibly adaptable components ensure reliable operation in environmental technology applications
A packaging line that doesn’t require several weeks of installation time? The LIGHTLINE series offers a solution that includes preconfigured machines designed for different packaging tasks – and speedy commissioning.
It wasn’t too long ago that hazardous zones and production zones were reasonably well separated. The areas where explosive gases, vapors, or combustible dusts were present tended to stay in their own very specific environments, and the equipment operating in those areas was specified accordingly. Today, however, that distinction is less clear.
Certification to ATEX and IECEx requirements enables IE6 technology to be deployed in hazardous areas
Direct driven blowers for economical and energy-efficient process air generation
Grinding organic waste into pumpable material for stable transport
A long-standing automation partnership between a Swiss machine builder and one of the world’s leading manufacturers of industrial robots is aiming to help transform the pharmaceutical supply chain in Europe with the launch of what is believed to be the ‘smallest’ automated palletising cell for vials and pre-filled syringes.
Making aluminium drives resistant to cleaning chemicals
Low weight, high power density and innovative sealing concept for easier maintenance
Easy-to-maintain solution provides opportunity for massive energy savings
Inductive heating is rapidly gaining importance in food processing and food-related packaging systems. The technology enables reproducible temperatures and short response times while meeting high hygiene standards. Kendrion consistently applies this proven principle to food and packaging machinery: with scalable systems for inductive heating and industrial surface heating. They generate heat exactly where it is needed: during transport, in the heating plate, in the container, or in the roller. Energy consumption is up to 50 percent lower than with gas or oil heaters.
ATEX and IECEx certified series with high power density and a wide range of mounting and encoder options
ELGi Compressors Europe, a subsidiary of ELGi Equipments Limited announced the transformative operational results achieved by its customer, Guttsta Källa AB, a century-old Swedish natural mineral water producer. By implementing a high-performance ELGi compressed air solution, Guttsta Källa has dramatically increased its production throughput while delivering substantial annual energy savings of 120,000 kWh, positioning the company for continued growth in the premium Swedish bottled water market.
For more resistant and durable aluminium drives in harsh environments
Smarter Motion. Stronger Performance
Looks matter, but they aren’t everything: long before croissants, biscuits or waffles are placed in protective packaging, manufacturers need to ensure that their contents are exactly as they should be. In upstream steps, producers pave the way for the highest quality, safety and shelf life of ready-to-eat products. Ingenious technologies that work towards this goal are always part of the packaging process.
