Inline measurement of liquid concentration and density

This company’s Platform 4 digital process refractometer system (photo) consists of a probe or compact refractometer and a graphical user interface. The refractometer is a standalone device that is capable of operating independently to provide inline measurement of liquid concentrations,…

Improved packaging efficiency through smart monitoring

The Quattro monitoring system (photo) delivers performance data, reports deviating values and makes processes and service easier to plan. To use Quattro system monitoring, the machine is equipped with a router. The data collected from the system are sent to…

Combining high-shear granulation with a fluid-bed dryer

The patent-pending TwinPro system (photo) unites two previously separate processes — high-shear granulation and fluid-bed drying — in a continuous batch process. Removing wet sieving and product transfer eliminates a critical step, which results in significantly less process time and…

These belt feeders have a new hygienic redesign

This company has completely re-designed its weigh-belt feeder to be more hygienic. The belts now feature PETG (copolymer of polyethylene terephthalate, PET and ethylene glycol) windows so that operators can perform unobstructed visual checks of bulk-material flow at any time.…

A new series of Atex-certified gas compressors

New K Series gas compressors (photo) provide a rotary-vane solution for gas treatment and processing applications. With 2.5 to 10 bars(g) pressure and up to 2,690 m 3 /h capacity, the K Series’ sturdy design meets stringent safety criteria. Moreover,…
